    2011 CX-9 Spark Plug Change

    I was just told that when my 2011 CX-9 hits 60,000, I need to have the spark plugs changed. Mazda wants to charge me $250 + tax to do the job. I priced the parts, 6 spark plugs and 3 plenum gaskets totaling $57. Is this job that labor intensive? I can't find instructions on youtube or...

    Power tailgate issue - 2008 Mazda CX-9 GT

    The power tailgate in my 2008 CX-9 does not work anymore. Whenever I press the driver side button to open/close the tailgate it beeps twice and nothing happens. The same behaviour if I press the close button in the tailgate door when opened. Closing it manually is fine and the lock latches...

    So we finally broke down (figuratively) and replaced our 14 year old Honda Accord and I convinced my wife to get a 7 passenger to deal with 4 kids. Along with My 1991 Miata I now own the smallest and largest passenger vehicles Mazda makes. The CX-9 is the nicest car I've ever owned! I've...

    Shudder with a clunk/thunk from the rear while in first or second gear

    I am looking for some information on my 2012 CX-9 which has 7,000 miles on it. To provide some context, it had the symptoms of the widespread PTU (power transfer unit) problem, with oil leaking on the garage floor at around 6,000 miles. The dealer replaced the PTU under warranty. Since then, a...

    We have a 2012 Mazda CX-9 Sport with the plain display, no navigation. We have gotten my husband's phone paired so that when someone calls him it picks it up using the Bluetooth hands-free.

    Seeking advice for purchasing tail lamp assembly replacement part

    Hey, everyone -- I've only owned my 2014 CX-9 Touring a couple months, but I managed to crack the passenger-side real tail light lens loading furniture through the tailgate. Obviously this didn't make me very happy. I would love to fix the assembly, but I don't think that's practical, and it's...

    Brake Light OUT!!!!!!

    All the brake light in my 2008 CX-9 are out. Every other light: head lights, high beams, turn signals, flashers, reverse, license plate light work. They all work. I checked the bulbs, highly unlikely that all went out at the same, but was desperate. I checked the fuses, both in the glove box...

    funky blower motor

    I have a 2007 Mazda CX-9 that has a front blower motor that sometimes works but it usually takes going over a pot hole to get it to start. A couple years back I had problems and took it in and the shop said there were leaves in the blower and water had built up and it was flooded. How that...

    Just got a 2014 CX-9 GT with Tech Package, sunroof (no RSES). This is our second CX-9, traded in our old 2008 to get it. Great SUV, as folks on this forum will know. I'm seriously thinking about upgrading the sound system this time round, it is pretty bad overall with very poor soundstage...

    If someone (me) really wanted to order the optional AUTO-DIMMING REARVIEW MIRROR WITH COMPASS AND HOMELINK mirror for their 2014 CX-9, but the car already comes with the version of the mirror minus the compass, why can't it be installed according to Mazda? Or to phrase it differently, the part...

    Navigation Update?

    Found a lot of useful info around the forums, just wondering if anyone knows if/when a new version of the navigation disks will be released for the 2010 CX-9. It looks like the current version has been around for a while and I'd prefer to wait if I have to pay $200 and the next release is just...

    Changed to LED Lights for Interior and Rear License

    Just finished changing all of the stock bulbs to LED. I got all the LED bulbs from ebay (different sellers). I think I ended up spending about $25 or so for the whole car. The map, dome, and tailgate light use the same bulb. The courtesy door and license plate use the same bulb. The vanity uses...
