I'm able to get it open by just giving it slight pressure upwards, after pulling the cable. I didn't hear it release but it did. Any one have info or write ups on replacing the broken latch? Only saw something on a Mazda3, nothing on the CX vehicles on my search.

Hey guys. My 2018 CX9 GT has a broken hood latch. Went to check the oil etc the other day and when I pulled on it, I heard the spring recoil and the latch has no play. The hood is still in the lock or closed position, can't get my finger in. I didn't want to start jamming a screw driver into...

Really easy to cross thread as the angle is a bit tough, even using your fingers to start. Not sure how others managed this but if it doesn't go in right away, walk away from it for a half hour and regroup -- worth it to be patient with the thing. No issues on my McGiver'd 4th plug housing so...

Any update to this? Car been down since July?

Right!?! They were serviced by the dealer, I think they swapped them around and re greased etc to get extra life out of it. Didn't think it was that bad until I started hearing the metal pins rubbing..

It's a great write up, though I assume your intent was to imply sass than anything else. To be clear, the bolt broke off before it was 1/4 way in, likely was broken but left for me to find as I had no torque using a 4 inch 🔧. Meh. The plastic housing that's holding the nut on the valve cover...

Thanks guys! You know, you take your time and sometimes sh*t still gets greasy... But, live and learn. I'll post more pictures of the fix when I source that tap. For now, I'll drive it around with a few additional tools on hand in the event it slips out.

So I need a lil help plz! 2018 CX9 GT-- original owner with 127k kms. I just sourced NGK Iridium plugs, the same mentioned here by the OP. Looked at a few videos and write ups and decided to take on the job. The change itself is easy except for the problem that I ran into. The plug on the far...

Dangggg... Consider yourself lucky! 91 is the highest octane in Canada from Costco (from what I've seen thus far)

Hmm, do a search for it. It's there and full of info from multiple users.
