i do not know why mazda use T20 dual channel.

offtopic, shorty i pm you in facebook regarding autolock thing but you nvr reply. dun want money kah?

probably the message drop in "other" inbox in fb. i pm kelvin koh

been driving my sister jazz. it does have space on the rear. the seat is comfortable. but handling is boring.

drive my dad city. straight away can feel the handling is not so good as m2. it does have space and armrest. my dad also acknowledge M2 got better quality build.

btw im a family guy with 1 child. driving a m2 sedan.


conclusion:
honda city/jazz for practical guy.
mazda 2 for spirited driver.

1. the navi not worth it. i mean it can be use. but why pay if you can use waze? each update need to pay some more.

2. i-stop can be off. it does not off the engine if you just brake normally. you need to give it a little bit force to stop it. just use it on traffic light. not jam situation.

3. need to call mazda emergency line. do not temp to jump start your car!

4. 185/60/16 is rare. but you can change to 205/55/16 for same radius rotation with bigger width. but the rim j a bit small for that size, still it can fit.

5. dunlop eco

already got ppl do it. a bit la. but still ok.
like i said. 5.5j is not ideal for 205, but still can fit.

which fb group you mention?
there is few group for mazda 2.

Mazda 2 owner club malaysia - this group the most open for all. but just many seller ad in here. not really serious discussion.
Mazda 2 lover malaysia - quite open, few seller and have a decent discussion and quite active.
Mazda 2 club malaysia - use to be open, got seller and bermaz staff too but got some problem. still got a few members there. you can try
Mazda 2 skyactiv club malaysia - specific to skyactiv model and owner only. have to admit the admins are slow on approval. no seller ad, no bermaz staff, no non owner here for privacy reason (eg: some topic cannot discuss openly). very serious discussion and active club.

if you not an owner can try the top 3 group. if you an owner recommended to join the mazda 2 skyactiv club.

there might be others m2 group that i dun know.

follow the guide at the side driver door. 250kpa front, 230kpa rear if drive alone.
250kpa both if drive full passengers and luggage.

wow very nice. but the navigation card not so worth it for me. btw what HID DLR?

wow banyak silau. btw it DRL not DLR haha

sure can change if you found dual channel T20 bulb.
if LED.. good luck with that. most LED will melt. you need an expert to mod the LED.

HID above, it my 1st time know about it. how long can it run? who knows..

sure kelentong one. dia nk duit ckp la mcm tu. come on it just a tint. plug n play what lol.
i myself take my car at Bermaz HQ yet they let me do outside tint without a fuss.


got meh somebody use HID? i know got owner use LED, but not normal LED. the LED already been modded.

in my exp, the MZD will dimmed when you switch on your light. small or headlight. when you off the light, MZD will be normal bright again.

sound proofing not kacau warranty lah

you can check your coolant level yourselves to see they refill or not

it off the engine while the car is idle for fuel saving. you need to press the brake with a little bit of pressure for it to trigger.
you will notice the aircond will slow down while it active unlike some other brand that completely shut it off.
it will autostart the engine after you release the brake or when the battery/capacitor cannot support the electricity need to run your car.
how long can it stop? depend on your electricity usage inside the car such as aircond level, blower level, light and so on.

other method is by put your gear to N. you can release the brake while enjoying the fuel saving of istop (be sure to pull handbrake lol).
when you press the brake again the engine will autostart since it know you want to change gear. just brilliant.

the requirement for it to trigger, car need to fully stop. steering need to be straight. and you need to run the car for a while for the battery/capacitor to charge.

my advise: just use on long wait traffic light. it the most benefit. use in jammed condition, u will burn more oil than save it.

did you do kick down acceleration aka zoom zoom mode or just flat to the floor?

this year diesel will come with soft turbo. the pick up sure will be good

only early batch come with red ring. batch with free bodykit all come with white ring.

your talk about pickup. may i know what car you drive currently?

my personal opinion.. it not actually fair to compare 1.8 with 1.5 as the segment already different. at least on paper la.

as ssyycc said, our skyactiv drive (transmission) is focus on fuel saving while also provide smooth acceleration and directness (quick shift).
When you press the pedal all the way down, you would feel increase of resistant prompting you to maintain fuel efficiency.
it does not mean it cannot go fast but it want your confirmation on going fast.

how to avoid this? well there is few method we can use.

1st, sport mode. not like it? shame on you
2nd, paddle shift. it not for decoration
3rd, Manual mode
4rd, kick down acceleration. the engine will provide you maximum power.

doing those will make you go fast but less fuel efficient.

i already test new city (my dad own 1) with my m2, the only way city can fight with our fuel eco is by push the eco button.
but how does it drive when the eco on? terrible. the score is good but still cannot beat our fuel eco (depend on your happy foot la)
