QUOTE(Chinoz @ Mar 29 2016, 06:43 AM) My feel is that there's a reserve of 5L from when the range reaches 0. Don't count on a reserve of 5L. In a tank there may be some liquid which cannot drain out due to the position of the pipe. So treat 0 range as really 0 and if you are still running, you are running on luck.

QUOTE(wim1983 @ Apr 24 2016, 12:44 AM) Hi sifu, I'm soon M2 owner, wanna ask how you all feel about the I Active Sense experience? I thought the smart city brake system can be useful when traffic jem, just no need press any pedal, and let the car brake auto when traffic jem? How cool is the side led warning when driving and cutting in highway, is it work accurately or annoying too much to some "smart" drivers? Reverse led? I definitely like to have the auto open light when in dark gateway feature. Anything else to complain on the I Active Sense systems? The SCBS is not meant to be used this way. It may not stop your car reliably in a traffic jam as it only works when your speed is at least 4km/h. If it does kick in it will stop the car abruptly so there is a risk the car behind you may whack into your backside. QUOTE(JIUHWEI @ Apr 24 2016, 09:21 AM) Dear sifus, While driving today I noticed an istop warning and also battery management system warning. What does that mean and how do i fix it? It means your battery is not suitable for i-stop. Did you change your battery to normal type recently or is your battery due to be changed? This post has been edited by kluseng: Apr 24 2016, 11:34 AM

It's possible to tune the Skyactiv engine to improve low end torque but the problem is finding someone who can do it properly. A few local tuners I've checked out can't even show a proper before/after performance curve so I wouldn't let them mess with my M3. For the moment there is no creditable ECU tuner for our M3 but I stand to be corrected if someone can prove me wrong.

If you are very used to the brakes of your previous ride changing to a car with brake pedal which is slightly harder to press or has a longer travel can make you feel as if the new car's brakes are abnormal. They can be adjusted but you probably need to get used to the new brakes.

QUOTE(deenul @ Apr 28 2016, 10:04 PM) Guys, am new here. Gonna own Mazda 3 soon, loan was approved but really in dilemma wether to choose hatchback or sedan. Hatchback manufactured in 2015 and 2016 instead. Any comment? Get the sedan unless you really must have the hatchback based on looks. The hatchback is basically sold at sedan HS price with GL features.

QUOTE(Tech26 @ May 2 2016, 08:27 AM) MissHanz, this is not weird.. Once I pump full for my car.. The range on the meter show is about 600km.. But actually I only manage to get 450km-480km for a full tank until fuel light on. Mine also normally drive 110km/h - 140km/h if not many cars around.. and is control myself to be light footed some more.. If u want to observe ur driving style.. U could change the meter setting to "Current Litre/100KM".. At 1st gear and 2nd gear must special light foot and after 3rd gear maintain the current Litre/100KM is below 8Litre/100KM.. And u sure will get FC 500km/tank above.. What is your mix between city and highway? Getting 450km - 480km for a full tank (about 44L before light up) is not very good unless it is 100% city driving with traffic lights every short stretch. You should not need to drive carefully just to get 500km or more. My mix is 50% city and 50% highway and I'm getting 580 km per tank without needing to be light footed.

QUOTE(neekun @ Jul 7 2016, 12:05 PM) Finally experienced SCBS this morning. Car in front of me looking for parking and all out of sudden a car out from parking and car in front sudden brake, me being the car behind following closely the SCBS kicked in with beep sound and brake itself. But I also press the brake too la and I felt the brake is already pre-pressed for me haha. So could you stop in time without SCBS?
