Initially was considering Altis (Highest spec) and Jetta (not so much due to DSG).

Other cars like Camry, Teana, Accord not on my list as they appear a bit 'uncle' (no offence to anyone).

So narrowed down to either Altis or Mazda3 (or Ford Ranger if I do go for a more practical route).

Only saw the Maz3 in the showroom but they didnt have a test unit so couldnt test drive. But when the SA started the car, it was harsh - but I gave the benefit of the doubt and assume it was due to it not starting for quite some time.

Was in ur scenario b4, plus a Cerato in mind. I ended up with Jetta's cancellation and straight for M3. Would be a complete package if Bermaz didnt remove some of the features from the local model. Thumbs down to em. At least, the car while driving.. I'd say damn fine. smile.gif

altis vs m3, indeed a close competition

there should be a C-segment comparison coming up soon in paultan

Reasonable price , may i know KL which shop. I quite often travel to KL for business trip, so that not an issue.

i try to buy 3M Sound Proof Rubber Seal , but out of stock. The cost of material and plus shipping cost, i rather than ask ppl do, just difference only few dollar.

Yeah. They say don't worry. They locked already right? Me too. I found out when I was there talking to another SA. Then this guy with another SA wanna sit inside my car. I stared at the SA, then he quickly say this car is sold.. That time, my reg. number haven't got yet. So, they put a mazda 3 plate on it. I told the SA I'm not happy. If I'm not there, sure got children jumpin in my car already. nod.gif

Tribos coating makes your ride look shiny and it protects your paint from getting dull faster than without coating.
It does what other coating brands do actually.

However, it does not protect your car from stone chips as well as bugs sticking at your bumper when you drive fast at night on the highway.
Other coating also doesn't offer any protection from these.

For maintenance, I wash my car on my own since washing outside could damage your coating layer if they use non pH-7 shampoo.
On the other hand, washing with water is more than enough for light dust / dirt which is fairly easy.
For slightly heavy dirt, use a natural pH car wash shampoo.
After each wash, wipe your car clean otherwise you may start to see watermarks.

Yes, it is overpriced and over rated I think.
Even for half the price.

Actually, I did Tribos coating to my Mazda3 meteor grey. tongue.gif

My opinion is it is quite troublesome to maintain it but after each wash you will always admire the shine.
The only easy part is cleaning my rims where the brake dust easily washed away by water. whistling.gif

I've been hunting for cars since middle of last year, and the M3/M6 is the one i've set my eyes on.

Quick questions to the owners here,

1) rain sensor issue aside, any other major issues I should look out for?

2) Depending on minor or major service, how much should I prepare and any other maintenance issues should I be aware of?

3) Prolly related to my 1st Q, but if I'm buying a second hand car is that really something I should consider or rather? I know buying a new one will save me the headache but if I can see a bargain 2nd hand, I think its worth the risk, no?

As a Tribos customer, I concurred with XiuKeong.
Partly due to how they treat their customer, I'm not happy how they explained to me about the care and the warranty.
I heard about how they intend to not honor their 3-year warranty but since I just had my car Tribos-ed for only 3 months, I haven't experience that yet.

There are other brands that offer yearly free re-coat.
Go for that, or just go for polish and paint sealant every 3-6 months.
The accumulated damage is about the same IMO.

I will try to claim warranty from Tribos this coming September and see how it goes. So far I can see most gen2 Mazda 3 owners didn't claim it but went with another brand instead.

My suggestion is that you to consider Toyota Altis or Camry.

You get less headache.. nod.gif

Seriously, if you very worried about the cost of maintenance, you should get Altis, Camry, Perdana, Inspira..

Because if you involve in accident, Mazda parts need to wait for 3-4 months, depending how damage your car is.

Parts are more expensive than Proton, Perodua because most of the parts are imported. And I tell you, "imported" doesn't mean lasting though..

People choose Mazda cars is because it "defy convention". tongue.gif

Well I've been using a Kia Forte and the maintenance does come up to slightly lower, so it's only logical to set expectations right. And i'm not going to kid myself by comparing to a 'Proton' or a 'Perodua' for that matter.

Nonetheless thank you for your input, guess I will have to keep a secondary car then sweat.gif

Just to get things right with the "Current Mazda"

Most Mazda parts are now easily available and won't even take more than 1 month to get it from Japan as there are more parts shipping in monthly compare to before.

