Wife met me at work and we drove together to the Brewers game (just got home, glad to see they fucked it AFTER we left) and as soon as I got on the highway I heard it.
Droning noise from the rear end. The rear end the dealer we bought it from said was fine. The rear end MY dealer said was starting to get noisy. I had the fluid changed and had an updated breather put in it, and JUST DROVE IT LAST WEEK and it was quiet. Well, not anymore.
Time to pull some strings with my Mazda rep and see if he'll help out with the $3000 cost of the damn thing. Car only has 109k on it, and is a 2008.

How do you like the CX-9?
My mom is interested in one, since it's the biggest thing you can buy short of a Traverse.

Love it. Especially the look of the new ones. Dare I say the most bulletproof thing Mazda has made since it came out in 2007, rivaled only by the Miata.
Buying ours used with no prior history, who knows why the diff is going. We've only replaced one other at my dealer since the car came out. Transfer cases are an issue on some of them as well, but at least it's a cheap and easy repair and they extended the warranty on them.

Goodwiil time! Our rep gives everything away. We did a trans on a 01 S60 goodwill not to long ago.

Really? I'm not too keen on the new ones. The new Mazda face looks like a squirrel, in my eyes.
I had her test drive one before buying the Traverse and I thought it was nice. Had all the nav and that neat card key and fake key in the ignition.
