Hi, new owner here - Mazda 3 2015 GL. Just wan to ask, have you guy feel the car is continuous minor vibration/shaking when the car is not moving(engine started)? And cornering or parking, I can feel the steering is quite heavy. M3 service advisor has changed the pressure to 32>30 coz I complaint car is shaking when I drove 100-140. What is recommended tyre pressure? 205/16 Tyre. TQ

QUOTE(rockets @ Jul 29 2015, 11:37 AM) I had that idle vibration when my car was new, it's gone now after 5000km. I think it's to do with the engine mounting being abit stiff while it's new. Once your car ages abit the vibration is no longer noticable, at least for me. As for your tyres, 30 psi is way too low. The recommended psi for 16" is 36. Of course your steering feels heavy because you're under inflated. The shaking at high speed is probably due to bad balancing and alignment. Mine wasn't perfect either, I brought mine to an alignment sifu and now the car is straight like a bullet and no shaking all the way to 200kph. Thanks bro, 32 is default setting given by Mazda. My car just done 1000 km 1st service. Can't imaging the balancing got problem. That day I sent my m3 to HQ, they told every good, no problem v alignment n balance, just my tyre pressure was too high (given by them also @@)...so change from 32>30... I make it 31 now, steering lighter but tyre running feel harder. For new car shaking problem, hopefully so...

QUOTE(KennyKB @ Jul 29 2015, 10:09 AM) This is definitely not normal. I can't even feel any vibration in my car when idling. Car is also very smooth when driven at 100-140 km/h. When cornering or parking the steering should be light. I'm driving a Mazda 3 GL myself. The tyre pressure should be 36 - 40 psi depending on your passenger load (see label on driver door edge) but I don't think tyre pressure is your problem. You definitely need to pursue this with the SC until solved. That's minor vibration coming from engine... Maybe u try to touch your dashboard or steering or rear seat, any minor vibration? 36.... HQ said 32 consider too high..I confused now @@ Any good polish or waxing intro? I stay at pj area, nearby ss2
