Thanks but that is not service manual

service manual is will tell you step by step assemble / disassemble parts, overhaul engines, wiring diagrams, it will tell you all the details of the car, how much torque to apply to each bolts and nuts as well.

With the service manual and OBDII, you can even trouble shoot the issue and know the details before sending it to factory.

some info to share with all car enthusiast/engineers.

Unfortunately i still can't find the Mazda 3 2016 service manual

silly question: how do we actually pump our tyre properly?
i mean, usually i went to petrol station, take the pump, pump until "ting-ting" alert comes out. that's it. never adjust the air pressure meter. is it ok or would cause tyre damage?

Check the suitable tire pressure on the side sill of driver's door. If 220/230 for front/rear, I usually +10 on both and pump.

yours probably is 18" Tyre.

This is mine with 16".

Yeah, most performance mods would void warranty. But don't you find the stock mapping very laggy? Always find that I have to rev above 3k-4k rpm if I want to accelerate to overtake.

Right now I barely need to rev that high. Its not that the car is more powerful after remapping, it just feels just smoother as power comes in quicker. Not to mention, no more speed limiter. lol.

overtake at 3k - 4k i think is quite a good power band to us. My ex-ride which is Persona AT 4 gears only, overtake may rise the RPM to above 4k lo.. and still find it slowly picking up.. hahaha..

MissHanz, I would advise you perform a check at SC. Dont think our Mazda3 is such a fuel thirsty monster. Previously I travel from Puchong to TTDI through LDP. Imaging 1 hr drive with almost 90% of time crawling in heavy traffic, I-stop was deactivated. I still can get above 500km per full tank. Round trip daily is around 50km, sometime it might take me 1 and half hour just to get back to Puchong.

yes bro, stock mapping is kinda laggy or i would say its tuned to be more fuel efficient, haha, notice that m3 likes to go to highest gear possible at all times..

i also cannot tahan that, tats why i added a taiwan ultra charger which cost around 1k, and a drop in stainless steel air filter.. believe it or not it does give me more torque in lower end rpm.. not to say a lot, but i feel better response..
yes bro, 3k-4k is really good, i came from persona too... same goes to me, need to rev real high for overtaking.. but i love m3 2nd gear the most, 3k-5k was real fast! 

Are shift paddles useful to control the gears rather than adding hardware or going for ECU remap?

Any chance someone has a spare stock M3 CKD HS tyre laying around? 215/45/R18   

Those that have change rims or downgrade size perhaps.

I see a lot issue with this tyre macam...
Why not consider changing it? Or you want 4 of them marking flat a bit more first only change ?

What happened to your tyre? You hit something or it's a defect? If defect you can go to SC and claim.

pretty sure i didnt hit anything.
tyres are not claimable though....plus its >5k mileage already....

hi, it looks definitely is external factor, maybe you park somewhere there is a sharp steel piece. BTW good luck to u bro.
