Just got my Meteor Grey
but what's bothering me is the tyre sound which is quite loud in highway. Any soundproofing I can do?
My friend recommend me do wheel arch soundproof..
Any ideas??

PM Me too. Thanks!

HS or GL? If HS the 18" rims are going to sound louder than smaller rims but it all depends on the quality of the road surface.

I don't think wheel arch soundproofing will help much unless you also insulate the boot, floor and door panels as well. This means ripping off all the seats and door panels to install the soundproofing. More chance of rattles and squeaks later.

After spending a wad of money on it the sound may reduce by 30% to 40%. I would just leave it.

My windscreen was just hit by a big stone just now while driving.. Luckily it did not break. But it left a few dots of stone chip signs on the windscreen.. Any suggestions or solutions for the stone chip signs left over instead of changing a new windscreen? Thanks in advance..

Me too aluminium metallic HS. I booked at mid of july.

Can be repaired. Google for Dr Cermin.

ofcoz u can do sound deadening on the wheel arch & floor

When u got it with plug and play, let us know... I think many ppl wan to install it.. lolz..

Do u buy a boot tray for your car?

Anybody knows where to buy those HS style round control knobs for GL?

Finally getting my car!!! so excited. Got my chasis number too.

Those of you need recommendation, please look for Jim from Bermaz PJ (same row as DirectD). Excellent customer service and super fast delivery. Less than a month from booking, I am already getting my car. Plus its Meteor Grey.

Those planning to get, go look for him.

Congrats getting your Meteor Gray soon! Is it a HS as well?

Guys, just a friendly reminder that Jim is Jim.tan not me..

Some of you been messaging me about prices and availability of the car.. You got the wrong Jim

Placed my booking for a white M3 HS in Bermaz PJ. Lucky draw got a skycoat thing. SA says it's like a coating for the car. Anyone know what that is?

Guys, pls take note that I'm from Penang Island, so the tint shop that I spoke so highly of is in Geroge Town.
It is a proper Raytech outlet, so you can google for "Raytech + Penang" n you'll get the shop's facebook page that has all the info and contact nos, and addy. (my car is on the 30th June entry :-)
Google will even give you the directions. The cost for M3 is about RM2K, ymmv.
Or you can visit the Raytech Malaysia website and checkout the list of other outlets in malaysia (under 'news').

Cheers..

Haha~~ Opps maybe when they pm'ed you, you can pm me haha

Thinking to join Mazda family soon.
Current best offer just free tint (forget which brand) worth RM800.
Anyone recommend best offer in JB. Thanks in advance.

Anyone got recommendation for spoiler installation? meteor grey

Nice aluminium M3 you have there! It should be quite a good tint to cost RM2k. Do you rmb the TSER% for your tint. And is it a security tint?

After driving M3 for 1 month,

- Tyre noise is there bcoz of the 18" rims, but the steering control is firm..
- Kruk-kruk sound happens on&off especially on the left side, but it's not all uneven road. I have been going thru bumpy and hilly roads in Cameron, but it got no sound. I have been going thru speed bump, it has no sounds. It actually din bother me much.
- The automatic transmission is smooth and the car is powerful.
- This car can do cornering well.
- Unfortunately, it has no auto brake lock and auto mirror fold.

P/S:
- Complained to SC wifi network cannot be connected. They update my version, then it works.
- But when i try to check for the weather, window pop out showed that 'ur lisense is expired'. What did it mean? Do I need to register to somethings before hand?
- How to join Mazda 3 group in FB? I have been requested for some times.
