sorry, its rather confusing, whats the difference between

2.0SDN HIGH SKYACTIV

and

2.0HB SKYACTIV

both price tag is the same, tq and sorry if the questions has been asked before

and is there any significant different of CBU and CKD version?

Just got my m3 GL today, very nice but felt instant regret when i saw the post on the comparison between HS and GL head/rear light 

Don't mind switching but i think would be very expensive

Still looking for bodykit (front skirt , side skirt, spoiler) /rim options though.

FEELIN hopeful

Hope someone can answer the newbie to forum questions

1) Is there a difference between CKD version and CBU, besides 45k difference price tag... mine CBU btw (the earlier batch)
2) and whats that SCBS thing you guys talking about, never experienced it before wor...
3) Are you cars tinted? mine with 3M film but still veli veli hot leh, and AC also not very powerful to feel cold air when blasting, comparing with myvi advance...
4) Which petrol you guys prefer?? Ron95 i dislike shell the most haha always doesnt add up for given range
5) Does your cars have auto locking? like press brake then car doors locked... or need aftermarket :/
6) Anybody know mazda 3 speakers brand? The mid speakers quite shiok haha
7) Is it true(heard from a friend) skyactiv technology allows engine to have higher than other commercial cars like civic combustion ratio, hence we should not follow the every 10k free service by mazda and just service every 5k ourselves... change oil only maa rather spend that than repair engine after 100k milage


So are all these(Q2,3,5) just my car problem or M3...

Just read up about difference, dont fully get it.. so the CKD, cheaper, has more features? like those fancy safety stuff (auto brakes, auto wiper, cruise control, rear car detection, adjustable headlights, auto off highbeam light, sensor at mirror, auto hazard lights?) thats alot... can i still get them
Mine has the same, probably just engine parts cooling down, i think its fine as long there isnt any parts exposed to water when driving... so hot already if kena KL flood die lorh..
I asked Mazda service before, they said because of ABS or suspension thingy, using different material from last time(probably want save cost), they added some rubber for mine but still got sound. According for them its nothing to worry about and its very normal, many complaints already

Hi guys , i have few question regarding our mazda 3

1) Can our mazda 3 play dvd on the screen? I saw my friends new cx5 able to play dvd

2) If i want to adjust the wheel camber , do i need to add on camber screw in order to adjust it?

3) Any 1 here has replace battery before? I saw online there is people selling RM 600 for original mazda GS battery. It wrote there if don't use original battery i-stop will never function. Is that true? Any one here using other brand battery ?

3. free replace for 1st time. istop would not work if u install aftermarket batteries

Correction, aftermarket batteries can be used, provided they are start stop capable batteries able to withstand fast charge and discharge cycles. The issue is when you fit in the battery, need a to "reset/reconditioning/reprogram" the ECU. To be safe, get Q85/T110 type batteries; or my personal favourite, the AGM type Odyssey battery (i don't mean honda odyssey here, there's actually a brand of lead battery called Odyssey).

See this link :
euroesi.mazda.co.jp/esicont/eu_eng/mazda3/20110724140058/html/id0117h5800900.html

Here's an aftermarket reference, costs RM650 :

This is the OEM unit for your reference (no price, just specification) :
http://www.yuasa.co.uk/batteries/automotiv...es/ybx7005.html

Odyssey battery may cost double, but they are known to last the lifetime of your car (10 years or more). Unlike normal maintenance free battery that dies if you discharge it beyond certain level, Odyssey batteries can be recharged back to normal state a few hundred cycles. You just need to invest in a lead acid battery charger with AGM battery charging function.

Speaking of car battery chargers, i think they are a good investment as even normal maintenance free batteries can last up to 4 years, provided you don't drain them dead. This is where car battery chargers come in to do a maintenance charge periodically. I own one and my old vios battery lasted more than 3 years till i sold it off.
Even my mum's new C class also have a bit of slight blurring on the main beam path. I do think this is an inherent property of the plastic.

Hello mazda 3 sky active owners,

Should i go back to Mazda? thx for your help!!

I am a new M3 GL owner for 1 week already
The problem now I facing when I just got my car
a) Rear brake light internal crack
b) Rattling sound at driver door side and back
c) Leather seat defect, you can see they looks like just want to finish work and din assemble the seat properly, still can see aperture in between the back support and bud support (car come with leather seat).
d) Fuel meter inaccurate after I off the I-stop (Fuel meter wont drop at all eventhough i had drove for 200km)

Anyone has these problems ?
How long would it take to replace my rear brake lamp ?

When I got the car was at night, cant really check it until the next day, eventhough if able to check on the spot, it will be very troublesome to return the car to sales agent.
Is not that u can just reject the car right, and asking for a new unit right ? (all the way send from KL to JB)
Usually all the minor minor thingy, need time to discover.

I recently sent my car(CBU variant red) for repaint, the mazda's so famed red was soul red right.... But my documentation stated it was true red, checked online and turns out they are 2 different colours... Any other CBU got the same thing? And i heard form a lot of people that the CKD red isnt as nice as the CBU, so whats the CKD's red colour code?
CBU is A4A True Red. Isn't it suppose to be Soul Red? i thought they renamed it or something only... anybody knows if it a lot nicer??
