I REALLY like the color! You just don’t see it in my neck of the woods.

2019 cx9 here and I suspect it’s the same. As others have said just a little extra lift via ramps or even a couple of planks you have laying around makes this an extremely easy job. 15 minute process unless you want to let it really drain. On mine the underbody shroud has a panel held in place...

Same here only at a Toyota store. The “free“ tire rotation, oil and filter change only consisted of fresh oil in my new at the time tundra. I’ve always changed my own oil but I figured it’s free so why not. What’s bad is that they denied it. Lost my business at from that point forward. Love the...

Do you keep your fob in your pocket? When I do and I’m in range I’ve found the buttons are really easy to activate. More than once I’ve had the rear hatch to open and/or the doors lock simply from squatting down or laying on the couch. May or may not be your problem but thought I’d throw it out...

My 2 cents. Unless you notice anything unusual leave it and switch back at the next change. I’m sure there will be all kinds of debate on this but as long as it’s the same weight it should not present a problem. My opinion only. Some oils are better than others but I would bet that it would be...

Just how long have you had it? Ours smelled for the first 2-3 weeks most noticeable when parked in an enclosed space. In my case it was just the various coatings being burned off as the car went through the heat and cool cycles. I suspect yours is the same.

Go into your applications menu and scroll down to vehicle status monitor. Then go to maintenance. Go into scheduled. Then go into time. Adjust time to the number of months you desire. Don’t change distance. This should clear the nanny screen and you will still have the reminder for distance. In...

The speedometer and odometer are user controlled by the push of a button. At least that’s the case for the GT/ Sig instrumentation. Really find it hard to believe Mazda would ship two versions to the NA market. But then what do I know?

Good deal!

On our 2019 I know from a late night encounter with a coyote that if the flow from the intercooler is disrupted the engine will not run. It will start and them immediately shut down. Had I known this at the time a roll of duct tape would have saved me a wrecker call. Still required a couple of...

If she wants the bench don’t settle. Salesman is probably just trying to sell what is in stock.

I absolutely agree on the seat adjustment. Mazda took a step backwards in that regard compared to the first generation. As you adjust it one way it moves it from a previously set position. It appears to be all tied together, not in a good way for my personal preferences.

2.5T. Dump 5 qt jug in crankcase and pre fill oil filter from spare qt. Puts it at top line and good to go. Did this on 3.7 as well when I had it. Get about 3 changes from the spare qt.

My #1 complaint about the drivers seat. 2010 seat was fine. 2019 is too flat for my taste. After a year I’m getting accustomed to it but I sure wish there was a clean simple way to crank up the front lip. It seems that when you adjust the seat rearward the front can be raised somewhat but this...

Can only speak of oil changes. Very easy as long as you pull up on a couple of 2x’s. The extra 5 inches is priceless.

Only speaking for my 2019GT. They illuminate red if not buckled, then green when buckled, then go out after 30 seconds or so. All three rows.

Press twice to unlock all doors, fob or door button.

This may be the sound I heard on my 2010 the entire time I had it. Really hard to explain the sound with words only. Kinda like a quick bu bu bu bong sound that I discovered happened almost every time I passed the 40 mph speed give or take. The dealership was never able to replicate or so they...

I’ve used both canned air and my compressor. Just go easy with the compressor air. A quick couple of shots should do the trick and dislodge whatever crud is causing the problem. I was never able to get my shop vac to work and evidently there are too many bends to properly snake it.

If the vac didn’t work shoot a shot of compressed air into the drain. This the one in front that you will need to fold back the heat shield to access. This was a common problem in my 2010 for a while and then as quickly as it appeared it went away. If there’s enough water to rattle the fan you...
