You could have got your tyres rotated in a tyre shop for much less than RM80. I'm sure it won't void your warranty.

Don't know where you are from but in Klang I can get my tyres rotated for RM20.

You can buy numbers in advance but numbers issued will have to wait for the sequence to reach your number. If you don't want the hassle just pay RM310 to your SA to select number. That's the usual price they charge.

Are you sure you want the hatchback? It's like paying the price for the HS but getting the GL specs for the hatchback.

Hope it sounds good too (lower noise).

I drove from PJ to Penang on half a tank of petrol. Average FC 5.5L/100km. Going at 120 - 130 km/h most of the time. Very economical for highway travelling.

When your avg speed increases you get better FC. It probably has less to do with the brand of petrol than how much city driving you were doing.

Our M3 is good for overtaking when you are travelling at a decent speed like 80-90 km/h but not so responsive when you are starting off from standstill or going at low speed. In that case we have to rev the engine before the power comes after a slight lag. If the remap can give better response at low speed/low rpm I think it is worth it already. But how to test a remapped M3 before deciding? That is the problem.

What film did they put for your front windscreen. It can't be Diamond 6 or Crystal 6 as those are security tints which you can't used for front. Their VLT also don't comply with JPJ if used for front windscreen.

According to their Website Llumar Gold has VLT of 63% (TSER 43%) and Llumar Silver has VLT 57% (TSER 41%) so neither will comply with JPJ of VLT 70% for front windscreen. The only tint which may comply are AIR90 (VLT86% TSER 28%) or AIR80 (VLT 78% TSER 43%).

Even AIR80 probably won't comply as our glass is already slightly darkened.

However if your front windscreen don't look too dark to get through JPJ/police road block it's OK. Just be prepared to tear it off before Puspakom inspection when you sell your car.

In fact I think 90% of cars on the road don't comply with the front windscreen ruling. It's a choice between complying and getting poor TSER or not complying and getting decent TSER.

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

There's a Vkool vendor in this thread, Lonely143. You can ask him for a quote.

The CannyCool website doesn't mention TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejection) which is the most important spec. UVR and IRR are useless as there is no standard so manufacturers can base on a narrow band or just a single wavelength to give impressive figures.

Better go for the established brands, IMO.

What's next? Go and enjoy your car! It's like getting a new and girlfriend and asking what's next?

There is no difference in torque or power below 4500 rpm. After 4500 rpm there is some increase in torque and power at the expense of richer air/fuel but it doesn't affect your FC because you hardly drive at such high rpm. If this is your dyno curve it doesn't explain the better pickup you say you are getting at low rpm.

There is no problem driving the car when the key has left the vicinity. The car is unable to re-start when the engine is off, that' all.

Anybody installed Raytech Ultra 70 on their Mazda 3 front windscreen? As our glass is originally slightly darkened is the result dark enough to attract JPJ attention? Is the vision still acceptable driving at night?

The link for the Android app for Castscreen does not work. The one at Mazda3Revolution also doesn't work (same link). Can someone point me to a usable link to get the Android app?

Thanks.

It's working now, thanks. Must be due to bad connection on my part.

I'm sending my car in for tinting at Raytech tomorrow. Anything I should watch out for first? I certainly don't want to get a free dent like this Jetta owner.

So adaptive headlights (following the curve) doesn't work in low beam?
