#100 of 131 Overriding the speed grey-out... by ceric Jan 06, 2009 (4:11 pm)
Look at what this guy did to his Vette, http://www.southerncarparts.com/corvette-c6-nav-system-mod-ex-24.html   There is also a speed wire behind the CX9's Denso display. If we can install a switch like he did, this would make it the grey-out issue a history. First, we would need to find out which wire is the speed sensor input behind the unit. Installing the switch and locate it where you can easily reach should not be a problem.   P.S. coastaletech.com sells lockpick kits for Toyota/Lexus/GM/and soon Ford. However, none is available for Mazda CX9, though CX9 is using the same Denso system as Lexus and Toyota do.

Replying to: not_2_shabby (Dec 13, 2008 3:28 pm) I couldn't agree more... Voice recognition is terrible, but the lockout feature is the worst. If I have a passenger in the car, there is no reason for the lockout! This is so bad that it definitely reflects on Mazda. As long as there is no free update from Mazda sometime soon, I can and will not recommend the CX-9 to anyone. Replies to this message: vikefan7 (Mar 10, 2009 9:59 am)

Replying to: kikat (Mar 09, 2009 5:19 pm) So you're not going to recommend a great car to someone simply because the NAV locks out while you're driving? How about you just give your very important recommendation that the NAV is a pile of sh*t and if they can just pull over or enter their destination before they leave it would solve the problem. Or, you could just tell them not to get the NAV....

A reporter is looking to speak to consumers who purchased a Mazda CX-9 and decided to drive versus fly when vacationing. Please send your daytime phone number and the vehicle you own to ctalatiedmunds.com by Friday, April 10, 2009.

#105 of 131 sirius radio station storing by jake64 Apr 30, 2009 (6:21 pm)
Does this system have the capability of storing the station in memory by name??? I can only get it to store station by number - so frustrating! I can also only get it to load one CD and it supposed to load 6..... It wont read the name of a CD nor the song names....what am I missing here?   Replies to this message: howardru (Apr 30, 2009 6:39 pm) ceric (Apr 30, 2009 10:21 pm)

Replying to: jake64 (Apr 30, 2009 6:21 pm) Storing stations by name....No It only stores by number. I have the DVD/NAV system with the 6 CD changer. You need to press the LOAD/Eject button you'll be presented with the ICONs for all 6 CDs and the display screen will tilt out to show the cd loading location. Press the CD location you want to load and the system will tell you when to load the CD (or eject).   The sound system will only display MP3 label tags of CDs burnt accordingly. It will not display names of traditionally burnt music CDs. Replies to this message: ceric (Apr 30, 2009 10:21 pm)

Replying to: howardru (Apr 30, 2009 6:39 pm) >> It will not display names of traditionally burnt music CDs. I think it is the burner (software). Some high-end burner supports CD-text, most don't. Even most original CDs (especially older ones) don't contain CD-text. Get a good burner software and add the text (title, album, artist, etc.) yourself.
#108 of 131 2008 CX 9 Nav Map by okeyobiozo May 31, 2009 (5:05 am)
Does anyone know what maps are used in the 2008 CX 9 Nav System and how and where to get a renewal? Replies to this message: ceric (May 31, 2009 10:17 pm)
#109 of 131 Re: 2008 CX 9 Nav Map [okeyobiozo] by ceric May 31, 2009 (10:17 pm)
Replying to: okeyobiozo (May 31, 2009 5:05 am) An "E" version can be found here. http://www.mazdaparts.org/mazda-navigation-disk.html However, E may not be the newest. I have heard about the "F" version. Note that the version number for 2009 is different. 2009 has a different NAVI system. A DVD disk also carries some software updates. A DVD disk of 2007-2008 won't work on 2009 and vice versa.
