Mazda's iStop still uses battery to fire the spark plug to ignite the fuel in the selected cylinder.
The difference is that it does not use the starter like other carmakers. Using the starter will suck more battery juice compare to just firing just one spark plug. This post has been edited by dares: Apr 9 2015, 09:06 PM |

MF batteries are wet batteries as well, you can top up water at the end of it's life cycle to prolong it's life slightly. The difference between MF and regular wet batteries is that the water inside a MF battery doesn't reduce as rapidly. When u buy a regular MF battery from the shop, they are usually wet ones not dry ones.
Dry batteries has no water inside. This post has been edited by dares: May 13 2015, 11:03 AM |

QUOTE(MasBoleh! @ May 27 2015, 11:26 PM) Most prolly next year shall have news. Then hopefully will be cheaper. If and only if the Mazda2 sales overwhelms the thai production lines. And even then, don't expect a massive price drop like Mazda3 CKD, as cars imported from thai are already subjected to lower taxes due to AFTA (Mazda3 CBU was from Japan, which is not part of AFTA).  The old Mazda2 was never CKD-ed here. This post has been edited by dares: May 28 2015, 02:52 AM |

Quick question for Mazda2 owners: Does the sport button (The one behind the gearknob) switches off the 6th gear?
Put another way, when in Sports mode, can the car still shift into 6th gear? |

QUOTE(little-sama @ Aug 14 2015, 11:05 AM) It Juz helps to stay at existing gear longer. U will feel it's a bit smoother n lighter. Hi thanks. Yep I know it holds rev longer, I was just wondering if it also switches off the 6th gear like an O/D off button.This post has been edited by dares: Aug 14 2015, 11:42 AM |

QUOTE(ssyycc @ Aug 14 2015, 04:32 PM) You can ask those speed over 180 on sport mode, which gear are they driving. Hi, no need to speed til 180kmh. Just cruise along at 100kmh in normal mode, then switch on sport mode.If the transmission downshifts to 5th gear, and does not upshift back to 6th even with very light throttle (or using the paddle shifter), that means the 6th gear has been locked out. Nobody has an answer? This post has been edited by dares: Aug 14 2015, 04:37 PM |

QUOTE(GNR @ Aug 19 2015, 12:10 AM) Let me try this tomorrow. Hi thanks.Edit: Oh wait, you mean with auto-transmission on. That's the thing, usually I have sports mode + manual transmission together. Sports mode + auto-transmission will just rev the car till 4000rpm which I think is overkill. Usually I would switch gear only after 2000rpm (switching on sports mode would be pointless if changing before 2000rpm), but before touching 4000, usually. So the 6th gear is not locked out in Sports mode? (either in D or manual mode) |

QUOTE(Someonesim @ Aug 19 2015, 10:27 AM) Serious ? They said that ? SA ma, all pandai kencing mia regardless of brand  Tell them go google other market's Mazda 2 spec la before come out with jokes or lie. From what I know Taiwan and Aussie top range Mazda 2 got 6 airbag. Honda SA also told me 6 airbags will kill you in accident  deswai it's important to do your own research before buying a car. These SAs are totally unreliable. |

QUOTE(little-sama @ Nov 20 2015, 09:59 PM) Funny. Why relate handling to bodyroll? Would like to understand more. Since godcar suspension is softer and M2 is stiffer, why godcar has better bodyroll control?I didn't say God car handling is better. I said it's bodyroll Controll is better than M2. Probably due to its softer Suspension. M2's suspension is stiff. It might not be related, but one of the chief complaints about the new MX5 was too much bodyroll. A Mazda characteristic?

QUOTE(little-sama @ Nov 20 2015, 10:41 PM) Difficult to explain. But thts what I experienced sitting in godcar twice as a passenger, driver corner freaking fast but I felt damn steady behind. Hmm I think I understand what you meant. Yes maybe a mazda thingy. Coz I tried mazda3(damn power) but same symptom as m2 It's hard to explain in a few sentences....it's mainly due the Mazda2 subjecting it's occupants to more G-force, because the suspension loads up faster during hard cornering. It will be uncomfortable for rear passengers for sure, but it also means the car puts grip down better. |

QUOTE(Someonesim @ Dec 4 2015, 09:48 AM) Thanks for the info. I'm actually just wanted to register my car as in 2016, so let's say future want to sell, I can said it's 2016 car although not 2016 model. When selling, the buyer/used car dealer/bank will only consider the MANUFACTURE YEAR, not the register year.What is the new changes for 2016 model ? Most likely I cant wait till march/april  This post has been edited by dares: Dec 4 2015, 10:13 AM |

QUOTE(_kilakila_ @ Sep 6 2021, 08:01 PM) I believe the hole near fog lamp is the sensor. I think you can try to look for a replacement online, be it original or oem. Just depends on your cost. Then give it to a car repair shop to install for you. The main issue for me is the sensor part, whether they stole only the cover or including the wiring inside. That you need to check.
