hello,

I am thinking of getting a Mazda 3 sedan (skyactiv 2.0). I have a few questions hope you don't mind..

1.is the current model the facelift or pre-facelift model?
2.is the new generation Mazda 3 coming out anytime soon?
3.when is the Diesel skyactiv engine coming?
4.what is the FC for mixed city/highway driving?

thanks!

hi guys..

any more 2010-mazda 3 owners here?

i am having a few issues with my M3-2010 as below, appreciate if you guys can advise,

1) Passenger side door (front & rear) not locking when lock the driver's door. Sent to Mazda-SC, told me to change the door lock actuator, any of you guys had the same problem before? Strange thing is, i can lock all doors using the remote (with double tap-single tap on the lock button only locks driver side)
2) Jerking when putting the car in reverse, updated the TCM at Mazda-SC, however still the same, only a bit of improvement. Gearbox problem? Or TCM problem?
3) CEL with code P0296 - Post Catalyst System Fuel Trim Too Lean on Bank 1. Mazda-SC told me to clean the throttle body, anyone with the same CEL before? Any rectification?
4) Sound like water splashing under the car when going through uneven road. It sounded like i was carrying a big bottle of water under the car.

Appreciate if you guys can advise if you have any of the same problem.

for your point no 3

Hi Expert, I noticed that my steering wheel leather peeling off. It started off with some notable tiny flakes coming off and eventually become like this. Any fix for this?

I do apply Turtle Wax leather protection on monthly basis.

did happen to my previous car before, culprit is wedding ring design with sharp edges...

now no longer wear it, place it in safe place, no such issue anymore biggrin.gif

Gus, just did my 10k service in SMG Auto Sri Rampai, Setapak

share my experience here.

Drove in on Saturday 930am, there wasn't any customer over the premises, except 1 suzuki swift still on the service bay (this used to be suzuki SC).

opt for Fully syn upgrade and cancelled off all the "recommended extras" (wiper washer, engine treatment injector cleaner...bla bla)

reported some knocking noise from everytime engine restart back from istop function.

car is in service bay, noticed that mechanic placed shell hx7 instead of fully yn beside my car. When told, then only apologized "sorry took wrong"

The Shell Fully syn is 5w-40 (4L) + 1 L 5W-30, i feel a bit skeptical about this, since my previous oil was 5W-30 during 1st 1K service.

Mechanic tried to tighthen lower arm bolt for the suspected noise issue as above, in the end the lower arm bult thread got damaged and claimed its rusted due to accumulation of water (does anyone faced this?)

claimed to top up my battery water, and remainder of fluid placed in the boot, but never saw it there.

Conclusion:

1. Despite lack of customer traffic, I personally found that this SC does not gave me a peace of mind, everything needs to be double checked. God knows what happened if i wasn't there to inspect.

2. even im on fully syn now, but it feel heavier than usual, is 5W-40 meant for this skyactiv anyone can confirm?

3. Last good news, battery still can claim for free (if within 1 year or 20,000km) but replacement is only same Wet type.

4. Was told that the SC in Berjaya Industrial Park is better. any experience from you all?

5W-30 is recommended for SKYACTIVE as per the manual.

Battery is under the standard warranty of 1year or 20,000km whichever comes first. (This is standard throughout all Battery used in all cars)

thanks for this, in my case 5w-40 has been used by the SC and it deviate from the recommended viscosity, is there anything we can do?
