Got my M3 2.0 (Aluminium Metallic) last weekend. Luv the car, however tyres a bit noisy. FC is quite high at the moment. Will update on the FC in a week or 2. Pls add me to the group tongue.gif

BTW plan to get my car tinted, any sifus have experience using 3M? Heard that they are giving promotion for the price of RM 1699 with free paint coating INM..Anyone can verify this?

2nd week cruising with M3 2.0, very nice handling especially doing cornering. Counter corners with less effort and with ease! Interior quality is excellent compares to other C segment cars. I feels that M2 and M3 is getting more and more on the road. Is that a good sign? I hope so smile.gif

Auto brake trigger lock means the door will lock when you apply the brakes.

How do I get to GS and is the quality any good?
How long does it take for them to install it?

I went to HQ to service my car, then the SA asked me whether want to install the auto brake trigger lock. I agreed. The SA brought me there to install. The workmanship so-so.

It took me 1 hour and 30 minutes to get it done. Well you can installl it in any other shops HOWEVER it will void your warranty. GS is Authorised MAZDA accessories shop.

HI anyone knows if adding an amp, sub woofer and component speakers will void the warranty? Cause it requires a lot of dismantling and wire cutting...

and...anybody's 2 cents, huper optik or 3M crystalline? 

Oh please add me, 2.0 Sedan, Artic White!

It's in my wishlist to add amp and woofer on to the car, however just worried that it'll void the warranty sad.gif Alternatively you can try GS Mazda Authorised Accessorries Shop wink.gif

Hey guys,

I just installed my Brake Trigger Lock today.
Was just wondering, whether mine is normal..

1. The brake trigger only activates before my seat belt is buckled
2. If I unlock the door to let someone out, when I depress the brake it doesn't lock anymore..
3. If I depress my brake before I start my car, the lock doesn't activate either

Pls advise guys..
*
Yep, mine is also like that. In order to trigger the auto brake lock for the second time, you hav to open/close the door again.

Everytime i step foot into PJ Mazda SC (infront of federal highway), I will at least spend 3 to 4 hours there. No matter it is normal service or checking or whatsoever. They do things really slow there and under staff. Once i asked about the Mazda 3 auto leveling function whether working or not they say no such thing on the car. It clearly does and even stated in the specs. The desk officer had no idea what i was talking about. So i went out to the showroom to ask one of the Sales adviser, he had no clue on what's the auto leveling function as well, he went to ask his colleague and came out arrogantly saying the auto leveling function only works when there's heavy load on the car. when the car is lowered due to weights, the lights will level up. I gave him the "are you kiddin me" look. Before i could say anything, he ignored me and went to greet his friend. So I went to the service station at the back and told one of their staff there whether they know about the auto leveling and he too had no idea what it was and some say the Mazda 3 had no such thing.

After the service been done that took at least 4 hours, they finally got a clue on how to check the auto leveling. they did some wiring stuff and start to jack up the car from the front wheels to show me the movement of the light.

Conclusion.. Bermaz still got tonnes and tonnes of experiences to learn from Toyota and Honda in terms of after sales service and general knowledge.

Lots of my friends gave up buying Mazda is because of the bad reputation in after sales.

If not mistaken there's an auto leveling indicator near yr speedometer. If it's faulty it will light up.