As for maintenance, its totally free for 3 years or 60,000km. After the free maintenance, here's some rough estimate on service

Normal service = Engine Oil (Semi) + Oil Filter + Labor = RM250 - RM300 +/-

So given a chance, you would go for another brand with better service & FOC re-coatings bro?
*
Complete package should cost around 2.8k.
So 50% off should be around 1.4k.

Actually, if they treat their customers well and stay true to their product warranty claim, I don't care the premium paid.
And by right the coating itself should last the warranty period if it's a really good product.

To answer your question, yes. I would go for other brand.

And just to add on, they didn't provide me with the after care manual.
Plus you have to pay extra for the Tribos shampoo and detailing spray.. which also they didn't offer to me when I picked up my car.

i guess it's normal as they need to bring your car to puspakom and tint (if they do it for you)

pls pm any admin if you wish to join the skyactiv mazda 3 club brows.gif

Be light on your pedal, the car will reward you with low FC.
Push the car a bit and you'll smile with the drive. laugh.gif

I got mine with 50km+.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Update: MP3 playback using USB is working fine now (no longer hiccuping/skipping/freezing) after I did the followings:

1) Use another type of pendrive (this time using a Kingston, metal USB head).

2) Renaming some of the songs in the USB (sometimes when you download J-Pop/K-Pop songs, the title of the songs will be written in Japanese and Korean letters and sometimes they're a bunch of weird symbols like $%^#). So if one of your songs is not in English alphabets, try changing it.

3) Delete non-mp3 files in the USB.


Hope it stays this way.

It is true. There is a lagging on between switching gear.

This is because Skyactiv GB combines the best of CVT and DCT.

So, at low end, you feel like driving a CVT gearbox. At mid to high end, you feel like driving DCT (Although I never tried DCT before. sweat.gif )

However, the Driven episode didn't mention that the Altis they using comes with bodykit, which you need to topup RM2,500 (Or is it comes with?)

So, up to the viewers discretion. But one thing is again, why they keep saying handling for Mazda 3 is same as Altis.

This is the most confusing of all for because Mazda 3 or Focus or even Persona.. All will say handling is 4/5 ratings.

I must go test drive Altis corner at 100km/h. Is it really good handling.

Before this, I had Toyota Altis 1.8 Dual VVTI (the previous model) and the handling for that Altis is crap, cornering at 70 - 80 kmh feels like you gonna flip. Not sure about the new one but I think not much different.

I got to praise m3 for the awesome cornering, done a "not-so-sharp" corner at about 120 and still feels solid.

if just look at features and price then we all know the answer lar. why they never compare bmw 3 1.6 turbo vs peugoet turbo vs preve turbo? see who comes out winning... if anyone says preve turbo win, i wonder where bmw can put their face.....

bmw 3 1.6 turbo - 135 hp and 220 Nm
http://paultan.org/2013/07/03/f30-bmw-316i...alaysia-rm210k/

preve cfe turbo - 138 hp and 205 Nm
http://paultan.org/2012/04/16/proton-preve...rm60k-to-rm73k/

peugeot 306 turbo - 156 hp and 240Nm
http://paultan.org/2010/11/18/peugeot-308-...ssion-rm118888/

again if we just look at the price, who win?


QUOTE(guilt79 @ Aug 14 2014, 03:06 PM)
It is true. There is a lagging on between switching gear.

This is because Skyactiv GB combines the best of CVT and DCT.

So, at low end, you feel like driving a CVT gearbox. At mid to high end, you feel like driving DCT (Although I never tried DCT before.  sweat.gif )

However, the Driven episode didn't mention that the Altis they using comes with bodykit, which you need to topup RM2,500 (Or is it comes with?)

So, up to the viewers discretion. But one thing is again, why they keep saying handling for Mazda 3 is same as Altis.

This is the most confusing of all for because Mazda 3 or Focus or even Persona.. All will say handling is 4/5 ratings.

I must go test drive Altis corner at 100km/h. Is it really good handling.

all car do cornering at speed of 40km....so all also good handling lor.... tongue.gif how u define handling anyway.... speed during cornering? or steering vs tyre precision? just don't tell me is up to personal definition then ok.

Hey guys,

auto lock
auto side mirorrs folding
reverse camera (intergrate with infotainment screen)

I saw that Mazda Australia do provide these installation service but I doubt Mazda Malaysia has it.

