but it was recommended to use with 50 series tyres that still can absorb some holes .

get ready with at least 4k for good quality japanese light weight rims

if u worried about fuel consumption and performance , then go for 16 " .

just remember , we can't expect good performance from 1.6 liter .

why mazda limit only up to 180 for 1.6?

I cannot start my car after 5 days i leave it under porch. Since my car only 16 months old , I quite shocked when found that my car battery almost kong..

Checked the battery fluid level and it almost empty ...top up then jump start the car.


For all of M3 owner, please check ur battery fluid regularly . I just serviced my car couple weeks before!


From my fast experience , normal battery can last at least 24 months ,



Mazda 3 1.6 using NS40 and it quite small compare to the the housing that can fit in NS60

my previous car battery last for 2.5 yrs (normal one) ...SC always check /top up battery fluid every times i sent for service.

If the SC check up my battery level during last service , i think the result wont be like this.

battery only covered up to 12 months , may be that why they dont check it on my last visit to SC



great lesson for me blink.gif

Maybe the SC didnt check your battery water level when you serviced that time? Workmanship problem? hmm.gif

IMHO :Most probably they didn't check the battery fluid level , otherwise , how come it far below low level .

Most of the time I serviced my car at Jalan Ampang , so better save than sorry . doh.gif

Wuuuuuaaaaa......i have to cancel my dream, i just confirm with mazda service center, they said for 1.6 model just can change up to 16inch rim. If more than 16inch it will void my warranty. So bubbyyeeee rx8 rim.
*
been told before. only 1" additional rim size covered by suspension warranty.

but u can keep ur original 15" . in case anything happen in future .

I just installed the K&N Drop In Air Filter in my Mazda3 1.6. smile.gif

Been test drive last night and this morning, I'm feel pick up of the car is slightly smoother than before.

Also, Car feel slightly responsive after 4000rpm when I am trying over-taking other cars.

Overall, I'm think the K&N Drop In Filter did improve performance of my car.. cool2.gif

RM280. Bought from a Authorized KL K&N Shop through Internet. smile.gif

I installed the K&N filter by myself. It is easy. Just take out the stock air-filter and put in the K&N Drop In Filter.

But it took me a while to close the air-filter box because the K&N drop in filter is slightly thicker than stock air-filter. Really need some force to close the box.  rclxub.gif

I see.

I saw a group buy K&N Drop in Filter topic from Mazda Club.

The sellers sale RM270 for Mazda3 1.6.

Just made sure you receive correct K&N Air-Filter. The part-number of K&N Drop in filter for Mazda3 1.6 is: 33-2924 & MAzda3 2.0 is: 33-2293smile.gif

Hi guys, just want to check with M3 owners, is it normal that you cant adjust the side mirrors right and left using the side mirror switch on the driver's door? Can adjust up and down only? Please confirm. Thanks.

Thanks gahpadu, sent my 2.0 for the 1st 1k service, they fixed the problem already. Apparently the electrical wire connection is loose and that is why i cant adjust my side mirror left - right and sometimes cant unfold my side mirror. So be careful when send your cars for tinting especially when they took out the internal part of the door to install the tint.

Is it ok to send my car for 1st service after 1400 km? Should be no issues right? For 1st 1k service they only changed engine oil and oil filter?

I read from mazda club forum that you can wind up (lower the window) the car by pressing and holding the lock button on the remote, is this true? Tried but nothing happened. Is this feature for M3? Anyone tried before?
*
u can wind up the window by pressing unluck button / wind up ( lock button ) - press it for 3 seconds.

There's no issue highlight by SC even I serviced my car after 1k+km for every interval service.

U got the service schedule complete with pricing ?
