try to look on the i-stop indicator light below ur trip meter, if light up mean it's ready while N and brake, i just press brake pedal as usual (not harder) the i-stop will kick-in
i believe that indicator light is measure your battery level whether enough to supply all the electronic components during i-stop kick-in

It shows the reason meh? It's shows ready ready ready then I brake, push to N, then not ready. I was like??? Pretty sure I drove quite a distance to charge the capasitor thingy

hey, u din go back to premacy klang service centre???

Summore yours white color

thanks little-sama for the comprehensive info. looks like my nick is wrong at the first page

so far so good with the FC. anyone sent their car to puchong sc? any feedback? tqvm

I've read in the manual that there's this brake assist thing that helps you with how much brake pressure you have to use. I'm not sure if it is available for Malaysian variant. As it sounds like a i active sense to me which is not part of our variant.

I've never had this brake issue. The only time when I don't get istop to work is during hot weather (my aircon is at full blast and put very low temp.) or my car is on a slope. Even small slopes will not allow me to go into istop mode. Other than that, everytime I expect it to work, it works. I'm so used to it that I don't have to look at my dashboard anymore to know if istop will kick in or not.

add me pls for SDN Soul Red Metallic

SDN snowflake white pearl for me bro..
Btw any of u guyz adi installed the soundproof?
How was the feedback on tat?? Mind to share?

woah... FC bery high... Mileage how much liao?


I work in Shah Alam. So quite near Glenmarie.

Red Sedan here btw.

depends on what u expect and what you want to achieve.

Some of us already installed Stuffit rubber seal to make our car slightly more sound proofed against wind noise and slightly increase door solidness. If you want to further reduce rattling, reduce rain noise on the roof and so on, suggest you go see professional accessories shop.

They are using this as a test mull to try out the Euro2 diesel I believe. Japanese spec M2 has rear drum brakes. But, M2 Skyactiv-D engines will have to wait until Euro5 diesel implementation, 2016/2018? Or inb4 delayed again. Mazda might have Skyactiv+ technology by then, who knows?

Maybe you haven't done your first service? As quoted below FYI.

Waiting for mine now~

This was right b4 service yesterday morning. I reset my Trip A right after the last refuel.

Nice first page there, little-sama!

It might be because your aircon is switched to the lowest temperature setting? So i-Stop won't kick in because your cabin temperature is not achieved. As quoted below, a lot of reasons, steering wheel must be straight?

M2 don't have i-ELoop (the one using capacitors, CKD M3 also doesn't has it), only i-Stop, hence the electrical components of the car are sucking the juice away from the electronics. Don't worry, since the car is drawing the electricity from battery all the time. The engine alternator is there to recharge the battery when needed. i-Stop won't use battery to restart the engine, it uses fuel combustion to restart, don't know why it works in Skyactiv engines not on normal engines, ask the Mazda engineers who designed the Skyactiv engines. Hence the restart bit rougher than hybrid cars.

You live in which part of the desert in Malaysia?

Brake assist is available in Malaysia variant, as well in a lot of other cars like Vios and City. We don't have the i-Active Sense package such as Active City Braking, where it will help you brake automatically if it sense you are going to collide in front at speeds 4 to 30km/h.

For me It didn't need to. As long as the car stop, the i-Stop will kick in. For me so far at night no issues.


Yes this is why after 1 minute or 2 the engine will auto start back.


I wonder if anything can be done to fix that. That's quite a bummer in terms of comfort though not very urgently bad.

I think Mazda 3 only got. I remember they also have lane departure warning but only for full spec IINM.

yeah and i forgot to mention they got turbocharge too. anyone know when the D engine will come to Malaysia? base on Autobuzz review it will come.
and i read some say mazda 2 will not have a CKD version. where they got that info?

based on automania, skyactiv-D is expected to come in 2016.

Based on Bermaz history for Mazda 3, I think it's only a matter of time for CKD Mazda 2 with better spec. But rest assured it will be earliest end of 2016 or later.

Tentatively 2016, depends on when the Euro5 diesel will be implemented in Malaysia. If Euro5 delay, Skyactiv-D sure delay.

Mazda had invested a lot in Thailand for building M2 and got Thailand EEV incentive. Unless Mazda willing to build another line to cater for M2, M2 CKD is not going to happen.

M3 is different, there are no production outside Japan for right hand drive, hence, Malaysia gets it first due to Malaysia EEV incentives.
