    2021 CX-9 AC Drain location?

    As the title says, I have a 2021 cx-9 and the ac is sloshing around like a kiddie pool. At first, I thought the water on the passenger floor was a spilled drink, but after it persisted, I looked into and realized it must be a clogged AC drain. Looked it up and found some videos on where to...

    AC Fan Blower sometimes not working

    I have a 2016 CX-5 GT (2.5L engine with 6-speed auto trans). About a year ago, the AC fan blower started to make noise when I have it turned on half way. Took it to the dealer and they said there was nothing wrong. They just cleaned something and the noise went away for a while. A few months...

    2016~2023 2016+ CX-9 A/C Drain Location

    Does anyone know where the air conditioning condensate drain line is? I've noticed that when running the AC there is not water pooling on the ground. I've felt around the passenger side carpeting and had a look behind the glove box. I see no signs of water and don't know where it's going.

    2013 CX9 - Driver's side won't blow cold A/C

    When trying to get A/C to turn on, we get ice cold air from the passenger vents and rear vents but the driver's vents blows ambient temp air. It occurs whether we are in single zone or dual zone mode. It occurs whether in floor or vent mode. Heater works fine. I'm guessing it is an actuator on...

    AC recharge/conversion 1992 Protege

    All, I'm contemplating taking my ancient 141K Protege DX back to Tucson AZ. Problem: AC not cooling. I'll diagnose the problem to ensure not compressor, but has anyone had recent experience converting their 90's era Mazda from R12 to modern R134a? My vehicle has other issues so I don't want to...

    CX9-2012: Air Conditioning Problem (Driver Side not cooling)

    - Cooling is less at driver side but passenger side and rear side works perfect. - In the morning and in the evening (when outside temperature is less), driver side cooling is also better, but still less than passenger side. - In the afternoon, if the car is parked outside in the sun and outside...

    a/c not cold past 1

    I have been driving a friends protege for almost a year. I love it. But AC blows ice cold on speed 1, and the light comes on for the ac. However, turn it to 2 or higher and the coldness disappears and the light goes off completely. Turn it back down and it blows cold. The fan blows but its not...

    2009 CX-9 - Heater blowing cold air

    This AM, I found that my heater will only blow cold air, and it sounds like there is a fan kicking on that I have not heard before now. While driving home this afternoon, I had the same problem, but now my check engine light is on. Any ideas?

    2016 CX-9. Can the AC keep up with very hot weather like 100 degrees and sunny?

    Hi, I think the new CX-9 checks off all the boxes on my shopping list outside of AC issues that numerous reviewers have mentioned and a possibly over eager autonomous braking feature (I see somebody just posted on that yesterday so won't repeat the question here). Regarding the AC, I've seen...

    CAI Cold Air Intake

    I'm selling this CAI purchased from ebay a while ago. I replaced the original filter with a K&N RE-0930 and also added the prefilter, because I used to drive in very dusty conditions. There's a rip in one of the couplings which needs replacing. The other coupling and the elbow are still good...

    Hello everyone. First time on here so forgive me and advise me if I should post differently. I have a 2010 Mazda 3 GT. Went on a long road trip. In the middle of the road trip I noticed I was unable to change the driver's side air conditioning to be hot air. Instead it was freezing cold and...

    I need help!! I have a 2002 Miata - have not had any problems with it until now. It started running on the hot side a few weeks ago only when the A/c was on - gauge needle never got all the way to the H but it was halfway there from normal. Then the last few days even after the a/c is off it...

    Loose A/C vents

    Maybe it's because of the horrendous roads in my area, but the A/C vents don't seem to stay open in any orientation, particularly the middle two. Has anyone else had this issue?
