    Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

    I am going to install it myself aleki2424. Only thing that I am uncomfortable at this point is the firmware upgrade. Can you please elaborate on how you did the firmware upgrade?

    Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

    I have a 2018 CX 9 GT. Talked to my dealer in US today. They said, it is not coming anytime soon. How much did it cost? Can you please share the link where you ordered the retrofit kit?

    No Android Auto until 2019+

    Any one got the AA/Carplay in your CX 9? Recently, Mazda had announced AA/Carplay in 2019 CX9. Does anyone know, when it is coming to 2016+ CX9s

    2017 CX-9 Crossbar confirmation

    Hey you are confusing the part numbers. 0000-8L-N02B is not the right part. The correct part number for 2016+ CX9 is 0000-8L-N11. This cross bar is rated for 209 pounds weight capacity. You can get this from Amazon or Mazda Swag at around 150$ with shipping. Here is the user manual of this...

    Review: CX-9 vs. Subaru Ascent

    Still, I like the CX9 better, even though there are some trade-offs like cargo space for style. Ascent Touring seems to be good, but that is more expensive. This is boxy and reminds me of Pathfinder. I am happy with CX-9's AWD system and handles excellent in snow and rain.

    Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

    When you drive alone, Car play and Android Auto could be great. But, when you go with your family or worse with colleagues, it could get annoying to project your phone screen to the display. I even hate the bluetooth connectivity, when I am not going alone. Besides, there is a simple solution...

    CX-9 Oil Change

    Recently, I did first my oil change and tire rotation for my CX9, at the 5th month, 6000 miles. The dealer was recommending oil change and tire rotation every 4 months or 5000 miles. Oil changing every 4 months seems too frequent, when the manual says 12 months or 7,500 miles or when the low oil...

    CX-9 Smart City Braking system question

    My wife said, it triggered the smart brake once for her. Cars in the front were breaking suddenly. Before, she could even think about braking, the auto-brake took control and stopped our CX 9. Luckily no one was behind:)

    2016 CX-9 Real World MPG

    My 2018 CX-9 was giving very good gas mileage when the outside temperature was 40f. It gave 22 city and easily 26+ on highway. Last week the temperature dropped to twenties and road was little wet. Observed during my 3 hour long drive. It gave only 19 city and max 21.5 on highway. I was looking...

    2018 Stop & Go Cruise Demo

    I have the same color as yours. Love it. The adaptive cruise control is awesome. I am amazed by the CX9's very short breaking distance.

    2016+ CX 9 Infotainment System Improvements

    Even more annoying with radio. I can never turn off the radio. All I can do is mute. Mute is not off. Still the radio app runs in the background. Am I missing something? I am going to chat with Mazda customer support and ask how to stop music.

    2018 Mazda CX 9 Pricing

    Always make a deal on the out the door price, including all taxes and title fees. Paint protection programs are usually a scam and they might add a 1000$/ Just refuse. Here is what I did. I went to Mazda's website and built the car and found the MSRP. Then as CrazyBiker suggested, I deducted 15%...

    2016+ CX 9 Infotainment System Improvements

    I like the CX 9 infotainment system. Though, there are some annoyances that are just software fixes. Wish Mazda considers them in their upcoming software updates. There is no music stop button. I play a music from USB. I pause the music and stop the car. Then when turn-on the car, it...

    Moved From 2017 Signature to 2018 Signature In 4 Months

    No regrets on my decision for going with CX9 over CX5. CX5 is a good SUV by itself. I might buy a cloth seat CX 5, when I retire my second car. I feel CX 9 has little more premium ride on highway. Love the turbo charger. CX 5 MPG is just couple of MPG better. I think CX9 looks better than CX5...
