    Is the CX-90 Really that Bad? Owner Feedback?

    @clownshoes2 Great to hear, do you know what trim you had (S, non-S, etc)? Was it the PHEV or a MHEV variant?

    Is the CX-90 Really that Bad? Owner Feedback?

    Thanks so much for sharing your insights @Jon12232 ! I believe you're one of the first to have some quality hands on experience with both a CX-90 and a CX-70, so your feedback is really valuable to the community! Many have wondered, if the CX-70 drove any differently than the CX-90. Perhaps...

    Is the CX-90 Really that Bad? Owner Feedback?

    @Euroken , hope you're doing well these days. Just curious, how's the CX-90 holding up? Did you end up going on that road trip?

    Is the CX-90 Really that Bad? Owner Feedback?

    Seems to check out: https://www.0-60specs.com/mazda/cx-9-0-60-times https://www.0-60specs.com/mazda/cx-90-0-60-times Also the NA V6 probably didn't have nearly as much low end torque as the turbo charged i4 or i6, so it probably "felt" slower too off the line, compared to the newer motors. I...

    Is the CX-90 Really that Bad? Owner Feedback?

    Being an active member on this forum, I did see the second link you posted, from here. I was just trying to get more owners to chime in from here... I also just read the first link you posted, interesting... seems like the CX90 may be a bit hard to live with. I also read through reddit posts...

    Is the CX-90 Really that Bad? Owner Feedback?

    This applies to the CX-90 in general, however for acceleration, I’m mainly concerned about the Inline 6 versions, as that’s what I’m probably more prone to purchasing rather than the PHEV, however, the other criteria should still apply to the CX-90 in general. After watching a combination of...

    2024 vs 2025 CX-90...Worth waiting for..?

    Seeing that cabin size is a primary issue/priority for you and your husband, it may be worth checking out the 24' first to see if you and your husband fit more comfortably in there than your CX-5 before even considering the 25' CX-90 as the cabin/body will undoubtedly be the same. From there...

    Dealer overfills oil by half liter or so...Why?

    Back in the day, I used to notice this too, and I had confronted the dealership to show them and ask them how this happened. I was told that the amount of oil is preset by their machine so it's exactly what is specified for the car... however, the dealership doesn't allow for enough time in...

    Mazda CX-70 buying decision and timing

    Beautifully stated my friend. I, like many others, were anticipating/hoping for what you had described for the CX70. Unfortunately it seems like Mazda didn't quite have the budget for another bespoke product and rehashed the CX90 with the deletion of the 3rd row (in all honesty though, I...

    CX-70 Driving event for reviewers in May

    I was wondering about this myself, did Mazda fix/address the CX90's drivetrain issues with the CX70? I was trying to find a back-to-back/side-by-side driving review between the CX70 and CX90 to see if the complaints have been addressed. Savagegeese's review did not hold back, darn near trashed...

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    Wow! That is some wreck, glad you and your family made it out ok to tell the story! I can see why Mazda has a special place in your heart. Nice on the Mazda3S, you must've taken really good care of it. The 12' Mazda had one of the most robust drive train combinations in Mazda's arsenal, an...

    Poll 2.5T Coolant Leak/Engine Replacement

    Out of curiosity, which particular model did you have the most mileage on? Mazda can certainly build some decent stuff, but one power train from them is not always indicative of another power train from them. I have a 2005 Mazda 3i with a manual a transmission, pretty much a bullet proof...

    Shopping for a CX-9, should I avoid 2020 and earlier?

    That was my other consideration, getting a CPO model, like you had mentioned earlier in the thread. 7 years 100k from when it was brand new. The 2.5 L Turbo is utilized across the lineup (with the exception of the CX-90), Mazda is well vested into it. I would hope they would finally perfect...

    Shopping for a CX-9, should I avoid 2020 and earlier?

    I was just thinking of starting a thread on this topic, but I suppose I'll post here as I'm considering similarly. I had my eye on a 2nd gen CX9 for a while, but it was never urgent, now that the 2nd gen is discontinued it's still on my radar (I looked at the CX-90, but it seems to have too...

    Mazda3 Rust recall

    Any updates on this? I still have my Mazda from 05', rear fender is rusted out. If they actually recalled this and repaired it for free, that'd be pretty nice.

    2nd Gen CX-9 High mileage club, how's it holding up?

    Yeah, I can imagine, it'll be a long 5k miles before you can start driving it normal again, :( .

    2nd Gen CX-9 High mileage club, how's it holding up?

    Thanks for the update Pele, hope Brown's does a great job with the engine installation on your CX9 (I've had good experiences with them in the past). Let us know how the car feels once you get it back.

    2nd Gen CX-9 High mileage club, how's it holding up?

    We can check the part number to hone in on it, but I believe it was Model Year 2020 that they made the engine revisions: https://news.mazdausa.com/2019-10-29-Far-From-Ordinary-2020-Mazda-Cx-9-Receives-Inspiring-Elegant-Enhancements

    @rguerreiro92 Did you ever resolve your issues? Including the P2188 code?

    2nd Gen CX-9 High mileage club, how's it holding up?

    That's actually a valid question! We don't know the history or story behind that CX-9(it could have had at least one engine replaced for all we know), at least on these forums I don't think we've come across a 2nd gen over 100k miles that hasn't had the dreaded engine block leak issue. That's...
