Thank you very much, jal142 - I appreciate the link. This looks like the most accurate information we're going to find for now. I'll aim to torque the drain plug to 25 ft lbs and hope that does the trick.

Thanks for the quick reply. By "hand tight", are you referring to the drain plug or the oil filter? I've typically done the latter slightly more than hand tight without issues, but I don't think you can get away with the same with the oil drain plug. You need to slightly "crush" the metal...

Agree, this should not be happening on a brand new car. It's my wife's car, and she noticed the problem on her drive home yesterday. Yes, we did re-start the car (didn't help). I wasn't sure if there was an Infotainment system setting for the wipers (hence my question). The next step is to take...

Hi all, we recently bought a 2016 CX-9 Grand Touring. The car currently has less than 5000 miles on it, and the front windshield wipers inexplicably stopped working today. The rear wiper still works fine, and I can get wiper fluid to spray on both the front and back windows, so the column stalk...
