    Satellite Confusion

    Interesting...I don't have anything near the roof or rear window (2012) so I assumed the thingy up front was the sat antenna. Is it one of those small shark fin looking things? I do have a rather large box behind the rear view mirror against the windshield, wonder if it's in there? I no...

    Satellite Confusion

    Brad, is there a small black box glued to the upper edge of the windshield, just to the right of the rear-view mirror? It may have a small antenna poking out each side. That's the satellite antenna. If that's there, your car should be Sirius/XM capable. And, your stereo should have the...

    driver side door upper corner wind noise

    I'd check the door hinges and latches to make sure everything is tight & aligned correctly. You could also check the weather stripping to make sure it isn't loose, misaligned, or deformed / damaged. With 1/8" gap it could be as simple as the rubber gasket being off, but enough to make an...

    CX-9 Remote start- cars starts that shuts off

    I stumbled across a button in the driver's foot well on the left side wall by the brake pedal. According to this thread I started last year, the info I got referred to it as a reset/programming button for the remote start option. Might be something there you can do to reset your system...

    CX9 Nav Satellite Code

    You may want to try calling Sirius or XM also - could possibly have it recorded via the VIN if the prior owner had a subscription or free trial for any period of time. They track accounts via the Radio ID or VIN.

    CX9 Nav Satellite Code

    You usually tune the radio to channel 0 or 1 and the "Radio ID" appears in the display. I believe my 2012 has it on channel 1.

    CX-9 Picture Thread

    Heh, no more pictures unfortunately. I got around 12-15 IIRC, didn't keep too close track. But I used about as much fuel as I typically do on that same run without all the gear maybe a little more. Honestly couldn't tell I had stuff on the roof or behind me, it was surprisingly stable and...

    Cannot decode vin number

    Have you tried to create an owner profile on mymazda.com? That would verify for sure if the VIN is correct. BuffFan

    Mystery switch in driver's foot well

    Was vacuuming the drivers side of my '12 CX9 and noticed this doo-hickey poking out of the left side panel, just to the left of the parking brake pedal. ...it appears to be some type of contact or pressure switch. I tried to trace the wires back without removing too many panels but it just...

    What options can be dealer adjusted with MMDS?

    Hello all, Is there a consolidated list of programmable options only the dealer can make (presumably with the MMDS) on the CX9? I've seen several threads make reference to a "dealer-only adjustable option" for various things. I searched through the owner's manual and the CX9 forums here and...

    Passenger seat airbag sensor - car discriminates!

    I have a weird one, wondering if anyone else has seen this -- My 13-year old son is about 5' tall and around 110 lbs. When he sits in the front passenger seat the 'airbag off' light (or whatever it's called) turns on/off randomly. Sometimes he gets in and the light never turns on, other...

    Battery for 2009 CX-9

    Typically for something like a battery change on a car this new, it should retain the radio presets unless you're leaving it disconnected for days. My 2012 owners manual has a battery part # of 12V-55AH/5HR. Looks like 585CCA. Your needs will vary depend on where you live and if you store the...
