Detailed Description

This Global Parts radiator, part number 2986C, is engineered for Mazda CX-9 cooling-system service where the radiator must manage engine heat and also route transmission fluid through the built-in cooler. The aluminum core supports heat dissipation, while the plastic tanks provide the common OE-style construction used in many late-model cooling assemblies. This part cross-references Spectra Premium CU2986 for the same application.

Compatible With 2010-2015 Mazda CX-9, N/A, w/ Tow Package; with 29-3/7" x 19-11/16" x 1-1/16" Core. Compatible With 2009 Mazda CX-9, N/A, w/o Tow Package; with 29-3/7" x 19-11/16" x 1-1/16" Core. Compatible With 2007 Mazda CX-9, N/A, w/o Tow Package; with 29-3/7" x 19-11/16" x 1-1/16" Core.

What It Helps Address

• Engine overheating caused by a failing radiator core
• Transmission temperature issues tied to a leaking or restricted cooler circuit
• Coolant loss from cracked tanks or aged radiator seams
• Reduced cooling performance in Mazda CX-9 vehicles with the listed core dimensions
• Heat transfer problems from corrosion or internal blockage

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the radiator dimensions, inlet and outlet sizes, and tow-package or non-tow-package application before installation. Transfer any required vehicle-specific components from the original cooling system as needed, and inspect hoses, clamps, and coolant condition at the same time. Because this radiator includes an internal transmission oil cooler, confirm line routing and connection integrity during installation.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts supplies replacement cooling components for service applications where proper heat control is critical to engine and transmission operation. Part number 2986C is built to match the listed Mazda CX-9 fitment and cooling-system configuration.
