Many thanks for coming back, I ended up filling throughout the dip stick and using it to set the trans level. Hopefully the trans dip stick is accurate. I did find what I think was the levelling plug, its in a very tight place and you'd need a abnormally small Hex to get it off. In summary...

Sorry for the basic question, i have my 2010 CX9 up on ramps doing a trans and engine fluid replace and I cant find the Trans Fluid Levelling adjustment Plug. Can you point me the right direction please? Is it ok to fill the trans through the trans dip stick? Thanks Ben

Hi, its an AWD, we do a little amount of towing 30mins to the local ramps. I've had torque convertor issues on an X5 and front diff on an XC90 so watch transmissions behaviours abit obsessively. Its smooth as silk currently. Previous owner had trans fluid changed around 30K if i remember the...

Thanks for the welcome, yes CX9 very popular in Sydney at least, up north they favour the Toyotas and Mit's which are work horses but abit less refined than the CX9. Just popped to the shops and pulled up at the red light, with an identical CX9 to my left and a white one two cars behind...

Interesting difference between regions, same chassis, hardware, we only get 3.7L engines over here, not sure what else is available globally. The CX9 suffers the boat well (less the earlier commented brakes), no rear end sagging when lowered onto the tow tongue. Most of the boats weight is...

Thanks for the feedback, I did my research before dropping $30K (cars expensive in AUS), we see CX9's towing 18 to 20FT boats all around Sydney. My boat is actually 5.5m or 18ft just measured it :) . Viking Bowrider With the 140hp Merc Outbound engine the weight should be 1100KG. The trailer...

We tow a braked trailer with a Bowrider boat 20 foot, CX9 Brakes need replacing with something better, need to feel the bite of confidence. Brakes are not good, possible weak point IMO, only after 4 days of ownership. I'll be installing a Trans Cooler and Fan to keep the fluid at temp. Cheers

4 days of ownership $600 OEM Towbar and Harness Installed at home (instructions said 50mins for the bar and 30mins for the Harness, took me abit longer :) on my own, 2.5hrs and abit of bloody loss, all in ) $17 Rear Blower Resistor replace Laughed out loud at the steelership parts department...

4 days into recently purchasing a Black 45,000KM's 2010 CX9 Luxury, for my wife, we're very happy with it. Previous relevant cars we've owned are BMW X5 E53 V8, XC90 T6 ,XC90 3.2 and for my sins a Range Rover Sport, all cars suffered from high maintenance/parts costs and what I'd consider to be...
