My neighbors have a 2010 CX-9, which I discussed in this thread. About a month ago they noticed oil spots in the driveway. Took it to Mazda, they identified leak in oil pan area, and supposedly fixed it. Two days later leaking again. This time Mazda says oil pan issue. They had to keep the...

Turned my CX-9 in today, as lease ended. I must say I was very pleased with the vehicle. It was very reliable. Only had a few issues, such as brake pad replacement (TSB), broken gas cap tether, piece of trim fell off, power seat harness (recall). Never failed to start or left me stranded. Lots...

Just made the final lease payment on my CX-9. It will be gone the first week of November. A contractor came out to my place of work a few days ago and did the final inspection for lease end turn-in. Fine vehicle that I really enjoyed.

Anyone try these paint pens? I'm thinking of ordering a few.

My neighbors have 2 small children, and drive a Nissan Maxima and Honda Accord, which they bought before they became parents. Last week they told me they needed something bigger, and they were test driving SUVs. Jeff said they narrowed their search down to a Hyundai Veracruz. I suggested they...

Looked closer at my new Nitto tires, as discussed in this thread, and was surprised at what I found. Nitto is a Japanese company.

Stopped by a Goodyear store today as I'm looking for replacement tires for my CX-9. Clerk showed me a fairly new tire - Nitto 850 CUV. Haven't seen this tire mentioned here. They are available in 245/60R18 and 245/50R20. Both V rated, 500 UTQG Treadwear, Traction: AA, Temperature: A. I was...

Drives me crazy! Brakes squeal loudly when I back out of my garage or a parking slot, but never squeal when applied while moving forward. (confused) Anyone else?

This drives me nut. Sometimes my CX-9 Bluetooth will dial a number all by itself. When it happens it's usually to the last number I dialed from my cell. For example, I was driving down the road today when my stereo muted, and I hear "hello". It's my wife, and I did not initiate the call, nor did...

This thread will be a bit different, as most folks look to purchase a quality tire to replace the OEM Bridgestone tires. I'm just looking for cheap. The lease on my CX-9 will end in 11 months. I have about 21,000 miles on the OEM tires. Stopped by Discount Tire today, and the tech said I'm at...

Now through Saturday, 28 Nov, receive a $50 discount when you order any tires at DiscountTire.Com. I just checked, and "out the door" installed price for Yokohama Parada Spec-X on my GT is $806.91. This is cheaper than ordering from Tire Rack and paying an installer (at least in my area).

Anyone ever considered on of these for their CX-9?

Took the CX-9 to local car wash today. As I was about to leave the manager ran up to me and handed me a trim piece that fell off during the wash. I dropped by my Mazda dealer to see if they could glue it back on. Service manager said best bet was to order an entire new insert, so now I wait for...

I bet CX9 SportOwner can top this!

Just wondering how many of you applied the Zoom Zoom sticker that Mazda sent you. I placed mine just under the HMSL. Not too easy to make out in this photo, but it is easily seen.

Any of you suffer these issues? 1. I just purchased a Palm Centro cell phone. The Mazda Web Site says the Centro is fully compatible with the CX-9. It does work well except for when I receive a call--I do not get any sound, and do not have to push the Bluetooth button on the steering wheel. I...
