If i'm not mistake, fully synthetic is a 'cleaner' which means it is a lower viscosity oil hence providing more performance and therefore you will only need to change every 10,000km vise versa.
I'm not the pro though. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Dear experts.
I heard there is some noise coming out from the engine or the lower arm, front part when i drove at low speed or going through uneven road at low speed.
Recently I speed (20-30kmh) through a bump. Can anyone of you experts tell me what it is?
If the car is still under warranty , will try charge anything?
I know this is a bit off the optic. Sorry
Thank you in advance.

How would this car compared to a POLO 1.2 TSI? (In term of power, handling and comfort)
Anyone have a rough idea?

Of course cannot compare continental B-segment to Japanese ones. Their parts travels here further than from Japan, and the drive feeling are different. Germany made LHD car while Malaysia & Japan are RHD. Have to compare with Citroën and Peugeot B-segment.

What's LHD and RHD means?

My experience of driving M2 for 1 month are as follow:
1) Gear change is a bit slow for me (both up shift and down shift) but down shift is smooth.
2) Throttle is a bit light as well, not as linear as I would expected but definitely linear than most of the sushi car out there.
3) Handlling is great and steering is light so easier to maneuver around town.
4) Interior is the best. Nothing to complain.
5) Space is a major drawback.
6) Engine is not as powerful as I imagine after reading most of the comment but it is sufficient.
Overall I would give a 7/10

Just my 2 cents. Cheers

I tried the sport mode and I drove max 160kmh and I don't feel that much of power in it. The wind and road noise is also quite loud at 120kmh and above. It is a good car, no doubt about it. Cheers.

I'm comparing it to Ford Fiesta and vw polo.
Just wondering, what's the time taken from 0-100kmh?

Nice comment and advise you gave up there. Thank you very much.

Regarding the foot size I dont fully agree as car like Passat also uses paddle bigger than Mazda paddle and I feel the acceleration is much more linear compared to mazda. Even polo and fiesta has better throttle control.

I did drag the car more than 3k rpm but I still don't feel that much of power in it but it is definitely better than city, vios and etc.
I find the gear will only change after it hits 2k or sometimes 2.5k rpm even being light footed on a flat road. I not quite sure it is my car problem or is it normal? Because the car that I drove previously shifted at 1.5k rpm on average.

PS: I'm still think M2 is a good car but just that I expected more after watching most of the review.

I don't think it is due to the capacitor or the battery. It is due to the temperature in your car. If it's get too hot inside then the car will auto start.
