    Road Noise?

    I've a rental Mazda 3, and am looking to purchase one- but I've noticed that there is A LOT of road noise. The 2012 Mazda 3 has 2100 miles on it, and I can't imagine that this is caused by poorly worn tires- but is this a common issue with Mazda 3/skyactiv cars? And is it Tire based or is...

    Replacing Torque Converter and transmission

    Long story short- I've been feeling a shaking/stuttering coming from my 2008 mazda CX-9 GT (AWD) at 30-50mph in 4th or 5th gear (only when keeping constant speed- accelerating it goes away). So I took it to the dealer (and I'm out of warranty and at nearly 110K miles), and they're telling me...

    Turning off the Beep?

    I just had my battery replaced, so most of my on-board settings are back to factory settings. There's the Beep (on/off) button via User Settings on the touch screen but that doesn't effect the Volume/Channel steering wheel buttons. The buttons beep on every change and I swear it didn't before...

    A/C Blasts when key is turned off...

    I fixed this a couple months back, but I went to one of the local Mazda dealers here in the LA area, ordered and got the relay switches. I think the hard part was opening the fuse box, which took about 2 minutes. The only other oddity was that the fuses that I purchased were a different color...

    RSES DVD Player un-mounting instructions? or replacement costs?

    Does anyone know how to un mount the DVD player? It doesn't display the picture if I open it all the way, but works fine 1/2 open. Seems like a connection issue, but there's no evident way of pulling it off the head liner. If Not, can anyone tell me if they've had theirs replaced? thanks!

    Car Alarm going off- randomly on it's own?

    In the past 3 weeks, my stock car alarm has gone off on it's own, without harassment. The only uniting aspect between these occurrences has been that it's been wet or had just rained. I'm in So.Cal, so this is an odd parallel to draw. Is this a known problem, or better yet, anyone know why...

    weather stripping on the front doors

    It seems that the weather stripping on both of my front doors is coming detached, it looks ok in place, but under close examination it's slipping out from under the retaining strip-- and is causing an air leak / road noise to become really audible. Has anyone else experienced this, and know how...

    Blue Tooth audio input?

    Has anyone here used a BlueTooth Receiver plugged into the Aux Jack in the CX9?

    Blue Tooth audio input?

    I just had the pleasure of renting a 2010 mazda 3, while having new breaks put on my 2008 CX9, only to find that the "3" has a bluetooth audio in function. This allowed me to pair my phone and play tunes through the Aux connection via my Iphone with no cables attached. Is this something new...

    Engine noise "ticking" at idle

    I've a 2008 AWD cx-9GT, bought it new and it did the same. Ticking at idle and typically when it's cold. I took it to 2 different dealers in the Los Angeles area, and both said that it was normal. Not comforting, but I'm almost at 60k with no problems, and the ticking is still there.
