Discussing how CX-9 2016+ models outside of the US and Canada have an additional transmission oil cooler:
I am not sure exactly where i originally found the info, but digging back into it there is a hint in the AC condenser TSB, stating that US and Canada are « without ATF oil cooler #2 » and...
Saw my first CX-70 on my local dealer lot today. (The white car, the others are CX-90)
Not much else to say, other than I find that those front intake looks a lot better in photo than in person. In photos I liked the CX-70 bumper better, but in person I am not sure. In person they are pretty...
Was just watching this video and they mentioned Mazda will be holding a CX-70 driving event for reviewers in May.
We can expect driven reviews to come out after.
That was a bit of a surprise to me because I assumed the CX-70 would drive exactly like the CX-90 since it is supposed to only have...
Hi everyone,
I know this has been reviewed on the internet tons of time, but mow that the CX-70 is not what i expected i am looking at other high end brands and noticing a lot of people are leasing.
I honestly don’t understand how the leasing make financial sense, so I am hoping people here...

Posting this here because they just posted their review of the PHEV. I think combined with their previous video of the inline 6 vs the telluride this makes it a pretty complete set of reviews, altough i am still looking forward to savagegeese review to come out on it.
The other thing they...
For those that have the stock 18inch wheels on gen 2, what is the tire pressure rating for them? I downsize from 20 to 18 in winter. For now i have been going with the 20 inch tire pressure requirement marked in the driver door sil, but curious to see if it is different for the 18 inches.
For those the like tinkering, here is the first hint that I found that wireless CarPlay could be added to the CX-9 by swapping the CMU (and potentially GPS cable and antenna). Some users have done it successfully on Miata's. What you would need is either a Canadian CX-9 2021 CMU or a mazda 6 or...

1. access the back of the fog light. To do so, you can partially peel back the front over fender and then the front mud...

Hi everyone,
just found this TSB not too long ago and thought it was interesting.

Long story short, there seems to be a risk that the heater core gets plugged by debris which would result in poor cabin heater performance. The...

Is anyone having issues with apple carplay and iphone 11 ? I am looking to upgrade phones but seeing on a lot of forum/website that many cars are having connection problems with the iphone 11 and that Apple hasn’t found a fix yet. I am curious to see if anyone has experienced the same problem...
This is a DIY How-To to shut off the overhead console ambient light for those that find it too bright and distracting but still want to keep the rest of the ambient lighting on. I just completed this and have not fully tested the result yet. Will update the post if I find any unwanted effect...

I am looking at installing a remote starter for my 2018 CX-9 GT. I went through the forum and I am set on doing the install myself of a Fortin EVO-One (lots of great help on this one from this forum.)
I have also read comments on here of people being disappointed in the fact that...
