Mazda CX-9

Your Mazda CX-9 relies on a well-maintained transmission to perform smoothly and efficiently. If you’ve noticed unusual shifting, strange noises, or power loss, it could be a sign your transmission needs attention.

At Automatic Transmissions R Us, we provide diagnostics, repairs, and rebuilds for all Mazda CX-9 transmissions. Our Perth-based specialists use high-quality parts and advanced testing to get your vehicle back on the road fast.

Common Mazda CX-9 Transmission Problems

Every vehicle develops wear over time, and the Mazda CX-9 is no exception. Common transmission issues include:

Slipping gears – When the transmission struggles to stay in gear or unexpectedly shifts out under load.
Rough or delayed shifting – Hesitation, harshness, or difficulty when changing gears.
Fluid leaks – Often caused by worn seals, gaskets, or damaged components that allow transmission fluid to escape.
Burning smell or overheating – Usually a sign of excessive heat or deteriorated transmission fluid.
Warning lights – Dashboard alerts triggered by the vehicle’s control system detecting a transmission or drivetrain fault.

If you notice any of these symptoms in your Mazda CX-9, book a transmission inspection before the issue worsens.

Signs Your Mazda CX-9 Transmission Needs Servicing

Knowing when to service your transmission helps avoid costly repairs. Schedule a service if you experience:

Jerky gear changes or delayed response – noticeable surging, hesitation, or uneven movement when accelerating or shifting.
Unusual noises – clunking, whining, or grinding sounds while driving or idling.
Dark or burnt transmission fluid – fluid that appears discoloured or smells burnt, indicating contamination or overheating.
Vibrations or shuddering – shaking or juddering felt through the vehicle at certain speeds or during gear changes.

We recommend servicing your Mazda CX-9 transmission every 12 months or 20,000 km to keep it performing at its best.

      The team at Automatic Transmissions R US were fantastic. Their service was excellent. Pam and the team made the process easy, especially as I was transporting my vehicle by courier. They were able to book my car in for as soon as I could get it delivered. The service team did great work inspecting and then completing the repairs. They kept in contact with any updates and were fast, reliable and reasonably priced.
Thank you Automatic Transmissions R US

    I booked the vehicle in for a noise I thought was coming from the gearbox. Graham inspected the vehicle and found it was not a gearbox issue. Graham pointed out other possible faults that could result in the problem i was experiencing. I felt reassured and can highly recommend this repairer who didn't charge me for the diagnosis. Thanks to Cameron and the team at Automatic Transmission R Us a job well done.

    Trailblazer/ Colorado TC shudder
Had to fight with Holden for many years for a repair for the TC shudder, offered a band aid fix from Holden that failed on two previous occasions.
The team at Transmissions R us were completely honest, as a mechanic in a previous life the explanation of the common problem made sense. (Phoenix Holden constantly denied this issue)
Had the  Transmission  repaired and drove like new, I literally drove the vehicle across Australia towing a boat. After 10 months noticed some slight leaking of ATF on the bell housing. The team repaired the leak that included removal of the Transmission without question.Highly recommend this business.

    Took my car in recently on short notice when I was informed of a auto trans issue from my normal mechanic. I was met with exceptional customer service and expertise which lead to a quick diagnosis to confirm my true issue which was a crappy ac compressor making the noise.

Will definitely be returning to these guys in the future for any auto trans work.
