i checked with the technician during my service interval and i asked him is it normal for the loud noise to occur when folding/unfolding of side mirrors. according to him, its normal. and there is no way to fix it.

yes the electronic sound during rotating of the steering wheel is normal...that's how the mechanism sounds like...it's nothing to be afraid or worried about..
closing of side mirrors is also normal...mechanical + electronic stuff isn't always very silent..even other makes have the same thing happening..the most important thing is that it is working well... windscreen cover is advisable and it covers all the glasses...u're just paying 15% of the amount stated every year...it aint that bad nor very high... for mazda3..about RM300 will do..if need to topup then by all means..do it..RM300 covers RM2000 that is if the front windscreen cost around RM2000 |

windscreen cost changes from time to time..
from what BerjayaSompo/Alliance would quote..usually it's around RM2000 for Mazda3.. other car insurance company might not quote this price because to them, any amount will do.. if u're always travelling at high speeds...then it is advisable to get it lol... |

QUOTE(DataWraith @ Jan 26 2012, 11:37 AM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Hi, New M3 owner here  I've been driving the car for 2 weeks now and trying to hit the first 1K mark service so that I can send in the car for checking for a very bad knocking sound coming from the rear right hand side. It just terrible for such a new car to develop this noise on the collection day. I collected the car from Bermaz Glenmarie showroom where the salesman explained the features and took the the road for the nearest gas station for petrol. The funny thing is that, there was no knocking sound during that whole time when I was in KL. The knocking sound was so loud and only developed after I enter the highway heading back towards my home city later that day. The knocking from the rear is more apparent when I apply the brakes or when doing a left turn. At other times, its just knocking even at low speed (25-50kmph) on normal road. Knocking is not heard during higher cruising speed.So, two weeks have passed and I have done some googling...it seems this is a common problem for Mazda3's? Just wanna get some sharing and experience from Mazda 3 owners here bout this. Other forums have suggested it could be the rear sway bar linkage that has come loose. Some say that its d rear suspension bushing and some say its the suspension itself that is faulty. |

I saw somewhere on the net they selling the MPS hood for normal mazda 3. I'm not sure though if you're talking about putting the MPS hood on sedan as I know that MPS only got hatchback. I also saw local guy put the MPS rim on the sedan. Looks awesome lah  |
