For 2.0L M3 windscreen,
Sum insured 2.5k can definitely include the tint film, can even go for 3M crystalline range film, I'm sure because I had did it. tongue.gif

It's rm1800 for the WS & rm700 for the tint film.

I believes your mirror was caused by the water mark remover(acid).
This always happen to scratched glass surface, when the acid sip into the fine scratches of the glass, this is what you got.

Sometime it can disappear after few rain/days but sometime it wouldn't, depend on your luck.
If you did it by detailing shop, they mustn't allow this to happen & I think you should go back to them for the responsibility, UNLESS they did mentioned to you before proceeding to the job.

Dear comrades, a little info. for you all.

I had just went for a trip with RON95,
cruising almost fully on the highway at the speed of 95-100km/h,

Total mileage achieved almost hit 800km. smile.gif

Is this fuel saving enough?tongue.gif

later u try ron97 okay  hmm.gif

Actually I'm using Rom97 all the time.
This time is because of accidentally lifted the wrong pump hence just go for it.

I did tested the Ron97 last year,
KL > Bidor > Prai = Total mileage 580km
The most fantastic thing is, more or less 200km are town drive, non-highway.
So it's something like 35% town drive; 65% highway.
Average cruising speed in highway is 110km/h - 130km/h, most of the time 110km/h.

Quite impressive har? brows.gif

i believe performance wise + fuel efficiency won't be very different..only thing i notice is something to do with different tires ^^
good to know u've achieved 800km+

but still there are many heavy foot-ers going wild zooming here and there due to the car ability to zoom zoom haha, i hope they won't complain about the consumption
more power = more consumption, everyone knows that
just that some people just won't learn...

true enough.
I'm one of the heavy footer too, you just can't imagine how much i suffer to test it out...... cry.gif

wa good mileage there bro @ 800km...i did 80% highway and 20% city the most i can go is only about 530km on a 2.0 cruising at 110 - 140km/h...but one thing i find is that if we do constant 90km/h our fuel consumption is only about 6.5l/100km...pretty good i would say for a 2.0
*
further info. base on my personal experience.

below 110km/h - fuel saving
above 110km/h - fuel starts burning more;
above 160km/h - best I could get was approx. 480 to 500km.

I am never bother to test FC .. ask me about m3 FC i am totally dont know .. just fuel up and floor it ..

why people so worry about FC if they wanna have fun?

you pay extra money for more gadgets and Horse power
so you need to pay extra money if you want extra speed

Yes you can say it as a worry but it can be a logging for personal reference too.

The mileage can mean a lot other than money, it can be something wrong to the engine, tires, gearbox or etc.
Most people shall understand, each car, they has their own character, so it's not a bad thing to know your car more.

Personally, I always red the total mileage I had made per tank before I pump, then reset it after finish re-fueling.
Lets say if the mileage suddenly gone too less per tank,
at least I have a clue that something shouldn't be right anymore to the vehicle hence I'll stop zoom zoom before sending it for inspection.

I'm not a pro, a little aim of mine: prevent earlier is always better than sorry later.

Agree with you

As what i concern how much i paid for full tank and how many place i go .. for sure your 800km are horrible and was a great number for me that can consider as lazy to check how many FC per 100km .. from what my GF told me cause she is the one drive it to work daily and i using her myvi.. she said  fuel tank enough for her 2 weeks route to work i think around 20km per day.. that is all i know cause when i get into my car i will try to zoom zoom it .. even my gf beside nagging i just giving excuse " i just test my car only,nothing much "

There are some people trying to tell me not to buy Mazda..
reason 1 = resale value ( i told them if i worry too much of the resale value i will stuck in the boring T cabin forever)
reason 2 = FC ( new engine new technology so it wont be bad )

You know most of the ipoh very " uncle " pattern one.. scared this and that end of the day still the same brand same cabin same feel.. overpriced too
*
Wow!What a nice BF/husband letting his lady to enjoy the car and himself taking the myvi, SALUTE! biggrin.gif
Your case is different, I'll do the same if I were you too.

Anyhow, Mazda has innovate so much from the time being, they are improving, I personally thought so,
starting from the look they convince you then to the performance.
What lacking behind now is the after sales behavior, if still going on like usual now, all the good things may draw back one day.

most uncle bought nissan for the 6speed/7speed/whatever speed and the big space

no offence but only nissan gtr, nissan silvia, nissan FAIRLADY (my dream car) attracts me...those normal cars are a no no for me lol...

anyway they are loaded =P
i don't want to argue with uncle uncle all..
they retire already and want to relax with less worries
probably don't want to zoom zoom here and there tongue.gif

Yea, T & H, just too bored to look at or seat in, it's just a car.
As you said unless they are turbos tongue.gif but I think the internal design can still be better.

Browsing on iPad so quite difficult to find the thread

My M3 2.0 reached almost 50K. Sadly front tyre thread is wearing off. Went for bal n alignment found out one of the front tyre pecah at the side... Tyre man advise I need to change new tyre.. Can confirm this?

Anyone go for stock tyre? How much?
My tyre man recommended me Toyo T1R which is slightly cheaper than stock model. Thread size n thickness is same 205/50/17
Has anyone tried this model? Is it good??
*
With the original profile, I saw good reviews regards the Conti CSC5 or Michelin PS3.
Other profile you can consider Goodyear Asy2.
All the above mentioned are top range tires, shouldn't be putting you down.

About the T1R, I do heard of it, it's good in the wet but not really in dry.
