Are you sure you want the hatchback? It's like paying the price for the HS but getting the GL specs for the hatchback.

It's one of those emotional factors. The HB is kinda in between GL and HS so the premium over getting HS is not so bad.

Is it OK to mix front and back tyres with ori spec and non-ori spec or you need to change all 4 tyres?

Can, just remember to change in pairs (meaning 2 tyres in front or 2 tyres at back). Failure to do so may result in instability in high speed drive.

A side note, just pumped in shell ron95 into my tank rather than my usual BHP choice (fuel tank really too low and need to drive quite some distance to the next available BHP station). Conclusion, avoid it, makes the car feel slightly sluggish when compared to ron95 BHP doh.gif

However, would like to try out the v-power racing someday.

Is there any petrol brand better than BHP? I mean, among my circles of friends, we all agree that BHP feels the best - and all of us driving diff kinds of cars.

No problem bro.

If you're used to 4mil then maybe you can try 6mil cause shouldn't be much differ since you're already used to 4mil film.

Can't really recall the price for V-KOOL Elite cause that was 5 or 6 years ago sweat.gif
*
Just checked price. Diamond 6 is around rm2.5k. Crystal 6 1.8k.

53% tser vs 59% tser on d6
90 irr vs 97 irr

So big price difference.

Diamond 6 no problem with Autogate remote and smart tag right?

Also does the color of the tint play a big part to match the color of your car? Mine is meteor grey

Just test drive m3 ckd high spec, very impressive acceleration even though I didn't floor it, maybe I already used to my vios 1.5 slow acceleration tongue.gif

The radar cruise doesn't seems to work or need certain speed for it to work? I cruise at 60km/h and closing in behind a lorry but the car doesn't slow down hmm.gif

Didn't get to test city brake and i-stop because the route doesn't have traffic light

Dear all M3 sifu,

Im currently insuring the front mirror for RM1k sum assured, but I believe the smart device attached to the front screen cost more than RM1k.

Was wondering what is the suggested sum assured for front mirror for M3 car?

Thanks!

Watching Movie without needing any wifi connection or thru smart phone. Just plug in USB tongue.gif

P.S: Yesterday first time drove under wet road conditions. First time hear that awful ngek ngek ngek sound. Very damn obvious, super beh song to hear it. Almost got a heart attack before I remembered it was a known issue. I thought it was because of my monstrous driving hahaha doh.gif

P.P.S: Went to Old Klang Road 3S centre. Nice place, but car wash never wash properly and no vacuum.

P.P.PS: Went to JDM Teknik in Cheras to install autofold. Few post back I mentioned whether it will void warranty, and JDM said it's just plug and play. Assumed means no la. So had a chat with him while waiting, apparently there were some cases where Mazda voided warranty. By right plug and play doesn't interfere but Mazda was being anal about it was his reason. So now while his technician is installing only I learned that YES if something were to eff up, Mazda can potentially void it. I asked him if they are allowed to void it if they cannot prove it was the OBD that caused any malfunction/defect; his answer is vague. But anyway, if something where to happen and I have to claim warranty, I can just go back and remove it. I really love the autofold though. Sometimes walkaway lock can be iffy and one time I walked away without checking it was locked. It wasn't. So by checking whether my side mirror is folded or not, I can visually confirm if it was locked or not.

P.P.P.S: Did anyone know that there was a door unlock button near your knee area? It's a very small button, when you press it, all car doors unlock. I did not know of it's existence at all and my SA also never mentioned nor did I see it in the manual book. WHY PUT THERE?? I have been manually opening my car doors via the car door and thought it wasnt very elegant for such a tech rich car. Placement is also weird.

Mazda 3 Sedan HS - Aluminum Metallic reporting in.

Got it yesterday, going through the owners manual. Damn it's thick and so many functions. Maybe because I've used to drive a simple stick drive car with no automation system at all. Haha

Talking about hidden buttons, I sent my car for ECU remap & the sifu told me that there's actually a button on the accelerator when you press full to turn on "aggressive driving mode". Never knew about this.

After googling, it's called a Accelerator Pedal Kickdown Switch.

Can take a picture of the button? Curious if it's a sports mode button lol

Ok googled it. It's like an overdrive mode for overtaking
