2012 CX 9
Hello guys!

I've been reading and have gotten a lot of information in this forum even before we bought our 2012 CX9 Touring AWD CPO almost a year ago.

I've installed so far dual headrest DVD and Curt Hitch on it.

What made us decide to get a cx9 is its versatility, seats 7 and is fun to drive.

Recently I received a letter from Mazda extending the warranty of the PTU to 7 years, 70,000 miles ( I think).
I've read in this forum that the PTU could have some leakage and a rotten egg smell results in such issue when it is leaking.
I've experienced that rotten egg smell from time to time and mentioned it at the dealership when I had my oil changed.
The reply was the usual high sulfur in gas ( which I also read in this forum).
I usually fill our cars ( the other is a CRV) from a Shell station and I don't have that issue with the CRV.

I will crawl underneath the car this weekend to check the PTU.

Overall, we are happy with the CX9.
 
Welcome and let us know what you find underneath. I'm saving the checkups during oil changes.