Mazda3 Genuine Screen integrated Front and Revers…: http://youtu.be/Ep2Of6low6Y

Mazda Genuine Mobile Phone Holder: http://youtu.be/vQ4Sh4mP-V0

Question:
If I get those features installed by car accessories shop, will my car warranty gets voided?
Any suggestion where I can get those features installed?

anything involve cutting or modding wire will void warranty

Bloody hell I called to ask and they request 430 for autolock...

btw i found a shop offer 150 for installation of autofold function via plug and play, if its true,
will plug and play method affect the warranty?

I think its because of the price bro.

For the same Segment, Honda and Toyota are offering so much more with cheaper price. For the amount we pay, buyer can top up a little more the get a different segment.

Edit: this said, our m3 wins a thousand miles in terms of design!

Waxing has its advantage. It protect the paint from all elements and the same time will keep your car shine & glossy. However just like the paint it can also become dull over time. Depending of the type of wax waxing will have to be repeated every one month to a few months. Other then that your car will also require periodic polishing as the wax become thicker and fill with minor scratches like swirl mark.
On the other hand, glass coating will require far less maintenance and washing the car will be easier. The down side of coating is the cost. It can be expensive but it will be worthwhile for those who want their car to remain shining & glossy but require the least effort. hmm.gif

We do have attractive package for coating & tint. Welcome to contact me & click picture below for more info. icon_rolleyes.gif

Hi guys, did anyone exprience gps satellite failure over here? my GPS had not been working since the first day I received my car which is in June (no satelitte signal and the pointer remain in Bangkok). I have wasted a lot of time to send my car back to Glenmarie svc to check and they finally replaced my car's control unit with a brand new one imported from Japan last week and the whole process took more than 5 hours!

Unfortunately the GPS is still not working .... the satelittle signals remain as 0 for most of the times although the map is now positioning in Malaysia. any suggestions?

Encountered the same problem after tinted my car. Apparently it blocked all the satellite signals. Went back to the shop and after many hours of testing they resolved the problem by installing a separate receiver...

The original receiver still remains inside my car but the Navigation system connects to the new satellite receiver somewhere near inside my car hood.

Some type of tint will effect the satellite signal to certain degree. Use Nano-Ceramic type tint instead.

People familiar with the industry have seen much advancement in the field, but none as substantial as ceramic window tint. This is a very durable product that stands above its peers in terms of longevity. It also has the highest heat rejection levels compared to other materials. It has double the heat rejection of hybrid and dyed products. Because it uses no metal of any kind, there is no interference with technology found in modern vehicles.
It is also of a higher quality and strength than other materials, and has the ability to hold shattered glass together better than its competition.

Many of the high-end metallic films cannot compete with ceramic window tint when it comes to longevity and durability. It is much more resilient when it comes to fading, bubbling, cracking and the ever so common discoloring after years of use.

Please check with the tint shop you went to and seek an explanation if you really suspect it is the tint. If the explanation is logical do post it here so everyone can understand.

I drove my car for a week before i send to tint and navigation system was working fine.

They even tested the new receiver inside my car cabin but it doesn't work before install it outside my car cabin.
They said have never had this problem before and has spent hours to work and test my car.

Anyhow, I'm fine with the solution as long as my navigation system working and it doesn't void the warranty.
So far after 6 months installation, I'm happy with the heat rejection rclxms.gif

Greetings to all Mazda 3 owners,

I'm planning to get the Mazda3 Skyactiv by year end or early next week.

Can you advise what are the pros and cons to expect from this car.

The most usual issue I noticed from forums and feedback is the tire noise.

Does it help if the wheels lower to 17" rims?

Appreciate your advise. Thanks for your time.

Bro, if you are getting it, why not wait till next year to get the car manufacturing date to be 2015. At least your resale value won't be slashed when you are planning to sell it.

Changing to 17" rims will void ur warranty, confirm with bermaz, don't let ur sales agent mislead u
Loud noise from engine mostly, any low profile tyres will have similar noise, a good insulation will do if can't tahan

if CBU unit should still come with sunroof, unless CKD, which is unlikely to have sunroof

imo, given a choice, if price is lower, i rather not have the sunroof

Since m3 don't have the sport mode, was thinking of buying the throttle controller.. hmm.gif

Bro lucifal, can confirm I can get the throttle controller since no wiring cutting at only plug and play.

Just a quick question to New owner of mazda 3 here.
Does the car comes with reverse camera cause the spec didn't state there?

