<div class="bbWrapper">Does anyone know if any of the first gen CX9's came without an inner/outer drain plug setup? <br />
<br />
Just bought my '09 in July and started getting some shudder in gears 4-6 between 1,500 - 2K RPM in late October.<br />
<br />
Just drained and getting to refill, but found I only had a single (T40) plug<br />
<br />
I can't quite get all the way under the car, but can see enough to tell the drain plug came right out of the main body<br />
<br />
Also confirmed the expected 17mm hex doesn't fit where I pulled the T40 plug out of, not sure if I'm being a dummy (this would not be unusual) and just missing something, or if I've got a different setup on my new to me ride</div>
2007~2015 CX-9 Transmission drain/fill, only a single drain plug (no inner/outer)?

<div class="bbWrapper">Is this an automatic or a manual?<br />
The manual should have two plugs, a drain and a fill. The automatic will have a drain plug on the pan, then you fill it through the dipstick tube.<br />
<br />
I've never seen a Mazda with a Torx drain plug though. Every plug I've ever seen has been a regular hex head (like a bolt) or an Allen.<br />

Post a pic of what you're looking at so we can make sure you're on the right thing. You do NOT want to back out the wrong thing!!!</div>
