    2008 CX-9 Issues and Questions

    My trusty steed is getting old but still needs one more trans-continental journey to avoid the catching COVID in those flying petri-dishes ;) Two questions, and I apologise, if they have been posted elsewhere. 1. Our one remaining working key is playing up. Sometimes it disables the...

    Which Fuse/Fuse Box?

    Hi. Three warning lights appeared in quick succession: TCS, Park Brake & Anti-Skid. I think that they are all linked to a similar fuse/relay. The owners manual doesn't mention any of these in it's fuse map diagram. Any help gratefully received?

    Replacement Windshield for 2009 CX-9 GT

    Hi. We got a 20cm stone crack and the insurers are coughing up for a replacement windshield. They have found one that looks likes it fits but the label says "2010 Onwards". As far as I know they were no changes to the windshield between 2009 and 2010. Can anyone confirm this? Many thanks

    Cold Weather Strange Smells - Thoughts Please

    We went on holiday and left the CX-9 in the long term car park for 3 weeks. Here in Sweden we have had an exceptionally cold winter (-20 C). I was told not to apply the parking brake.

    CX-9 2.2 Litre Turbo Diesel

    Like the idea of a diesel but 2.2 litres for a vehicle weighing in at over 2 tonnes. I'm not sure that this will even work in Europe where we are diesel crazy. They should have licensed the Range Rover 3.6 V8 TDV8 Diesel when they were cousins under Ford. Would have been perfect for the CX-9...

    Wife Dinged Rear Door

    ...don't even ask! I need some touch up paint for my Sparkling Black 2008 Cx-9. Usual suspect won't send it overseas. They cite "Hazmat", though I'm not sure a few small cans of touch up paint constitute a risk as "airmail". Does anyone know the paint code for the Sparkling Black so that I can...

    Thread for Complete Nerds Only

    My thanks to Jan from the Netherlands who finally managed to solve the "Euro" Bluetooth problem. Jan worked out that the US spec Bluetooth was looking for 11 characters. In Europe our fixed lines tend to have 9 (XX-XXX-XXXX) and our mobiles tend to have 10 (XXX-XXX-XX-XX). Jan suggested to add...

    Mazda to Offer Dockable Entertainment System Gameboy Advance CX-9

    Is it me, or can anyone see the point of this. Im not even sure Nintendo make the GBA any longer after it was replaced with the DS and DS Lite. Moreover they talk about a DVD with a moonroof option. Is this a spoof press release or what? http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2008/02/19/078157.html

    Back Up Camera and Rearview Mirror Accessory

    Am interested in this accessory but have a question regarding installation kit. Most sellers sell as two parts (i) the mirror unit and (ii) presumably the camera and the "box of tricks". I like the mirror unit a lot but particularly want a camera installed in the license plate holder (many...