Anyone's car had developed annoying rattling sound already?
Mine is already experiencing tapping/ticking sound underneath the dash.
It is a big disappointment! Don't know if it is from internal or external.
Sounds like metal parts not tighten and tapping on each other during uneven roads. (Not the A pillar issue mentioned in the TSB)

Left car there for 2 weeks, SC cant find the source.
Will try Mazda Glenmarie SC soon. Hope can solve, else don't know who else can. shakehead.gif

YES! That's the sound..

Travelling at 2-3,000 rpm at 40-50km/h right?

Sound like engine mounting.

Yes about the same rpm and speed + uneven roads.
I can hear it clearly it is beneath the CD player area.

Still wondering is within the cabin or outside.

Bro I admire your optimism, how long since you notice? I can't enjoy my car properly now, the noise is noticeable and driving me nuts! At least I am not the only one, anyone else? Zzz

Don't be lazylah bro.

Go see for yourself. Remember this.. All cars got manufacturer defect. Even Audi, Merc, BMW..

So, if you looking for 100% no problem, get a baseline car. Less gadgets, less problem. nod.gif

no regrets buying, bad service in SC happens to all brands of car, depends on which area u've been to

if u really wan bigger rear seat spaces and more gadgets, go for altis, price is also slightly cheaper, the car is also slightly low, my mum complains hard to move in and out

Overall quite ok with mazda. But no experience in their after sales services and car after months of driving. Showroom car sure ok.

So was looking for opinion. I am with honda now. So far still good.

As I know if you're looking for good after sales service, toyota is the best..

My experience with Mazda is so-so only. If your honda car is within warranty period, make sure they check your car thoroughly. That's why I boycott honda.

Just placed a booking on Soul Red today ,

Kinda dissapointed with some ethical/professionalism issues of SA .

1. Discuss everything , ended up placed my order into dealership without my knowledge instead of Bermaz .
2. Found out , demand a change if not I will pull out and buy myself from dealership .
3. The loan agreement will be change soon , today meet up again , been told has resigned on Monday , but today say will do my sales + my dad sales as final before leave (whatever la) , I already feel not happy/uncomfortable , but still proceed as loan have been approved .
4. Condition is must deliver by latest next Friday (no excuse whatever) , if not I want to cancel the deal .

All these hassle , seriously.....kinda pissed me off .

I should have just buy from @lucifal from Sg Besi , recommended . Informative and patient guy to answer all my queries. Thumbs Up

Many sales people provide pure sales services & delivery. Most of their objectives are to provide a good buying experience to their customers (irrespective of brand).

We try to be different. We not only provide a good buying experience, but strive to provide also a good ownership experience as well. Hence why our dealership is a 3S with repair & claim facilities, so that during your ownership period of the car, you will only enjoy the drive & ownership ONLY and leave all the problems to us !!

Of course, this type of experience might not be the requirement of everyone though.

To all the folks out here... I am and have been a proud owner of a Mazda 3 for 2.5years already... now that my warranty period going to be over... so the itch has started to do some minor add-ons. Since i took the spec without the OEM GPS Navi system, i am considering to add one now... any recommendations on good locations with reasonably priced units for the 3... looking for a place with good service and workmanship. Btw, i am in the Klang area.

Hi bro, mind to share what's the bank interest rate now? And also loan amount and which bank? I am aiming for previous model too.. same as you, around 2010 M3.. Planning to get it before CNY.. Now saving bullets for DP.

Currently going thru all the previous post to check out the feedback for the previous model. Cheers~


Bro lucifal, do you have any pre-owned M3 (previous model) list where they have intention to let go their M3? smile.gif

Bro, that's way out of my budget la.. 2010 M3 now roughly in the range of 70-80k. Rather than paying 80k for a H.City or T.Vios, why not get a better car which i think it has more value and can zoom zoom? hahaha..

Wow. I think that is a good deal. Btw, 69k is loan amount? Or the car price?
I also in dilemma choosing CBU or CKD. Wanna get the aluminium metallic color.

CKD, newer car, but quality issue had been always the discussion of it.
CBU, great quality, but age age of car starting from somewhere 2009? And most of them available in the market has mileage clocked at more than 70k I believe.

So, here comes my question, what is the cost of major maintenance? Need to save $$$ for the maintenance part too. Anyone could enlighten me pls? Thanks~!

T&H are so boring these days, Not interested at all. It's like they know people will buy whatever they sell so let's make more money. That's the worst of all when instead of being rewarded for being loyal customer, you're getting mediocre stuffs.

