anyone has their SCBS activated before? i tried a few times where i'm danger close to a car in front of me and SCBS doesn't activate, it was so close that i almost cannot see the rear bumper of the car already, but of course i was able to hit the brake so no collision happened

i tried before under 30 km/h and under 25 km/h and the SCBS doesn't activate at all

and while driving i noticed some strange behavior with the car, not sure it is normal or not
- when i'm coasting slowly and once the speed dropped to 30km/h or lower, i can feel the car is trying to stop itself, is like changing from 2nd gear to 1st gear similar to engine braking

- when i press the brake pedal, i can hear some hydraulic hissing sound hmm.gif and when i try to press the brake pedal 100% i can feel there are some stopping point in the middle, the action is not smooth

is this 2 behavior an intended design? hmm.gif
*
I don't feel that when I brake. Or I'm not that sensitive for that? I not sure. If it really bothers you better check at SC. Btw the safety feature do activate only above 40km/j if not wrong? I'm driving a GL so I cannot give you any experience, but I do see few video from youtube that test on this feature and it works.

Who drive Mazda 3 GL, pls check your front and rear light izzit fog up onot when raining?

I check my GL at Glenmarie mazda and they said this should be happen to all mazda 3 and cant claim for warranty due to natural phenomena.

So if new buyer pls consider to buy high spec than GL.

Mine GL is like that, but only first week. After that ok already.
Also complain to SC at 1K and been told is natural on next visit.

you can get it from Asia Body Kit
https://www.facebook.com/asiabodykit.offici...460597734095477

the bodykit is not bad, but look too aggressive for me, especially the quad exhaust

if anyone managed to find a rear bumper/diffuser that can expose the dual exhaust, do let me know drool.gif
around 2k-2.5k come with the car in newer batch, for me it's not worth it

can see it here http://mazda3revolution.com/forums/attachm...18&d=1399565572

Carbon In Motion got sell http://www.carboninmotion.com/mazda-3-skya...iv-full-bodykit

hey guys, i have a few issues and questions on my m3 and would appreciate any advice.

1. Every once in a while, there's a loud cracking sound around my dashboard, it sounded like a stone hitting the windshield. At first i thought there was stone hitting my windshield and i was scared but this kept happening for 5 months since i got my car, now i am sure it is not stone hitting my windshield cause i dont see any stones everytime this happen. I start to suspect the sound came from my dashboard, probably some plastic parts in the dashboard which cause this sound? Anyone of you experience the same thing can tell me where the sound came from?


2. i notice a hissing sound around front passenger seat everytime i go over road that's not very even. the sound is constant like some part is loosen. My friend manage to trace and it seems to be coming from under the passenger seat. There's a black box thingy with wires, but i checked everything is sturdy. Again would like to get some advice is you guys had encounter this? my 10k service is due in 2 months, thought i should find out the problem and tell them to fix it.


3. Passenger seat reclining adjustment lever is very 'tight', need to use a lot of force to pull it only can recline. I'm afraid someday it will break the thing. Does yours pull easily?


4. Not a problem but just want to know whats the average FC you guys considered normal. My FC averagely around 8L/100km, 50% highway 50% city drive. Is this considered ideal? normally full tank i can travel around 500KM only with 2 bars left. I read some can go 600KM+. I tried to sail smooth whenever i can, but also some heavy footed driving when i'm alone and in highway.



5. Had some scratches on my bumper, meteor gray sad.gif is EZY Touch Up Paint any good? or will it come out as ugly patches and better to leave it as is?
Thanks!

1. This are discussed before. And even have PDF file to counter it. It's quite normal as most of us got this sound. Need to trace back. I try to find back it later.
2. I do not have this problem .. hmm.
3. Mine same as well, like going to break it like that.
4. I think normal. Mine can go 500-600
5. I dont know. lol

1) Does it sound like a loud "piak" or "tik" sound? Happens mostly on hotter days for me, hardly hear that during night driving or colder days. Maybe something or the screen is not adhering correctly. I just live with it, because mine happen in random, hard to replicate. So won't consult SC on this for now.

2) Is it the absorber sound?

3) The springs are tight. If want to adjust, put a bit of force when resting your back to the seat, then only pull the lever. The action will be smoother that way.

4) If you heavy foot alot and like 4k rpm and above, hard driving highway, your fuel consumption will be high, cannot run away from that. With 2 bars left, you can travel another 50km without worries. The fuel tank is 50L. This car's engine also don't like crawling and idling, drink a lot of fuel during that. Don't compare with vios/myvi/city/almera, these cars are lighter and smaller engine capacity. It is known that direct injected engines don't cope very well with mild engine loads.

5) For me, I would say no harm trying. The paint formula is known in the paint market and can formulate to factory specifications. The part you have to be concerned is the application part, follow carefully then should be ok. Just don't expect perfect finish like the paint shops sifus. If too deep scratch or big patch, cannot rescue....
Did you use soap? And is your cloth genuine mircofibre? If you just want to quick wipedown without soap, it can only be done with very light dust. But for our climate and dusty environment, better soap and wash la....

I din use soap, just plain running plain water. Let the water flow slowly and wash.

No wonder la...the soap bubbles will carry the dirt away and also act as a lubrication to avoid/minimise scratching of the paint surface. Anyway the swirl marks are not that difficult to remove, just need to right technique and product.

Forgot to add, even if use quick wipedown method, also need detailing liquid or paint lubricant with microfibre cloth.

You can get some ideas and inspiration from here (all videos) :

I got use microfibre cloth. And ok I will go read and choose a good soap to use.
