Depends on sc done is good and some is bad, if go to sc they didn't have a lot of people usually will get your car service within an hour for minor servicing

If you go for sc with good reputation then you should be safe

I never use the foldable seat, not even once  sweat.gif

Anyway just my 2 cents as a Owner (not Salesman)

The nyek nyek sound, yes is annoying sadly there isnt a fix solution as of now. Been 2 years + since the launch of CBU and this problem still occur. Good thing is, Mazda is doing something i have changed the Lower arm bush twice (once a year, when i send for service) and usually after i changed, its perfectly fine only after a certain period you will notice the same issue again.

Maybe mine is CBU, as i found out from owners, CKD tend to happen less likely after changing their lower arm bush..

Other that this issue, so far i don't encounter any problem with my Mazda 3. Oh beside my Resale Value  doh.gif

Anyway, Mazda is really a fun car to drive, if you're emo ranting.gif just volume up and drive around with your favourite song  rclxms.gif 

After awhile you will feel  rclxm9.gif

Guys. It seemed GVC cannot be retrofit to current Mazda

When can you buy GVC?
Mazda says G-Vectoring Control will first be available on the 2017 midsize Mazda 6 sedan and the compact Mazda 3. Mazda will outfit the entire line within “a couple years.” It’s not possible to retrofit current Mazdas. While it’s a software enhancement to the Mazda SkyActiv engine control module, there are also subtle tweaks to the suspension and steering. GVC will eventually be on all Mazdas, standard, and unlike the test cars, they’ll be always on (no off button).

An interesting possibility is what happens if other automakers want GVC to use on their cars. So far, Mazda hasn’t said if it would license GVC or a variant. There have been times in the past when one company had a technology everyone else wanted, such as Mitsubishi’s counter-rotating balancer shafts that reduced the vibration inherent in four-cylinder engines.

Because they want you to buy the facelift or new model.

Retrofitting also have increased risk of warranty issue.

But i also share your disappointment... sad.gif

Previously, yes.
Now? Uncertain about the RV of Skyactiv.
You might need to do more research and comparison before you find your ans.

Malaysian mindset, typical only H and T is the best. No one appreciate the safety equipment, the features provided by Mazda.

So, if anything with RV, dont bother about other brand, expect H, T and Perodua.

Finally I’ve read all of u discussion from 2015 until the last post 2016 talk about the arc for Mazda Vehicle, so I just wanna know until today who already owned the old Ckd M3 and the latest facelift M3? Did the new facelift still come with the noisy sounds?