Many sales people provide pure sales services & delivery. Most of their objectives are to provide a good buying experience to their customers (irrespective of brand).

We try to be different. We not only provide a good buying experience, but strive to provide also a good ownership experience as well. Hence why our dealership is a 3S with repair & claim facilities, so that during your ownership period of the car, you will only enjoy the drive & ownership ONLY and leave all the problems to us !!

Of course, this type of experience might not be the requirement of everyone though.

Should be absorber issue. Don't worry. You're not the only one. tongue.gif

I was thinking of adding sticker line for my car, like the Fiesta on lower of the door. Does it look good?

Also, this Thursday, I'm servicing my car and also change GB oil. If anything happen, will keep you guys updated.

no need to pay but need to wait quite long, bring back SC, they will re-grease it which does not solve the problem, this is a design fault, the lower armbush during new/cold weather, water sips new, therefore the grease is ineffective, thats how the ngek ngek sound comes

also, please join us at the following group in my siggy~

My car also approaching 10K soon.
I wonder does anyone request to swap tyre in Cross Pattern(front-left with back-right and front-right with back-left) from SC? According to my friend with this cross pattern swap, the tyre can last longer but the downside is you'll need to replace all of them in 1 go when they are bald..

Does this request incurred charges from SC?

Yes. The free service is just for the scheduled maintenance service in the service booklet.

booking ard rm500, can be refund, no harm trying~

so far so good, not to the point they claim, but for a 2l car, FC seems pretty good to mi, 8.5l/100km avg

I finally manage to record the annoying ticking sound underneath the dashboard using my phone.
Phone was placed infront of the CD feeder, sound apparently is coming from that area.

Video(sound only) uploaded to you tube:

Please advise if anyone have this same issue?

Guys,

I just came back from service centre. The SA told me no need to change the gearbox oil.

This is because he say the gearbox oil can last to 5 years or 100,000km.

Is it true? I'm thinking of changing the gearbox on 40,000km then..

Mazda 2 FTW!!!

That HUD is the most wanted feature for all Mazda 3ers here.

Anyway, I send my car for service at 8.30am, normal service and can collect at 5pm. Took 9 hours to finish.

Not sure what sound. Got 2..

One is like "tick tick" sound. I got that sound too and I though it was my door sill because last time, my Honda City have the same sound, after I installed the door sill..

Another sound is like "ngek ngek" sound. Don't know what is that. Is that the one you complaining?

Im also having the "tick tick" sound near driver's window before. Send to SC at federal highways for inspection and told me problem solved by applying some sort of grease/lubricant but the sound come back again next day.. totally wasted my time.

Then decided to try the SC at Sri Damansara for my 1K service and also asked them to check the problem...and guess what! They fixed that by replacing a loose parts in the door..

Now Zoom Zoom without Tick Tick... And SC at federal will be my last choice to go...

The album artwork from iPhone cannot display correctly when connect through USB cable. Anyone has the same issue? Btw, my GraceNote version is v31.

But album artwork display correct when play mp3 on USB.

Heard that latest V33 GraceNote will solve the issue? Has anyone successfully update to V33?

Yup..it is for baby car seat.. and also to make more logical sense to me. You don't want the front passenger airbag to be deployed (even there is a collision) when there is no passenger next to u..

by right the "no passenger airbag" should light up when there is no front passenger or passenger with < 30kg <-- (according to mazdausa manual: here). I don't see this sign illuminated when i am driving without any passenger.

baby sit should put at the back seat. More secure compare to front seat and wont disturb you from driving. Besides, i'm not sure about mazda, but honda got isofix at the back for baby sit.

That's right, till one day bad things happens and you forget to enable it with a passenger sitting over there, who to blame then?? MAZDA? for letting you choose when to turn on the airbag?

Errm.. like I mentioned, I am just wondering how to do it since the capability is there. Furthermore, the passenger airbag turn on/off is supposed to be automatic. You don't have to turn it on/off manually but i am not seeing it behaving like that. That is why posting the question here. No intention to offend anyone..

You don't have to turn it on/off manually but i am not seeing it behaving like that. That is why posting the question here. No intention to offend anyone..

i read that some cars front airbags are only activated when seat belts are worn; got buckle switch but dunno whether it applies here and/or to driver's airbag only

I also heard that airbag safe when you wear seat belt. This is because the pressure when airbag release is great that can kill someone . May be that is why activate when worn it. Not sure true or not

Air bags are not fully effective unless seatbelts are properly worn. The death rate was roughly about 15 times greater when the air bag activated while seatbelts were not worn. Always fasten your seatbelt for the best performance form your air bag.
If you don't wear your seatbelt properly, there is a danger of considerable injury from the air bag.

