I have a Motorola V3. I took it to the dealer and they confirmed the problem by having one tech call another in the vehicle using their cell phones (not mine).
 
They said they need to call Mazda to troubleshoot and determine how to handle. Thanks for the responses.

sirius addition by dan0909

just an FYI that the dealer explained to me that my new CX-9 is sirius ready. The cost to hook up sirius is $700 (ouch) and that includes a switch box so that the aux input is preserved. It sounds like they had done them the way several earlier posts described (loss of the aux input) and decided this was better. That's a lot of money for SAT radio, but I've become quite used to it and in a new car, I can't see cutting the corner and adding a dash mounted unit. ---now if there were only an easy fix for MP3s with the bose system.

For those that installed the dice link kit, do I need the switch box in order to have the dicelink and the aux port to work?

iPhone not working with aux input by mcardld

Just got a new GT w/ Nav, w/ Bose and w/o Sat. I'm trying to use the aux jack to play music with my iPhone. When the cable is plugged in, the system recognizes it because the display changes to the generic "AUX" screen. However, I don't get any sound. iPhone works fine through its own speakers when it's not plugged in. I am using a Belkin aux plug cable that is designed for use with the iPhone. Any ideas? Thx.

You need to dial up the volume by 2X to hear it. Also, our your iPhone volume to max. This seems like bad integration to me. I still think Bluetooth is a better solution than aux jack. A2DP profile is needed. The new CX9's BT support A2DP profile (w/ GT model, I think)
 
Be careful when you switch it back to other sources (CD or FM), it may become too loud.

I just bought a 2008 CX-9 GT from a non-Mazda dealer. It has moonroof, 6 CD changer, some type of upgraded Bose system, no MP3 logo, no nav, DVD players in the headrests, a cable in the glove box which must plug into a phone or iPod?, no satellite antenna on the rear of the vehicle, an antenna on the uppoer windshield which looks like the XM antenna on my Subaru, a Bluetooth phone button on the steering wheel... which I think is all of the relevant info. Nearest Mazda dealer is 2 hours away.
 
The questions are: do I have satellite radio? If I hit the SAT button, it does nothing.
 
 Is the antenna on the windshield for the Bluetooth?
 
What is the cable in the glove box?

I have a new 2008 Mazda cx9 GT. The bluetooth set=up went OK. I would like to use the IPod portion of the phone through the AUX jack but also want to have sirius radio installed to play throught he Bose Radio system. What do I need to do? What needs to be installed?

They are mutually exclusive. I believe if you add the Sirius, you lose the AUX port functionality. There is a switchbox that get's added by the dealer but I think you still lose the AUX port for your Ipod.

When I try to put in a new number it keeps thinking that when I say 4 that it's * it's driving me insane. Any suggestions? Thank you

Some suggestions
- turn off A/C
- park the vehicle
- speak in medium speed (not too slow, not too fast)
 
I had no problem entering numbers. It takes some practices. But once you get one in, you know the right speed of speaking. A/C blowing can interfere the microphone reception.
