3-4 weeks back i was in the pj federal showroom. there is a white m3 there with black bodykit.
u can go see there.

i think i will be there next monday for my first service, if got i update here.

OK, I'm nearrleee convinced...what sort of coating did you use? Appreciate some info....

Cheapest I found is Sierra Glow SG5 @ rm950 for m3, so far I'm satisfy with the water beading, after rain can see the side of the car and the hood is dry, only some flat area will collect water

Just now I went to sungai besi SC and check they say my SCBS is working fine from their diagnostic tool, and the brake pedal not smooth is normal

When I tell the mechanic I suspect my SCBS is not working they say m3 HS doesn't have the feature only m6 2.5L has it he even not convinced then ask me bring him to my car

Their mechanic don't know the car spec one is it?

I paid way more than I should have, with 5 years warranty I should have thought about whether I'm still using the same car or not after that long. Mine is called glass coating with 9H hardness to protect against "light" impact, with gimmick like coat my engine/tyre and sanitize my car and leather seat maintenance which is very cheap thing actually andnot even sure if necessary. My car is very shiny and easy to wash though, and very high visibility during rain. I was advised to bring my car only to proper carwash in case they simply use cloth that has rocks and etc which I thought was complete bollocks since according to the 9H hardness shouldn't I need to be less careful and not more?

I paid RM2k which brings the average to RM400 per year; I'm sure you can find cheaper with same benefits elsewhere. I regret the price but I never regretted the coating. I heard Sierra Glow is recommended.

smartphone glass is 9h hardness and even then it can be scratch by sand give the right amount of force

and the coating is just a thin layer, even though it is 9h hardness but i dont think it has what it takes to protect your car against a small flying stone unless the paint/coating for self healing capability

Is it possible to set the driver's side request button to only unlock the driver's door?

Tried the instruction in the manual and it didn't work.

Which method did you try? Manuals that I found cater to non-msian models.

That's why stated "light' impact only lo. TBH I really kick myself that I didn't know got self healing coating/wrap or else I would get that within a heartbeat.

too bad there is no self healing coat, only nissan got auto healing paint

i wonder if radar cruise control will be available soon, maybe import from other countries

i started to think that our car's onboard computer has all the features readily available, then it based on country or equipment installed to disabled unusable features

if there is certain sensors connected to the onboard computer then it will just work as it is

There is a possibility to enable the ACC, but equipment cost will be expensive. For ECU side too is a complicated process. It is not something simple as directly go in and enable a particular function (some BCM function yes, such as OEM drive off auto lock function, but without the proper hardware installed, it won't function, still under investigation how to enable it). To enable cruise control has something to do with mathematical programming.

Bro, so the price will be RM 350 (activation) + RM 444 (equipment purchased from Mazda) + RM 80 (installation)?

Curious to know, did you use your own car to do experiment?

Hope there will be some app that can display torque and HP like BMW idrive

Then unlock driver's door and hold the unlock button on the key fob method. It's in our manual as well.

I guess will ask them to help when I go in for 1st service.

edit: Oh wait you're right. Not in our manual.

Yes, hardware you can source yourself or you can ask the shops whether they have any cheaper solution for hardware, the installation RM80 are the workshops I went asking around in KL. Pay directly to your supplier/workshop.

RM350 is ECU software activation will be done by me with an appointment and payment to me.

Yes, Bluetooth OBD with Torque Pro phone app.

Damn it.. My car just 1 week didn't wash ( White ).. Just now evening washing and notice the front hood the dirt mark / water mark below side mirror was unable to wash away ady.. Shit.. Is it any way to remove the mark other than using polish machine?? Polish by hand is possible?? White car is indeed not easy to maintain huh...

oopss....i mean display the torque and hp from the CMU without using mirror link or connect the phone

since the CMU able to set vehicle settings like lightning, rain sensing wiper and etc, i guess it is possible for CMU to get info from the engine, just need someone to "hack" it

dark color like meteor gray also not easy, swirl mark is easily seen if not maintain well

actually both white and dark color car also can attract dirt easily, on white car you will notice black dirt while on dark color car you noticed will have yellow/brown/white color dirt

you can try claybar see if it help, wash > clay > wax is the most common and inexpensive DIY option

just back from kota kemuning using kesas highway, i was driving at 150km/h and between kota kemuning to sunway toll there are 2 section of the road got no street light my headlight is switched to AUTO and High Beam Control is switched to auto (push the stick forward) and the high beam did turn on even in pitch black area, lucky i immediately switch back to manual mode and turn on the high beam myself, during that time there was no car on both lane, i'm the only car there

and according to the user manual from Mazda USA i already met all the condition for HBC to activate yet it doesn't activate

i dont have dashcam so i cant record down

m3 can really reach 160-170km/h with ease and the car still stick to the ground, only the noise level is very unacceptable, i wonder if doing fender insulation alone will help reduce some noise

New version of AIO is out:

Download here.

EDIT 29/3/16

DO NOT INSTALL AIO V1.43 AT THE MOMENT.

Many reports of tweak version disabling USB ports with no easy way to solve the problem (There is a solution, just not simple)

V1.42 is ok and previous versions.

Just floor the pedal, wouldnt even realise you reached 160.... pushed the car to 210 as max so far, just get ready to smell strong burning scent in cabin when you do that lol...

Yes.. After 120km/h.. If u still accelerate heavily.. In the cabin really can smell the strong burning scent.. I thought wanna go back SC checking any manifold air leaking or what..
