New owner 07 CX9

[vr4flip]

Just wanted to make a little intro and ask a few questions.

My wife and i just picked up an 07 CX9 Grand touring w/Nav it has roughly 65k on the odometer and we absolutely love it. Though we've only had it for a couple of days.

My questions are there are a couple interior parts missing. How hard is it to source these parts and where would be a good place to find them? Our CX9 didn't come with the Nav dvd, are they expensive or does anyone know of how i can download it? And the biggest concern i have is that i heard the early models have had issues with the transfer case. How would i know if the TC on ours is bad? Thanks to anyone who can help me out. I look forward to being a part of this forum.

oh yeah, i forgot. It came with a tow hitch but i don't know if it's stock or not. How do i find out if it came with a factory towing package?

check the front where the radiator is, if you see a small squarefoot sized rad infront of it, then you have the tow prep oil cooler. Also the hitch should say mazda if it's OEM.

Thanks for the info. I'll check on that today.

I didn't see anything that small in front of the radiator, but there is something in front of the radiator. Goes the whole width of the radiator and a lot thinner. I hope that's what it is.

Congrats and welcome!

Thanks. There are little things that i'm finding that are broken or need to be adjusted, but overall, it's great. Hopefully the dealer fixes the issues since we just bought it a couple of days ago. Do they have an update available for the navigation system?
