anyone here install locktech lock at M3?

Ya.. anyone install extra lock for M3 ?

Try Locktech? It looks good, am considering one for my car too

I went to Locktech website. Doesn't seem to have Mazda version lar

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.

maybe something with ur's car side mirror mechanical part . It should be 4 ways turning .Go and check with SC

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?

try press ur unlock key button (not lock button) n hold it more than 3second..n see what happen..:-)

Don't do it right after u do tinting. Only do after a few days =p

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 ?

Service schedule with the pricing? Im not sure about that. Mine comes with 3 yrs free service. Where did you get the schedule with pricing? I sent my car to Ampang SC and right after the service only signed the service booklet, that's it.

the free services only valids for 3 times right? iinm

yup..

mazda 3 service menu..for 1.6 and 2.0 up to 100, 000 km

for those who don't have it , do pm me ur email add.

Gahpadu, tried lock and unlock button, nothing happened? Something wrong with the remote or not programmed? I will try ask my SA after this. You can do it with your remote right? hmmmm.... Tried look up the manual, didnt mention about the feature.

Added on January 23, 2011, 11:17 amAnyone tried to repair stone chips on the front bumper? Mine has lots of stone chips, including big one right at the bottom tip of the smiley face!! Anyone knows stone chips are repairable by polishing / waxing or send for repaint? Any recommended shops to do both stone chips repair and repaint?

u have to press and hold the unlock button to wind down the windows and vice versa.

Mine also has alot of stone chips...sakit hati...but afaik, the only way to "remove" it is to repaint the whole bumper again. The paint coating given my mazda is pretty thin i reckon.

effie_woo..

try to press unlock button long enough until all your window wind down. If still not working and it might be something wrong with your remote.

off course..stone chips is really make me pissed off especially when we really taking a good care of exterior part.

Best solution ..paint it

Checked with my SA, according to him, the latest FL did not have that function as the function caused some problems, to the window and the remote i guess. Thanks gahpadu for your guidance.

what do you mean by 100,000 km?

detail price/cost and parts for every 10k up to 100k km.

sorry

Hi all,
I have big doubts here to find out with you ppl regarding the fuel consumption of my M3.
My mileage can easily hit >500km until I did my 20k service in the HQ,
it never reach 500km anymore after the 20k service;
maximum mileage after the 20k service drop to approx. 450km> and I'm very sure for this because I keep observing it till now the undone 30k service.

So the 1st thing in my mind is about the engine lubrication oil.
Can it be due to the semi-synthetic oil was used instead of the supposedly fully synthetic oil?

Please to those whom have knowledge on this, kindly give your most valuable advices, I need to do the 30k service in this few days.

Cheers!
