    It is in the slot behind the head unit. It took me a while too, to figure it out without RTM on the first night I brought her home. Finally got the info from reading the "Getting Started Quickly" cheat sheet card.

    2011 CX-9 Grand Touring will get new wheel style

    Yeah, that's why I specifically remember that the "V" is smaller than the Acura wheel above, because for a second after looking at the 2011 picture in the coupon, I fantasized if I could swap it sometime in the future. Then immediately I thought that it'll be the same as my 10 spoke wheel, i.e...

    2011 CX-9 Grand Touring will get new wheel style

    No, it's nothing like the CX-7 wheel No, it's nothing like the CX-7 wheel. The coupon is at home now, let me see if I can find similar wheel: Not quite like this, but the general idea: The split is wider and the 'V' between the bigger spokes is smaller.

    How to remove the front cupholder

    PM sent, ceric Hi ceric, I sent the PM, hope I did it right, I had never done this :) Also, I noticed when searching yesterday, some member has the front cup holder without the divider in between. Is this for older than 2010 model? Either way, I am sure the underlining clips should be...

    How to remove the front cupholder

    My wife spilled some soda on the front cup holder of my 2010 GT AWD. Now, it won't close. I am planning to take it off and clean it up, but too scared to do so without any manual/tips. Any advice? I searched, and found the .pdf for the radio removal, Satellite radio, IPOD integration...

    2011 CX-9 Grand Touring will get new wheel style

    I just received my monthly bill tonight, and as usual, it includes the owner loyalty coupon. This month coupon shows the 2011 CX-9 GT. It has a new wheel style compared to 2010 and prior. It's five split spoke = 10 spokes in five star style, almost like what Acura had for their A-SPEC wheel...

    Cross country trip completed

    Thanks for all the replies and especially for the pictures. I am sure the button will be there when I check it tonight. I should have RTM (Read the F******g Manual), I guess.

    Cross country trip completed

    I am not aware of this feature. Admittedly, I haven't read the manual in full. Are you sure it's not the dimmer switch? Our car is similar, mine was bought 2 months ago also. I haven't activated the Sirius yet. We've been busy, me especially, so, even though I have the manual in pdf open on my...

    Mazda CX9 -2010 - Battery dead issue

    There is a recall for early 2010 models for the front seats heater that's defective and draining the battery or possible fire. Mine was built in Feb 2010, and when I asked the Customer Care, she said that mine doesn't need any TSB/recall. Oopss, didn't read that you got the recall done. Maybe...

    What did you get as a welcome package from Mazda (Coffee Mug)?

    Mazda need to step up to the plate. I followed the link in their e-mail with my access code just now, it bounced. Then, I followed registering manually per Davicho's link above, and when it gets to the finish line, this page gave me a message that the page no longer exist, and seems like my data...

    Fresh from installing roof rails. Tips inside

    Ceric, See you around in the Bay Area. Thanks for replying in my other thread too. Your username ring a bell. I probably saw you when I hang out a lot in Edmunds.com forums years ago. At the time, I probably lurk in first generation Infiniti M45, and other Honda (mostly Odyssey)/Acura (mostly...

    What did you get as a welcome package from Mazda (Coffee Mug)?

    Thanks for all the responses so far. All I got was a phone call from someone with a Virginia area code. I noticed that they always call around 7 PM PST, and do not leave any message. On the third day, I got curious and picked up the call. They only asked one question, and I gave "Excellent/10"...

    What did you get as a welcome package from Mazda (Coffee Mug)?

    For those of you who recently bought your 2010 Mazda CX-9, in the U.S., specifically in SF Bay Area, what did you get from Mazda USA as your welcome package? Somehow, they got my address mixed up, and on their record (before I straighten it up), I live in another city far far away. I got a...

    Fresh from installing roof rails. Tips inside

    Forgot to mention that my rails is solid, no movements. The vertical middle screw that you install from the inside (so that you don't see an exposed screw from the side of the vehicle = i.e. the one used to attach the rail to the middle anchor point) help reduce the flex. For now, the rails is...

    I just finished installing the OEM roof rails. It's past midnight here in the SF Bay Area. It just arrived tonight, and I just had to install it. It's no rocket science. Works as described here or in the instruction. It took me longer than others reported here (about 1 hour from unpack, read...

    New 2010 GT AWD owner, how does your rear washer look like

    Hi, New 2010 GT AWD owner here, just bought it last week. Wife has been driving it. Last night in the garage, I noticed that under the rear spoiler, there looks to be a missing rear washer nozzle. It's just a rectangular hole. I shone a flashlight on the hole, and didn't see any nozzle in...
