    Used to always load up with XCS. Pero Mazda C5 SA (mukhang he knows a lot about CX9) suggested to use 91RON only, preferably Shell or Caltex. He said CX9 engine is optimised for 91RON fuel. Though I can feel more response and power with XCS(95RON). There were several cases daw of engine noise with CX5, and common pattern is they use Petron XCS.

    Been using Shell 91RON ever since.

    Suggest you try muna strict 91RON either Caltex or Shell and observe.

    They loaded Shell 91 RON after decarbonizing my engine. I'll use Shell for now and then have the engine checked again after a month.

    Good day mga sir! If U have a friend who have the budget to buy CX9, would you recommend him to go ahead or you will advice him to get 1.8M budget SUV (Sta Fe, Trailblazer, etc.) Is it really worth the money owning CX9?

    If fuel OPEX is not an issue, go ahead with CX9, the fastest 7-seater SUV for that budget. Expect 5-9 km/liter (heavy traffic city to highway) based on actual experience. Other than fuel consumption, this car is much better and more refined. Plus the 3-year free PMS offered by Mazda is a great deal. And being JAPAN CBU, quality control is quite good.

    If you want to save up on daily fuel, both Santa Fe and Trailblazer are good alternatives being diesel based.

    Hello everyone!

    Went to WTC today for the car exhibit. An agent offered me the kodo CX9 AWD for 2.099m. A very good price i think considering that their website lists the car at almost 2.4m. Read this whole thread and unlike the explorer, which I was also seriously considering if not for the exhaust smell issue (and price), it seems wala masyadong issues ang cx9.

    I can probably put up with the reported FC. Any BAD experience with the car/aftersales? Meron ba nagsisisi dito with the cx9 (09209280773)?

    Thanks!

    Its a great car but resale value suffers a lot. Awd from 2.099 with the bose sound system sounds very good.

    Thanks EQ!

    Kumambyo yung agent. That price, she said, is for the aero daw pala. The kodo awd she can only give 80k discount, 3 yrs LTO and the usual pms, tint, floor mats and covers.

    I wonder if anybody here knows somebody who has a better offer for the kodo awd.

    Hi Guys,
    I'm planning to buy a 2nd hand cx9. I find the SUV's design a classic. Even the 2008 model remains a head turner.
    May I know if there is anybody here experienced the transfer case or tranny issue? This I read as an early issue with the cx9.
    I want to buy a good second hand but I do not want to be burdened by a very expensive repair cost.
    Your inputs please.

    Thanks,
    Ambo2004

    Hi!

    Wala ba talagang blind spot monitor ang kodo cx9? This is what the agent said when I went down to mazda alabang for a test drive the other day. I find that feature particularly important, though not a deal breaker for me. Didn't observe any indications also sa side mirrors. Failed also to ask the agent if the top variant released here is the grand touring.

    Anyone?

    Hi guys,

    Just bought a 2011 cx9 a month ago and unfortunately i had a transfer case issue. I fist smell like a gas fumes or kind of a burning oil. Did some reserarch online and i saw a crack in my transfer case nabungi mga gears basag bering natuyuan ng fluid. According to Mazda alabang 104k daw for the transfer case. Insted i have it rebuild and i hope ok sya. Still at the machine shop.

    Does any one here had a transfer case issue?

    Wow looks like a big issue. Hope you don't spend too much money.

    I am looking to buy used CX9 kasi needs bigger car for the baby.
    MArami bang sira/sakit ang CX9 ? I like Mazda pero not sure about CX9 performance, gas consumtption,etc. Currently have Mazda 3 2009 which we love.

    Another happy owner here for a year now. No complaints so far. I particularly like the car's handling. Nimble like a small sedan and very precise.

    Any update on this?
    At this price point, it is competing against the Subaru Outback...

    Noticed that the resale value of 2012 models is quite low compared to similar class vehicless, i.e., Honda Pilot and Ford Explorer. Are there some issues with this model or was the acquisition price just cheaper?

    Expensive and not practical imho. Good vehicles but not for even above average income earning family.
