    Looking for credible place to buy Mazda air filters online or ebay

    Purolator One's are fantastic filters. They definitely are a worthy replacement if you can't find OEM.

    Oil filter change and recommended filter cap wrench

    Guide pin grease question

    Dude, I even used it on my weatherstrip rubbers! Great for spark plug boots, too. I have a tiny bit left, and I was actually going to order another can this weekend before I saw this thread.

    2007~2015 CX-9 Transmission drain/fill, only a single drain plug (no inner/outer)?

    I use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum in everything except my Porsches. And I also always, ALWAYS stick to OEM oil filters. My Silverado get an AC Delco, my mom's Grand Marquis gets a Motorcraft (because what else would an elderly church lady drive? ;)), and my Mazdas get Mazda filters. The CX-9 gets...

    What in the world is going on here? Edit: Fixed!

    GOT IT! It's been raining non-stop for the last week, and honestly, this isn't the first time I've had this symptom, we had it earlier this year, but it miracled itself better.

    Click click click, and the funny part, it stops when you open the door, but then starts again when you reopen it. This is so damned weird. https://photos.app.goo.gl/H2CT3QoLEaAy4QBu8 2013 CX-5

    2016~2023 8" speakers fit perfectly in the CX-9 doors!

    They've been around for over 50 years. They were HUGE back in the 80's and 90's. Here's an old issue of Car Audio and Electronics with Axl Rose's BMW using Linear Power amps! https://www.facebook.com/oldschoolcaraudio/posts/axl-rose-car-audio-magazine-august-1990/2033367143401845/
