here you go kornholio , no door panel removal required, this is a very simple fix, just that small triangular plastic trim pops out....
skip to 11:40 mark....
understood,
but I mean with nothing connected
still go into "COMMUNICATIONS" and under "TEXT" and "EMAIL"
delete the text messages and e-mails that are still there local to the infotainment database / memory
to make more memory space
Just a thought guys, maybe try deleting some text messages or emails? To make room for the infotainment internal memory?
I know on my old CX9 it stopped loading text messages once the miniscule internal memory was full, on the old CX9, once I deleted the text messages from my phone and when it...
nope, stupid emissions monitors still won't set, I think the PCM computer is messed up, now I have to leave it in my driveway so I don't get a ticket, using a relative's car in the meantime
I'm not going to pay any more money to fix, I've had enough of the constant PTU oil changes, jerking...
yep, I disconnected and resetted all the monitors,
only getting the following data : mass airflow, short term fuel trim data, coolant temp.
I can't get evap, O2 sensors, heated O2 , fuel, catalytic sensors to set ?
They say keep driving , need to complete the drive cycles, I kept following this, and let me tell you it's not easy when there's traffic ! these drive cycles are so stupid, it's actually dangerous.... I'm out of town 8/30 to 8/31, so I got to get it right tomorrow otherwise I have to park...
Based on your post, I just checked mine in the garage and sure enough my U-joint is shot also, I believe this is the cause of the rear vibrations I've been feeling during acceleration and deceleration for the psst month, I thought it was my catalytic going bad.
BUT I've got it worse than...
this is not good guys, I failed emissions too !! this sucks, need to get this to pass in two days or my inspections sticker expires,
no check engine light or anything, just failed for monitors not ready, engine has been running rough during heavy acceleration, I can feel the whole...
I was skeptical that the dealer can take out the whole PTU for only $135, I just lifted up my CX-9 and checked,
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE for this job to be only $135
see picture below, the PTU is shoe-horned in very tight, to get it out you need to remove the whole exhaust pipe network
AND the...
yep, ridiculously small capacity for the size of the Cx-9!! only 1/2 liter!!
I'm at ~ 110,000 miles now with no problems ever, I think even 20K is pushing it,
I just change PTU oil every time I change my engine oil ~6500 miles
below is straight out of the owner's manual, I'm really...
I think most owners buy the one from Amazon , one of the reviewers confirmed it fits the CX-9

What a coincidence, my gear shift light just went out two days ago, this is the exact bulb replacement you need, I bought off ebay,

I followed the video on YouTube to get to the light bulb
Hopes this helps....
Excellent video!! kulkarnipb ,
that's exactly how I change mine every time I change my engine oil ~every 6000 miles, I change the transfer case oil also,
now over 100,000 odometer miles, still on my original OEM transfer case with no issues/leaks.
Since you've changed for the first time...
It develops over time especially during fall season, I think it must be the trees from my work parking lot and all the dried leaves and crap that gets into the vents at the windshield base.
It's a very common problem with the CX-9, if you search this forum, you'll see at least 5 different...
you have a clogged drain,
you need to unclog it asap, otherwise your passenger side carpet will start getting wet and mold/mildew will set in
see videos below how to unclog the drain, the drain hole is underneath near the driver side seat by the heat shield,
you need to bend the heat...
Wow, you are da man kulkarnipb, lots of good information here, much appreciated for the hard work, thanks for posting. I'll be referring to your post when I upgrade.
One question, how did you connect the parking brake bypass? I see three wires on the parking brake bypass and one parking brake...
I've done the transmission flush at the dealer regularly since new every 30,000 miles, I don't think you can do a flush yourself, you need to hook up to a special machine.
Some people believe transmission flushing is bad if you haven't done it ever before and you're over 60,000 miles.
They...
Hi Njsarge,
With a brand new PTU, you should be good for at least 30,000 miles. I didn't change my PTU for the very first time until 38,000 miles (note: there was signs of sludge on the plug). I would have done it a lot sooner but there just was no "how-to" on the procedure so I bit the...
Easy fix, you've got a slow clog, need to unclog it, see video link

I'm assuming you already disconnected the interlock cable per Mazda bulletin ? http://ww2.justanswer.com/uploads/ChryslerTech10/2012-04-12_181603_170013709.jpg