So..

Mazda to introduced the LED Adaptive Headlamp, similiar to Audi LED Matrix Headlamp.

Looks like everybody focusing on headlamp, it will be "light years ahead"..

But I'm excited and concern the same time with Automated Driving Tech. Yes. It helps us to drive better but at the question is.. Who's in control?

No, you did not offend anyone, just to let u know it's better to have the prevention n safety on standby. Baby seats is better to be at the back for the sake of their safety.


Just some advise from you guys, is there any obvious qualities difference btw CBU vs CKD from previous Mazda owners?

Is it a good time to get the Mazda 3 now as it's approaching year end where Mazda is clearing their on hand CBU stocks. While the CKD version coming in April 2015 with cheaper tag of around RM15k. Wait patiently for the CKD or get the CBU and paying the premium tag?

One thing that worries is me paying the premium tag, and in the end the CKD comes with the few essential features, Cruise Control, Auto Seats Adjustment, Auto Headlamps, Auto Wiper

depends on your individual need. do all these extra features really a need for you? or u can still survive without all these.
yes, no doubt with all these features, ur car would look more premium. but do u think is it possible a car already cheap 15k and still give u so much features? bermaz and berjaya earn wat? is not their style...
even yes, the quality of all this thing also a mystery...

for my personal view, definitely there is difference between cbu and ckd unit in terms of material quality and the qc...
if not y so many ppl would still go for cbu unit? too much money meh?

conclusion, is still up to you as u r the one who paying..our opinion is just for references only.

above just my 2 cents. brows.gif

not sure bout CKD and CBU between the new mazda 3, base on pass models, owners has complain there is big quality issue for the CKD as compare to the CBU

features for the CKD still unknown, probably will have features like auto seat control, reverse camera, leather seats since the new mazda 2 will have these feature, but features like sunroof, 18" rims, DRL might be remove

Solely depends on you bro.

Seriously, every year, new car will be better than current offering. No surprised that 2015 Mazda 3 will have HUD, Cruise Control, Auto Light & Wiper at the same price..

If you wait, probably will be forever. nod.gif See you need it now or later.

As for that guy who show off his Meteor Gray Mazda 3 in Desa Parkcity every weekend, driving slowly and hoping people see your car, sorry pal. That privilege is given to me. rclxm9.gif OMG.. I sound stupid. sweat.gif doh.gif

My previous car is national car.. So can't comments on CDK built quality. But this how i persuade myself to go for CBU.

" I can always install new features whenever i got budget. But to upgrade build quality? It is way too complicated."

Yea somehow right for the upgrade part. Auto Car seat can get from half cut shop, but cruise control.... hmm.... Very useful for long drive at highway.

I've placed my booking at 1U roadshow during the weekend, just considering whether to pull out. Many of my friends asks why I buy new car at year end. I said no choice la, Mazda Bermaz clearing their on hand CBU unit, I wonder will there be any left after at 2015. After clearing their on hand ~500 units M3 then will wait for April CKD units(Told by my sis friend's father was a highrank person in Mazda/Bermaz)

The Mazda sales man told me no choice for me coz all CBU manufactured 2014, even I wait and register at 2015, the car still dated 2014. Right? Or the Year Reg on the registration card does makes a difference when I'm going to sell it in future?

your car chasis will be 2014/2015. but then register car will be 2015. so almost the same. I also have the same doubt to get now or wait till 2015. But make no different as bank interest going to increase again at the end of this year, car price may go up (after GST) or may be down . Been in that situation when 10 years ago say car price will drop but till now also high (up to you to decide). I will just wait till this friday budget announcement to see if fuel price will cap based on car cc before book new car. Anyway discount gave by them is like compensate your loss of getting car during year end. It is almost equal the same. Another 10 year when you sell car and electric car is more valuable. Dont think can sell your car higher also.

Yes, certainly saman will be covered. 5 years JPJ warranty and 10 years product warranty. Unless for tint which was not JPJ compliance and was installed at customer request will not be covered. If you are uncertain do go back and check where you had your car tint done.

