Hi All
I have a 2012 CX-9 GT FWD with almost 60k miles. It has been a wonderful car so far with no issues. Frankly I had no idea about the common problems related to transfer case, water pump etc.
I dont think I have replaced the transfer case fluid. Heck I had no idea until I started reading stories here. I havent actively looked for symptoms of issues with say transfer case. There is no burnt smell per se. The only issue I see now is increased wind noise and that is definitely because of the weather stripping getting old.
So I am wondering
1. Are these problems mainly for AWD or they apply to FWD also?
2. After how many miles/age on an average some of these issues start showing up?
3. Are there any common issues beyond these that I should watch out for?
4. Overall how long are you keeping your CX-9 from those model years?
I will now go back to reading more and getting more anxious.
