QUOTE(SpIcYjOe @ Jun 29 2014, 10:50 PM) Ah. So many accessories has been removed.  I really wished Mazda 3 has the front speed panel thingy as seen in their promotional video. for a 140k car, a lot of standard acc not available. Even the button to lock the door? :S Bermaz deliberately sell expensive. Because it is simply the best looking c segment car in the market today. Not many cars can become finalist for car of the year. That's why it can sell itself through looks. However, I suspect Bermaz wanna make money by removing some parts. So they can earn by selling accessories. If sell only car, can't make much as cars nowadays can run forever. This post has been edited by guilt79: Jun 29 2014, 11:18 PM

I did it for my Honda Accord and would love to do the same exact one for the Mazda 3. Honda did it for me hence I don't know where did they sent the car to fix it. If I do it at GS Accessories, it doesn't void any warranty right? Or I do it anywhere also no warranty will be voided as there is no hacking or wiring needed.

Yes, GS does offer for auto brake lock, if i remember correctly, it's 450...previously 380, they said change model...old model no more no warranty void if u install any accessories there even wiring modification...so called mazda accessories panel.. if u did at other shop, bermaz have the right to void ur warranty if anything happened...

QUOTE(guilt79 @ Jun 26 2014, 05:39 PM) Depends on the situationlah bro. The engine will auto turn on fan until it cools down. Actually, it is good for your engine if fan is off. Because you let engine cool down, before shut off. Like human. After exercise, straight go to sleep. If starts, you notice the M3 rev higher. This is because the engine is warming up. Once reach optimum level, it will back to below 1,000 rpm. Now, I wanna confirm one thing brothers.. Our M3 don't have Active Grilled Shutter right? Satria Neo also got the auto fan. I dont think so M3 has one nor AGS.

QUOTE(eau-rouge @ Jun 24 2014, 05:18 PM) go back 10 years ago..stone chips are rare.. most of the roads now are worn badly on the surface..this is where the small stones staring to peel off bang bang lah tail-gating is the reason why. Especially high speed.

Oh no, I'm not talking about Auto Brake Lock. I was mentioning about the Pedal Lock whereby you pull the lock everytime you leave the car and unlock it when you need to start the engine.

Haha. Not those. You know when we need to start our Mazda 3, we need to actually step on the break before the push to start is activated? This lock locks the break in the neutral position and prevents it from being activated. As show below.

lol my fren used to tell me, if a person really want to steal ur car, no matter how many lock you put, he sure got a way to break it.... else he will just wait for you and jump on you when u unlock the car..
maybe u can put GPS to ur car. is hilang already then can check and issue stop to lockdown the car. i think this way safer...
anyway i just back from cameron.... so far the best is 8.2l/100km... easy overtake, good gripping and great handling.. also i saw 2 new m3 there also.....

If yes, not recommended to do this at third party accessories shop. Anything happen to your car, warranty voided.

Honestly, as good as that smell is... I wouldn't want to keep it. That being said this is my reason why. The smell is from chemicals used during the process of making the seats and plastics of the car.
