    CX-7 Leather seats conversion

    * UPDATE* Ended up buying the leather seats out of a Luxury Sport model, found that no wiring was present in my base model car for the heated seats or drivers seat electrics, so I got all the connectors with some wiring from the wreckers and made up my own looms (no thanks whatsoever to Mazda)...

    2010 CX-7 2.5L Factory Workshop Manual

    Apparently not...been spoilt for years with Ford workshop manuals showing absolutely all wiring diagrams, wire colours and even connector shapes, ah well.

    Floating / swaying movement when I hit small bump / or pot hole on highway?

    Struts are usually replaced in pairs, could also be worn suspension bushes...get it up on a lift and check front and rear suspension joints, tie rod ends, sway bar bushes etc. I've only had mine a few months, so can't be too specific yet, but I'm learning!

    2010 Mazda CX7 2.5 Auto Parking Brake Conversion.

    Ok, found a US workshop manual that has info on the foot operated parking brake removal/replacement, but nothing on the manual transmission console mounted variety?? Must've been a Friday publication (dunno) Looks like it's a trip to the wreckers to learn all about Mazda's.

    CX-7 Leather seats conversion

    Never mind...I've opened up the back of the drivers seat and repacked behind the springs with high density foam, creating a permanent lumbar support, and lifted the rear of the seat tracks with a 1/4" steel spacer and longer high tensile steel bolts either side for better seat angle...works very...

    CX-7 rear muffler swap

    Anyone know if a dual outlet rear muffler from a 2.3 turbo will bolt onto a single outlet 2.5 NA? Not after any sporty ricer note, just want to fill up the left side tailpipe blank panel. Inlet pipe flange and hanger brackets look to be similar (thought)

    2010 CX-7 2.5L Factory Workshop Manual

    I've found a pdf workshop manual, but doesn't seem to have any electrical schematics section...anybody out there know of one with wiring diagrams showing connectors and wire colours at all, or is there a technical section on here with that information?

    CX-7 Leather seats conversion

    I have a 2010 CX-7 Classic (Australian model) with cloth seats and no lumbar or tilt function (hand), and have the opportunity to purchase a leather interior (no memory drivers seat, but who cares)...anyone done a seat conversion in one of these, and what wiring, if any, does Mazda provide for...

    2010 Mazda CX7 2.5 Auto Parking Brake Conversion.

    Hi all from Australia...new to Mazda's, and was wondering if anyone has done a foot operated park brake conversion to the centre console position, as in the manual transmission models? From what I can see, just by looking at pics, I'd be needing a handbrake lever assembly, manual centre console...
