or a more appropriate way to say this is metallic materials? some people tested with big cardboard and it doesn't work, if they put aluminium sheet on the cardboard then it works

I don't like that uncle attitude, but I will go back just for the after sales service and cheaper price

Too bad I don't have a second car so hopefully no need to go back there anymore

my top speed on my m3 CKD is 193 km/h GPS speed, no performance mod, some owner gone even higher to 220km/h, i think the speed cut should be 220km/h, where you get the top speed of 180km/h? the brochure?



i didnt notice the rubber smell issue

from what i knew, the boot damper is for hatchback, sedan is using spring, and majority of m3 on the road is sedan

and the computer problem is for diesel engine which is not available for m3 in malaysia (yet)

i install the AIO tweaks that has this app included

almost every m3 also has this issue, so far no one has solution to it yet

the squeking sound seems like is solved for me, i went to equine park sc and they help me to apply some grease instead of change the parts, now doesn't seems to have have sound already, yesterday i drive under rain also seems like no problem

i got the knocking sound when going through bump, it doesn't really bother me but i will try to ask sc to change the parts for me, under warranty must claim kao kao

i thought all cars will have the same issue?

hmmm.....i go try with my aircond again see got the smell or not

dont upgrade, 19 inch look nice but will degrade the performance especially the OEM rims due to heavier weight

if you got the budget then go for lighter sport rims

lighter rims will have better acceleration

if you want black rims can just spray the current 18" to black and it will look good, i wouldn't recommend to upgrade to 19"

you can adjust the headlight level yourself

the level is not even is normal for ALL cars, driver side is lower to prevent blinding oncoming cars

so now no more kruk kruk sound? which sc you change it?

check for those scratches and make sure all the lights are working and tyres is in good condition

the car is generally problem-free beside the knocking sound from suspension

thumbs up for NO CVT

the insulation material at firewall there is visible from engine bay? never notice it

and what you mean by engine rattling noise?

changed mine at old klang road, the kruk kruk sound is caused by the front disc brake housing being too close to the disc so it knock against the disc when going through uneven road or bump

i also replaced my front bush stopper for the ngek2 sound when undercarriage is wet

go join m3c and m3sa facebook group

what insurance you using? now your car still in workshop?

i feel like mazda after sales not as good as others, you can search the branch manager email in mazda website or ask the email from SA, if you wanna reach the higher up like CEO or GM then i not sure also

i'm using Torco SR-1 5w30, gear change still the same but can feel a different in engine vibration and roar sound and i change it outside after i done my free service

when compare to the shell helix semi-synth from the free service, the semi-synth give the engine a very rough sound when accelerate and roar louder

torco has a softer roar and when accelerate slowly can feel the engine is more quiet until you reach like 4k rpm

but the price of torco is double the price of the semi-synth, quite expensive if you need to change it every 6 months or less
