Can't argue anymore

Wondering u guys experience, when u want to engage ur car from stop motion "P gear" to "D gear", is it not so smooth will have a little bit of brake sound like "hee" sound ?

Or when u r stopping after u fully press the brake and engage from "D gear" to "P gear", ur car will still shift abit.

Is it normal or this is Mazda technology not to spoil the gear ?

paultan just released a spied photo of a potential m3 facelift, go have a look

Hi,

Did any of you get the original bodykit from Bermas?

Any pics?

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

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

I like the front for the Mazda oem bodykit. lol

look for storm bodykit.

carbon in motion get the bodykit from mazda as well?

gloss black, wonder how it looks with my meteor grey color?

i'm not sure whether they get the bodykit from mazda, but the bodykit sure look the same as OEM one

i also wonder if black will look good with meteor grey, since we both driving the same color

If is the mazda OEM kits, I would say black look nicer

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 is EZY Touch Up Paint any good? or will it come out as ugly patches and better to leave it as is?


Thanks!

anyone tried buying from this site before?

http://www.mazdaparts.org/mazda-3-2014-all...-floormats.html

and the scuff plates look sick, too bad in USD

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

BTW. I got 1 question. I wash my car myself every weeks mostly, how to prevent scratches from the cloths ya. I already separate 2 cloths and still cannot prevent.

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.
