Hello all! It has been awhile since I posted here and wow has the site changed a lot. I have a 2007 GT CX-9 and am looking to change my transmission fluid for the first time, believe it or not! I have been doing a lot of searching here and I believe all I need is a 10mm hex socket if I am...

I recently had the knob pop off on the 2nd row fan speed control. I popped it back on but the fan speed does not change no matter what I do. Anyone had a similar experience?

I have had the CEL come on and off a couple times. Using a reader I get a P0022 code. I am thinking this is the VVT SEL that advances timing i.e. the code results as retarded cam timing. Anyone know if this is the case and how hard is it to locate the VVT SEL and replace. Thanks in advance.

I had my heart set on getting a set of Yoko Spec-Xs, but I have read a lot of bad reviews regarding tread life; Many other good things to say about the tire though. That said I have been eyeing the Yokohama yk580 and the Michelin Latitude tour HPs. Discount tire has the Yokos and Tire rack...

Got my oil changed and a couple of days later the check engine light came on. Used an OBD code unit, because NAV shows no engine codes, and it gives me P0020. I know this is a generic code for a camshaft sensor, but The car exhibits no strange behavior. I cleared the code and it came back five...

I have seen a few threads on people talking about changing spark plugs. I am coming up on 70K and am thinking on changing plugs in the near future. The engine runs great and I am not experiencing any noticible loss, but I do like to keep up on maintenance. My question is has anyone actually...

Did a cursory search, but did not find what I was looking for. Maybe I am not using the correct search terms. My question is, does the NAV/Radio factory unit in the 2007 GT have the ability to tune in even number frequencies vice odd? I'm guessing no, but worth a try.

Thinking on doing a NAV change. I believe the map DVD reader in the back is sh*tting the bed. It will not read my European map disk, even after I made a fresh copy. I have been looking at Crutchfield and there are 3 recomended units, the budget pioneer, the user choice JVC, and staff choice...

I thought I would write a thread to explain all my electronic issues I have right now and see if anyone else is experiencing them. It all started when the blower motor comes on to max when turning off the vehicle. I have the replacement relays on their way, so I just let the blower motor issue...

Had a driver side speaker issue this weekend. The door speaker started to rattle when listening to music. I took the door apart to look at the speaker. It was not loose, so I took it out of the door to look at it. Problem 1: The door has no vapor barrier ('07), hence when the window goes...

For those of you that do have repair manuals for the 9 where did you get them? I have been looking at some of the digital download sites where you pay 10-15 USD, but I am a little hesitant. Is there a good online method to purchase one?

So I did a quick search to see if I could find this issue and I did not, but that does not mean it has not already been stated. The passenger side air is blowing super hot air. It does not matter on which mode or even if the A/C is running. Tried dual zone as well and it has no effect. The...

Two weeks ago I began having problems with my car starting. It occurred coincidently, not really a cause, with trying to get the door auto-lock switch method to work for my '07. I had to have my 9 jump started again yesterday, 2 times in one week, so I thought I would take a look at the...

Just thought I would post a response envoking thread. What are you paying per gallon in your area? Here for super, roughly 87 Octane, it is $6.69 a gallon or 1.383 a liter.

Just burned an audio CD yesterday and not all of the songs I burned played. Is this due, to the songs that did not play, having too high of a bit rate? I am thinking maybe I should have left them in MP3 format and just burned straight to disk. BTW I have a 2007 GT w/ NAV and BOSE stereo w/...

Anyone try any of these products for the 9? http://www.performancechiptuning.com/Mazda/CX-9/ I like the voltage stabilizer myself. Maybe it will eliminate the need for a ground loop isolator for aux input audio whine too.

I have been experiencing an annoyance the last couple of days. When I turn my car off and exit, the auto lock feature does not want to engage. I then just take the remote out and lock the doors. Upon returning to the car the black button on the doors and hatch will not work, but the remote...

Finally got my CX9 from import customs yesterday in Italy. The registration office had a hard time classifying the vehicle. They finally settled on SUV vs. MPV after some animated hand gesture arguments between office workers. Filled her up 3/4 of the way with 50 liters of senza piombo at the...

I finally terminated (early) the lease for my 2007 CX-9 GT and purchased the vehicle, but what a headache. Reason for early termination is that I will be leaving the country on military orders and wanted to take the vehicle with me. Funny thing is that the dealership was trying to charge me an...

Got my new Centric front rotors in yesterday. I replaced the rear rotors and pads months ago and now I just have to do the fronts. I am sure that this will get rid of the pulsating feeling while braking. Next all I have to do is schedule time to take it in to the dealership in Alexandria VA...
