    2010 CX 9 GT HID model/manufacturer/temperature?

    Seems odd, but I can't find any info on the Xeon bulb replacement for my 2010 CX9 GT. These are OE bulbs. Anyone have any info on model/manufacturer/temperature? Thanks

    Better, Stronger, Faster

    http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/displayPage.action?pageParameter=insideMazdaVideo Opening is very funny and the not so subtle nods to one of my favorite TV shows of the 70's are just brilliant. IMO

    2012 MS3 with "Black MPS leather" option

    So I was looking at the Mazda US sight and noticed that the MS3 now appears to come with a coplete Leather interior as an option, rather than the red dot interior. Unfortunately the site is only listing inventory with this option, while the website apparently doesn't have info on the option...

    Powered Passenger seat rattle fixed!

    Anyone who has been annoyed by the rattle produced by an empty powered passenger seat (i.e. sGT/iGT trim), well my particular instance was fixed after they replaced the frame on which the seat sits. I guess the frame alone is ~$1300 (being power and everything) so your dealer maybe a bit...

    Can you replace a 2010 Mazda 6 sGT steering wheel with one from a 2010 CX-9?

    OK, bear with me for a second. So does anyone know if you could install the newer steering wheel design used in the 2010/2011 CX-9 or 2011 Mz6 in a 2010 Mz6? I know they have different airbags, but I have to think the interface is compatible since the 2007-2009 CX-9 used the same steering wheel...

    Replacing silver interior decorative trim on door handle

    So it's only been a few months and my son has managed to scuff the silver door trim that runs horizontally across the CX-9's door. It's actually scuffed down to the substrate in some areas. I called my parts guys and the trim is about $45 to replace. It looks to me that Mazda may have thought...

    CX-9 auto lock programming works on Mazda6

    Guys not sure if this works on all flavors of the new Mz6 but follow this link to the CX 9 section for more details. I tried it in my 2010 Mz6 sGT and it worked...

    Shifter trim creak

    Guys sorry if this is a repost but I could have sworn that I saw a post that described and offered a solution to a creak that eminated from the CX-9's shifter trim/center console plastic trim. It's a very subtle sound that's driving me nuts in the CX-9's otehrwise very quiet interior. I believe...

    Proud owner of 2010 CX-9 GT

    So given the great financing and incentives my wife and I decided to trade in our 2006 5 for a 2010 CX-9 GT Dolphin with black interior. It was a Dealer Demo that we got a great price on. I also was able to swap out the standard 20 inch Bridgestones for some Toyo Proxes ST2's as part of the...

    Pirelli Scorpion STR-A experience?

    Hi guys. I did a search and didn't get much, so I figured I'd ask. I know the majority of you love the Yoko Paradas but sadly they are backordered everywhere. So I'm looking at Pirelli's. Can anyone offer feedback on the Scorpions? It would be for all season use for the first year and then I'll...

    Does 2010 CX-9 GT have back-up camera with Nav?

    Hi guys. I'm just trying to confirm that the GT I'm in the process of buying has a review camera as part of the Nav system. The Mazda site no longer has specifications on the 2010 (2011 only as far as I can tell). Do those of you with 2010 CX-9's with Nav have a back-up camera? It's an expensive...

    Washed, Waxed, Vacuumed and dusted.

    Took advantage of the beautiful Easter weekend and cleaned up my 6. Washed with dishwashing liquid to make paint squeaky clean and then claybared (Zaino) the entire vehicle. Washed it with Zaino Z-7 Car wash, followed that up with Zaino ZC-S Clear seal as a base then Z5-Pro, waited a day and...

    Easy to clean

    So I washed my 6 by hand for the first time since I purchased it and have to say that it was easier to clean than my smaller MS3. The wheels, front grille area and rear trunk area are sophisticated enough to be interesting to look at but simple enough not to have to worry about getting into...

    Seeing many more 2009+ Mazda 6's lately

    I used to never see more than 1 every week, now I'm consistently seeing 2 or three a day. Must be there new financing campaign and the Toyota debacle.

    Different cover for ignition access

    Does anyone know if there is a part that would replace the plastic steering column assembly that sit's around the ignition on a 2009-2010 6? I have the smartkey and the only real issue I have with the interior is the cheap black cover that conceals the emergency ignition key access. Those who...

    Interesting read: The Mazda 6 Design process

    For those of you who are interested in how Mazda came up with the 2009 Mazda 6's Beautiful (IMO) design. It also speaks to some of the trade-offs and risks the design team had to deal with in respect to manufacturability and cost. Pretty cool. It gives me more respect for the effort Mazda puts...

    Made the switch

    Well after many months of consideration I finally took the plunge and traded my MS3 for an Mz6 GT V6 in Ebony Black w/tech. It's only been a couple of days but so far I'm pretty happy. Took a long drive last night "for the helluva it". It was the most relaxing, yet invigorating drive I've had in...
