    2016 CX-9 Real World MPG

    WOW, I like the graphics. My 2015 doesn't have that....I don't think my wife's 2016 CX-5GT does that! Cool! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    2016 CX-9 Real World MPG

    Folks, I am getting 19-23mpg in my 2015 CX-9 GT with the V-6. This -9 is getting better mileage than my 2009 or 2011 models, so maybe they have done some better mapping of shift points, etc. I am taking it easy on the right foot (this week I am driving my son's Speed 3, so no such restraint...

    How many miles do you have on your CX-9

    My newest CX-9 is a 2015 and it has 22,000 on it. My 2011 had 130,000 before I traded it and my 2009 has 140,000 before I traded it. Great cars. My 2011 had a vacuum pump fail but otherwise it was just tires and routine maintaining. I put rear brakes on the 2011, which was weird, but I think...

    Test drove a CX-9 Signature "dreadful A/C" is correct

    Wanna bet? I am too tall for a Miata, though I would love to be able to fit into one. Since I like to apex a corner at a touch more than what is a reasonable speed to my wife and most other folks, except my son who drives a Speed 3. Sorrento, Santa Fe, et al do not handle in a way I would...

    Test drove a CX-9 Signature "dreadful A/C" is correct

    See my previous note about the change in the dash design to make it look and act like the CX-5. I compared the vent size and design between my wife's 2016 CX-5 and my 2015 CX-9. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    CX-9 spark plug replacement Dealer quoted $350 ?

    I'd do the 60K maintenance package which includes the plugs. On my 2009 and 2011 GT's I was amazed that the plugs looked really great at 60K miles. I had mine changed as part of the package. My current GT is a 2015 with only 14K miles so I have some time. The other amazing thing is that the...

    Low cost upgrades on my 2013 Mazda CX 9 Grand Touring. Take the boring out.

    Those Zenon's are really sharp. Are they bulbs or HID lights? I have a '15 CX-9 and a '16 CX-5 and I would like to convert both. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Test drove a CX-9 Signature "dreadful A/C" is correct

    The way we go through windshields here it would be too expensive. Tinters here say it's illegal to tint the windshield in AZ **********************************

    Test drove a CX-9 Signature "dreadful A/C" is correct

    I believe it is design. The new 9 has an interior design very similar to the '16 CX-5. We have one and also a '15 CX-9, both GT. We live in the Phoenix area. My 9 cools with much more cold air than the wife's 5. I took hers back for check right after we got it and the dlr said all was good...

    What other Mazda's do you own currently.

    I got my wife a 2016 CX-5 GT with the Tech Package. She loves it, and so do I. The driver's seat is not as adjustable as my CX-9 but it has an incredible amount of headroom. This is my first vehicle with a sunroof. I'm too long in the torso to be able to fit in a CX-9 with a sunroof, but the...

    Just joined the CX9 Family

    I've had a 2009 and now a 2011...my 2011 is at 107,200 miles and it looks brand new and runs great. The dealership said it was the best CX-9 he's seen because I have faithfully maintained it. In this mileage, I have only replaced the rear brakes, resurfaced the front rotors and done the normal...
