Hi all! I came across this forum trying to research solutions for my Japanese 2007 MPV (also called Mazda 8.) After countless hours of trying to find a solution by myself, I thought Id try to crowdsource an answer. My MPV came with a factory BOSE amp and an 8 speaker system. For its time it was...

Is there and easy way to test the Coupling Component? I'm guessing its a 12VDC solenoid. If so, could you simply hook up 12V directly to the input and see if it locks the rear end to the driveshaft? If this turns out to be the case I was thinking of putting a switched 12V line to the coupling...

Hey All: We have a Mazda CX-7 2010 with 83,XXX miles on it. We purchased three years ago with 50K miles and brought it into the dealer today after hearing whining noise from engine while accelerating and at startup. They are saying the Turbo needs to be replaced and that the AC compressor is...

Hi Folks, Got a 2008 Mazda CX-7 GT that has recently started acting up. My CEL was always on as I had an O2 sensor that was out, but recently the car starting misfiring a lot and and when I floor the gas the RPM would never go beyond 3000 and drop dead back to 2000, lot of hesitation, so I took...

Hello Everyone, I purchased an used 2008 Mazda CX-7 Grand Touring edition. Personally I love everything about the car. I have great sound system (9 speaker Bose) in the car but there is no AUX/USB connection for my personal music. FM transmitter obviously gave me really bad sound quality. On...

I just bought a used 2008 Cx-7. Has 149k on the odometer but a new 0 mile engine was just put in it last year and has a 3yr warranty on the new engine. I'm hoping this was a smart buy on my part? Drives great and looks beautiful. I don't know much about mazda's. I bought it after the 08 Kia I...

It's been a very bad week and I'm hoping this community can give me some advice. I have a 2008 CX-7 AWD with the 2.3L turbo, about 115K miles on it. On 11/8/14, while driving down the highway, the engine began making a high pitched whine. Didn't sound like a belt, didn't sound like anything...

So I drive over to my parents house for our normal New Years Day celebration and everything is running fine, but when I come out I start to leave as normal. I put it in reverse and let it coast backwards, then put it in drive and it starts pulling its own weight as usual. But when i press the...

Just wondering if anyone else has attempted driving a cx-7 on soft sand? I took mine on some soft sand and switched off the DSG (traction control) and stuck under 30 kph (otherwise it automatically switches itself back on), however after I get some momentum it seems like the DSG cuts in as my...

I have a new (to me) 2010 CX-7 GT - when I have the headlights set on auto, during daylight hours I can barely see the Nav screen or anything on the dashboard! I have already turned the brightness up as far as it will go... but I have to turn off the light switch to be able to see the dash...

Due to a goof up on my part a while ago, I bought these wiper refills for my mom's 2007 Corolla but found out too late they're the wrong sizes. Long story: my mom's car now has the same wiper blades as the 2nd gen Mazda6, which are the same kind of design as what's on the CX-7 and 2009 Corolla...

Can someone please explain in detail how to locate the evaporator drain on a 2008 CX-7? After reading some other posts here I'm pretty sure mine is clogged. I've read posts describing where this is on other models, but I still cannot locate this on my CX-7. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

*Mods please move if posted into the wrong spot* We tried to fix a slow leak in our 07 CX-7 oil cooler and made it worse (can't drive it now). Can't find anyone in the North East US or really anywhere that has one in stock to overnight to us. All places seem to have about a week lead time...

I am looking to buy factory wheels from a 2007 or 2008 CX-7. I do not care if they come with tires. I won't be using factory tires anyways. They cannot be warped or have curb rash. I do not care if they've been painted another color either. I am willing to travel anywhere in the South FL...

I have an 07 CX-7 Touring that I'm having a window switch problem. The passenger side front window does not roll up/down with the main window switch on the drivers side but it does roll up from the switch on the passenger side. I just bought a new main switch from the dealer but that wasn't the...

Lately, my tailgate latch handle has become stuck in the compressed position. I have to push it back to be able to close the the tailgate. I blasted WD-40 under and around the latch and it worked for awhile but now it seems sticky again. Anyone experience this? I would like to get access to...
