    2019 CX-9 interior lighting is way too harsh...How can I change it?

    Oh haha I thought you were talking about the accent light. Then yes chloeko is correct, those are standard bulbs and you can just replace them.

    2019 CX-9 interior lighting is way too harsh...How can I change it?

    There is a brightness setting for it. I haven't looked into changing the LED itself (if it can even be changed easily) but a cheap and easy "fix" would be to install yellow clear vinyl on top of it.

    2007~2015 Weird electrical problem

    Have your mechanic print out the codes that he read, and if he can't, go to AutoZone and have them scan it and they will give you a print out. Swapping the ECU should be easy, accessible from the engine bay. However, make sure that you are buying the correct PCM part number as it has different...

    What have you done to your CX-9 today?

    Rotated the tires today. My God they sure are heavy. One of them has been leaking air for the past weeks and I found a nail embedded into it.

    Mazda Dreaming

    Comparing gas vs electric cost per mile, electric is much much cheaper. A Tesla Model 3 with the 50 kWh battery for example which is good for 220 miles will cost about $8 in electricity costs (0.15 cents per kWh average). And that range doesn't change between city or highway driving, and...

    70.00.335 Firmware

    Yes and no. The phone says that Android Auto is connected, however you cannot switch to the AA system on the car. The dealer was useless, they didn't even knew that there has been an update released until I told them. I don't know what else changed with the update.

    DIY 2nd Generation CX-9: Dashcam installation

    For 2019 users with HomeLink mirrors, the constant 12v hot is the pin just above the switched 12v in petesamprs's install pictures.

    Well...that was lame.

    Who actually uses the AA home button on the screen rather than just pressing the Home button on the car? All your visual complaints, specially ACP having actual icons, will be addressed on the upcoming AA update later this year. https://youtu.be/0Wz0Heig3TQ

    70.00.335 Firmware

    Happy to report that Android Pie works on version .335 of the infotainment software.

    Well...that was lame.

    Carplay and AA will more or less look the same on the screen come later this year when AA gets a massive update. It will have the individual little icons for the AA apps. In any case, AA/CarPlay is world's ahead of the Mazda OEM navigation. The only merit it actually has for me is that you can...

    Anyone have trouble deciding between the CX-5 and CX-9?

    We chose the CX-9 for the space. We do multiple camping trips every year (plus trips to NJ from WI) and we can fit everything we need with the 3rd row folded. The 3rd row was just a bonus for us, nice to have it when needed.

    What have you done to your CX-9 today?

    For the painted surfaces, 2 step with Meguiar's 205 polish and Wolfgang Deep Gloss sealant. I also used the sealant on all chrome trim and outside glass. For the black exterior plastics and tires AMMONYC Mud.
