    The "CX-9" was just foam tape. I just have the "Mazda" on the car now.

    Rust appearing on tailgate-beware

    My new 08 CX-9 has this problem too. The dealer got the bodywork estimate and once they have approval from Mazda Canada, they will repair. Update: The repainting was completed in 3 days. Looks good now although I don't know if the underlying cause of the rust was fixed. They had to remove...

    What did you pay for your 08 CX-9

    I bought an 08 CX-9 GT last November. I paid $36K + freight and PDI + taxes. Mazda was having a big cash discount back then (maybe still do), and I negotiated them down a bit more.

    How the AWD works in the CX-9

    So if I'm interpreting the last two messages correctly, the car will go in and out of AWD without me knowing? There's no indication that it is in the AWD mode and the light is really indicating a problem with the AWD system?

    How the AWD works in the CX-9

    I've been driving my AWD GT on some pretty slippery snow and ice covered roads, but the car has never switched to AWD (or at least I can't tell). I only see the brief flash of 4WD light in the speedometer when I start the car, but never when it is running. Is that normal? I've been pretty...

    Heated seats?

    I'm a new owner of an 08 GT and primarily bought the GT for the heated leather seats. However, my wife complains that the passenger seat does not get that warm (or quickly enough). I think the driver side is fine. Has anyone experienced the same thing? Can anything be done about it?

    Rear Climate Control Problem

    I just got my CX-9 and having the same problem. Has anyone figured this out yet? I read the manual, but it is very confusing. I set the Mode to the face setting, cranked up the fan, but still no air coming out of the rear upper vents (just bottom).
