Hello proud M3 owners

Just a quick check on the i-Stop, is it true that planets must be aligned in order for it to be activated for a long time?

E.g. I stopped at the traffic light, pressed firmly on the brakes and i-Stop activated, about 5-7 seconds later, i-Stop deactivated and engine turned back on (without me doing anything, foot still firmly on brakes). Same goes when I've shifted to neutral and applied the handbrake. Of course there are some other times it was activated for a long time.

I've read the manual and apparently there are tons of conditions to be met for the i-Stop to be activated, like wheels must be pointing straight ahead, on a less steep ground, temperature on the outside and inside must be similar (I suspect this could be the reason), etc.

...it's my new CKD high spec M3 btw

Thanks for the input guys!
I guess will try to up the aircond and see how it goes

Ok, I might have encountered something even weirder with the Mazda Connect.

This is what I did, TWICE, same results:
Take a pendrive>load in music>play in car as usual>wanted to load in more music via pc again>stuck halfway and said it is write-protected>tried all available solutions to unlock that with no success

Now i'm stuck with two write protected pendrives (different brands).
Am I using a different format (FAT32 as opposed to NTFS) which might have caused it to get corrupted?

I heard that the soul red paint is actually costlier than others, so it might be the reason why it's not offered for the CKD Mazda 3 and perhaps reserve it for the higher end models like the new Mazda 6 instead. But it's just my guess.
