    Mazda CX-9 starting issue…Help

    May be unrelated, because it is not consistent with the bogging down while driving and is a different engine, but I had a 2010 mazda 3 that would do the same at start. It would crank and start the first time, but if i missed it the first time then after that it would just turnover and not...

    Dashboard displays 2 malfunctions in cold weather

    I am not sure. I don’t think we can say for sure it is the brake fluid or not, other than to say that it may be it. When it happened to me because of the brakes it was intermittent. Could also be battery related, if it is 5 year old it might be getting old and low when it is cold in the...

    Dashboard displays 2 malfunctions in cold weather

    The frost on the windshield or direct sunlight would trigger the camera sensor error message and not the Front radar system malfunction error. They look similar but the messages identifies which sensor is at cause. The Radar is in the Mazda emblem at the front of the car. If it is dirty it can...

    2019~2025 Mazda3 New wheels and tire size...Am I nuts?

    Nothing wrong with steelies. Up here in winter a lot of people use them to swap their winter tires and run them for 6 month, so you would only look out of place during the summer months. You are also forgetting about wheel cover/hub caps, you can throw some cover on them and it won’t look as out...

    [SOLVED] Loud noise when rolling very slowly, engine on or off doesn't matter

    The other thing i was wondering is if it could be a symptom of the common transfer case issue in those model year ( if it is AWD).

    [SOLVED] Loud noise when rolling very slowly, engine on or off doesn't matter

    Have the brake inspected (or do it yourself if you have the skill). My Cx-9 was doing a bad screeching when backing only and it was a clip that had detached and was rubbing when going backward. My sound was different than yours but the symptom was the same. It could be something else related to...

    Fuel efficiency issue?

    It wasn’t easy to find but this guy points them out at 1:19 in this video. I don’t have any source, but it is possible the turbo may not have them because it is also where the intercooler is.

    Fuel efficiency issue?

    It is possible they caused an issue with the active grill shutter, but it is more likely just the computer relearning the range estimate. Other possible options would be if they didn’t reassemble the air intake properly.

    Interesting observation when charging battery

    I have only changed my battery once on my 2018. And that was last year. I expect it will last me at least 4 years.

    Can’t access some Apple CarPlay widgets

    The number of widgets displayed depends on the size of the screen. My 2018 CX-9 shows 1, my BMW shows 2. You can edit which widgets gets shown in your phone settings, but you cannot as far as I know make it show more widgets at once (there is no option that I can see to make it show 2 smaller...

    2020 CX-9 cargo cover mechanics?

    Actually checked the photo on the link you provided and it looks like the left and right catch are different from each other.

    2020 CX-9 cargo cover mechanics?

    You need 2 catch and 2 x trim cover (one for each side, not sure if thebleft and the right are identical or not). They don’t come with the car and should have come in the box with the cargo cover. If it was bought used it is possible they were left in the previous car.

    Issue with CX-9 Fuel Consumption reading?

    Might be worth looking into replacing the spark plugs, that is about when they are due. Other possible cause could be a stuck brake caliper, although if it was that bad you would probably smell the burnt brake pads. If you are only doing city driving and a lot of idling it could show that...

    Interchangeable Wheels?

    Width does not affect it. It is because the combination of the wheels diameter (21 inch) + the tire thickness does not equal the same total diameter as the CX-9 20 inch wheels + the CX-9 tire diameter. If wheel and tire combine to be a larger diameter, then the wheel will turn more slowly for...

    Interchangeable Wheels?

    if you do your speedometer will read low, but not by much. I think you will be driving 1 or 2 mph faster than indicated

    Interchangeable Wheels?

    According to wheel-size.com The CX-9 20 inch wheels are 8.5J x ET 45 CX-90 21 inch are 9.5J x ET 45 When you compare the wheels the CX-90 rim will stick out 1/2 inch on both side (towards the outside and the inside). That is probably fine but check the clearance on your CX-9. I don’t...
