production line so limited? this is the most wanted colour I think, how can they produce so limited stock leh.
but CKD QC really questionable.. better not rush them..

Exactly and I'm just wondering... if it's a popular colour, why aren't they producing this colour in June and July? My journey of owning a Mazda has not been pleasant or smooth, quite disappointed with Mazda and SA. I hope after-sales is better...

so far, their SA really need a lot of improvement, customer service so far very responsive, but knowledge also need improvement.
their website need a lot of improvement, their app also need a lot of improvement.

If by good deal,you are thinking discounts and all. Sorry but I doubt you can find any with huge discounts and freebies especially on the GVC model which launched about a month ago. I just got my car last week even after booking at the launch event.

But if you want, I can share the SA contact who I dealt with. Pretty responsive and she has been helpful with whatever queries I had.

No need, plug the positive end to the positive terminal of the battery and the negative end to any metal surface on the car as ground.

makes me feel sad that my battery is walking into coffin liao....

They don't produce all the colours at simultaneously. Colours are produced sequentially so you have to wait for a particular colour.

Thanks... So far, looks like the Bosch C7 would come in handy around the house.

Dear mr,

How does a battery charger prolong the car battery life..mind to share? How frequent do u still need to charge.

Sorry just curious...though I know rotating car usage like week 1 car 1, week 2 car 2...does prolong the battery usage...aka
2 yr plus...crossing finger for extended life use..

Tks senior.

been driving GL for a month. M3 sound system is superb! my friends really love it. good for pre clubbing session. LOL

Oh I see... thanks for the info!

wait till our market can afford to provide bose sound system.

There are a number of factors that affect battery life, but most commonly over here is draining the power down to the level beyond recovery or from self discharge from prolonged storage. I'm not very good at explaining the chemical process, you can search up the net.

Car batteries can live a longer life by ensuring the charge to be more than half most of the time. Normally, the charge is topped up through the alternator when the car is moving. But, heavy traffic negates the charge potential of the alternator as the alternator charging is based on rev. under slow traffic condition, the alternators charge level is just slightly more sufficient to power the car's electronics and infotainment system, very little flow into the battery it self. The faster the rev, the more charge can be put on. The detailed physics of that be found by reading about electromagnetism. So usually, those people's car that drive long distances can last longer than average city driven cars.

So to negate the problem of too little charging, use the charger method to pull electricity into the battery. The frequency of charge is based on gut feeling. For me, i do it monthly. Some people do it quarterly or bi yearly. But if the battery drained too low beyond recovery, putting it on charge will not revive it back. Only deep cycle batteries like AGM/VRLA construction can be effectively revived from deep discharge.

dont expect skyactiv to have performance potential like other engine with turbo charged or old vtec engine, there are not many tuners here research thoroughly on tuning skyactiv engine, in other country like Taiwan or US they got more skilled tuners who really go deep in tuning skyactiv engine.

there are performance parts designed for skyactiv, but the price is not cheap though, cant compare with those mods for local-made cars

i dont care about SA after i get my car, but my SA still offer to help me to renew my roadtax and insurance

as for after-sales service, depends on SC, bermaz sc should have better service compare to other non-bermaz sc, we do have some sc that has been blacklisted by other member due to poor services

but so far we dont have major issue that need us to leave our car in sc for few days

Good to hear, I don't mind going out of the way to send my car to a reliable SC... hope to get more info from members once I get my car in August. Thanks for the reply...

mind to share which is the blacklisted SC?
if cannot post here maybe pm?

so far we blacklisted kepong sc, for me i dont like sg besi sc, because very hard to enter and exit the sc but they dont need booking for regular service, which is good if other sc is fully booked

thanks for your info, I think I saw bad comment about kepong sc previously .. forgot from where...

Hi many thanks for the thorough explanation.

How long did u keep u r m3 battery before replacing with which model battery and make?

U r explanation was logical...cheers.

SC at the Setapak area good?

Hi any demo car hi spec for sale? I'm keen. Thank you
