    Cracked Cylinder Head (2018 CX-9)

    I am not a fan of prepaid credit card, but that is what everyone is doing nowadays, even the new tire rebates are now given in prepaid card. But i don’t understand why you say there are fees. These prepaid credit cards don’t have fees associated with them.

    Cracked Cylinder Head (2018 CX-9)

    You said the second engine failed a month later, why wasn’t the second engine fixed on warranty from the install? Was it a used engine?

    Help electrical issues 2011 CX-9

    It sounds like the alternator. Basically, the alternator does not charge the battery so it dies while you are driving, but after being left alone for a long time the battery regains just enough charge to be driven a little bit. When you boost the car , you charge the battery a bit and it works...

    Active driving display issues after navi update

    I don’t have a lot of experience with it but i think it should at least let you do a reinstall of the map update on the sd-card.

    Active driving display issues after navi update

    I am not sure how to solve it but it may be caused by the map update. The system uses the speed recorded in the maps when a sign has not been detected by the cameras. It kind of looks likes your map database has all these roads identified at 30mph. Maybe you could try reinstalling the maps from...

    CX-5 2.5L 194hp vs 187hp engine differences?

    Also found out following the wikipedia link that the mazda 3 in North America has the 191 hp version of the 2.5L engine with a compression ratio of 13.0:1. So that removes both the octane and the compression ratio argument from the equation. The 191hp version of the engine is available in North...

    CX-5 2.5L 194hp vs 187hp engine differences?

    There may be more to the story. I just went on the UK mazda website and I see that the 2.5 lt engine is rated at 194ps. Notice that it is in “ps” and not hp. Based on the article below, ps is also horsepower, but measured slightly differently. The article quote that 1 ps = 0.986hp. So that would...

    Frozen winshield wiper fluid

    I would blame the washer fluid. I am in Canada and my washer fluid isn’t freezing at 0 F in my 2018 CX-9. Your volvo’s and Lexus may have had heated washer fluid though, which the Mazda doesn’t.

    CX-9 2.5T Engine Coolant Leaking TSB

    I am not 100% sure but I am thinking that it may be more of an issue of the warranty of the repair component. If the original repair was done by mazda under the initial warranty then I would see how long that warranty is. That warranty depends on the laws of your state and also on various Mazda...

    2022 CX-9 Battery goes dead, then resurrects...

    Most likely your car stayed on and ran the battery down. But after being boosted and driven a bit then it had enough charges to restart the car and act normally. I also recommend you charge it now to bring it to a good charge level since it is likely still low. But once charged it will likely...

    Turbo CX-5 Coolant Issue questions

    Mazda believes they have fixed the issue with the 2021 model and up. There was a redesigned cylinder head i believe. Time will tell. But in my own observations the quantity of cracked head reported here in the forum has reduced significantly since about a year or two. Also most 2021 are still...

    Dawn and Dusk driving with no tail lights

    A lot of cars have the light turn on in the day when the wipers are activated. It depends on the models but a lot of the Mazda’s do it. With those models you don’t even have to leave it out of auto during rain and snow.