I pressed M3, it seems reluctant to go, and dont have the pullback feeling and as quick response as I had in Civic I tested. I wonder is this what the Harve in Driven show said in M3 which the car response is like, "you really want go this fast, is this the speed you want" that kind of feeling..

What to do?

This GB combines CVT and DCT in one...

So, at low end, it mimics the CVT. If you drive a CVT car, you feel this has very similar feeling.

For DCT, don't really feel much but the so called Direct Feel is there but not significant

Damm it! I dun even know I might got the chance to get 2k discount or leather seat installed as I got my car b4 this promotion start...

Should I give it a try complained to Bermaz office directly? But it is like so many months already.. they might not layan me anymore.

how to count as EEV vehicles?

I think the i- Eloop regenerative components enable it to be qualified. But I wonder when does the tax rebate or so for EEV vehicles kicks in. Or it's just rumours in the air...

Check with your SA and see how. As far as I know, there is no expiry on this. I know because I signed for leather seat, only claim 4 months later.  sweat.gif

My SA? I rather not to talk to her... Make me blood pressure going up.. vmad.gif
Never mind... I'll do my own upgrade to leather when time comes..


Does anyone here do the Optimum Paint Coating (Ceramic clear coat)? The person in-charge told me that after apply the coating the color will slightly turn to orange.. just slightly sweat.gif sweat.gif

I have a big concern as i like my Soul Red very much.

Has anyone here encounter the same issue after coating?
Not sure whether this happened to all types of coating or only to this ceramic clear coat..

Errr.. I-Eloop is only a Regenerative Braking System. It saves fuel by 5% only. I believed the measure is based on emission standard of the engine. EEV is between EURO 5 & EURO 6

Why not refer to SA? Don't let her get commission so easily.. Give her hard time.

For coating, I saw one M6 with coating and it looks like light red than soul red. whistling.gif

furthermore, both price difference so much..130K ++ VS 150K ++
just like orange vs mango...
orange has vitamin C while mango has vitamin A..
It's depends on what u need bro...
m3 sporty but not comfortable as m6 for passenger
while m6 is more like a comfort family sedan car..

it's just my personal opinion, no offence bro..

Air Filter change 20k km onlylah.. And if you got K&N Filter, they will give you the new filter. Good because they don't keep it and sell to others to earn. tongue.gif

But although Mazda comes with 3 years free service and labour, there are conspiracy in it.. shocking.gif

We all see cars nowadays offer free service and labour for 3-5 years, meaning these period, you don't have to pay a cent for service. Noticed that SA always ask you to pay something that is not covered? Because they too wanna survive.

Companies keep pushing their cars with offer and rebates you can refuse. But the number of service centre is not growing same rate as selling the cars. Meaning 1 SC used to accommodate 20 cars, now have to accommodate 40 cars and growing. To maintain these, SC need more technician but due to first 3-5 years unable to earn money because of package, they will either simply service your car or not service at all.

I used to think why my Honda City got this jerking problem and keep sending to Honda service centre, they can't resolve it. Best part, it only happen after the warranty expires. Now, I know that these SC deliberately service "poorly" for your car and hope it can damage in 3-5 years after warranty expires so they can earn through you changing parts.

Honda knew the SC can earn money, that is why they recommend that user to change their engine oil every 5,000 km no matter using mineral or high performance fully synthetic. shakehead.gif

no wor... i tried with last old car toyota and honda..its okie..... it think its depending on SC branch one. i service my old honda at cheras last time no issue..but my uncle service his honda at subang many issue one...
i think its all depends on the branch... if the branch is not good then hv to change.... Mazda some SC is operate by Bermaz itself, there are also not operate by Bermaz but official SC center. Like the one in sg besi SC is not owned by Bermaz, so they can have some flexibility in terms of service and offer.

no wor... i tried with last old car toyota and honda..its okie..... it think its depending on SC branch one. i service my old honda at cheras last time no issue..but my uncle service his honda at subang many issue one...
i think its all depends on the branch... if the branch is not good then hv to change.... Mazda some SC is operate by Bermaz itself, there are also not operate by Bermaz but official SC center.

Not sure of your Honda in Cheras. I service in PJ and USJ. Both keep saying they can't find the fault and ask me to change this and that.. doh.gif

But this theory seems plausible... hmm.gif

Hi, Just ask all M3 fans,
Have you all try to program the auto lock door features when shifting from P to D?
As I read the Manual it show can, but I am not sure in Malaysia specs do we have this?
