Ground clearance? Don't think it's an issue since the suspension is on the firm side, it should be able to clear like any normal car.

As for the colour, well, it's a personal preference but for me, I went for Polymetal! Love it!  tongue.gif
Machine Grey or Soul Red looks stunning to on the LB too! So, you wouldn't go wrong with these 3 colours, IMHO.

Lastly, I'm totally enjoying every minute driving the M3 from day 1 of getting the car. wub.gif

Surprised to hear about this. On my 2015 Mazda 3 I can set the fan speed to level 3 even in the hottest weather. Night or cloudy day can set to 2. Coldness is set to minimum.

Any SC can do it, very simple job for them....

The trickier one is actually the transmission filter change.
*
Oh, how much will the filter change cost?

At the SC, all in inclusive of transmission fluid change, around the range of rm500-600.

Just that some SC very kanasai, because transmission filter change is not a scheduled maintenance job, so don't want to do the job.

Shop a few SC around you or get an experienced 3rd party mechanic to do the job, could also be cheaper. And please, only use original mazda atf FZ fluid.
*
Wow, that's quite expensive.

Since SC doesnt want to do it (including the one i usually go to, i've asked), will going to the 3rd party mechanic void any of the gearbox warranty? Even if use original mazda atf fluid

If just pure transmission fluid change, most SC are alright with it, very easy, almost like oil change. Won't void warranty, don't understand why the SC you visited don't want to do this job. Just find another SC then.

What i refer earlier is inclusive of transmission filter change, this one more labourious. Because the skyactiv transmission oil pan don't have a physical gasket, but use a special RTV sealant, probably due to reaction of the fluid against the rubber. To refit the pan is a little pain in the ass, you can refer to some youtube videos on the process.

The original fluid and filter cost about 200 each, add in labour and some consumables, 500-600 is actually about there.

Thanks, will look into it. SC doesnt want to change cos they claimed ATF is life-long.

Is this a good deal?

QUOTE(studentsurvey @ Jun 25 2020, 02:32 PM)
Hey guys, a quick ques, my free maintenance will be up soon. Do I need to continue servicing in authorised mazda service center to ensure my warranty (another 2 more years) is valid?
Or can I go to any outside technician?
*
To maintain warranty, you need to go to authorised SC.

I think the majority of the folks here will likely agree that it will be more cost effective to service your car outside once your car's OEM warranty has expired given the fact that you have more flexibility in sourcing your own parts, lubricants, etc at a more competitive price vs following the OEM's strict servicing checklist/mileage intervals.

However, if you're in a situation whereby you have no trustworthy mechanics/workshops within proxy of your house and only the Mazda service center is the only one nearby, perhaps it might be a worthwhile tradeoff.

This is for during warranty period (but outside of free service period).
Before this, Mazda only gave 3 years free service and 5 years free warranty. So after the first 3 years, have to remain with SC to maintain warranty.

Hi, just want to ask about battery life. already changed battery less than a year ago, and now on my final free service and they are advising me my battery level is at 30-40%. changed new battery around August 2019.

I'm having mazda 3 2.0 skyactiv 2018 facelift model, and i have been using i-stop ever since.

Is the battery life only around 1 year plus? How is it with or without i-stop?

Bermaz quoted around RM700 for battery but said can actually get cheaper outside. Any recommendations for outside around KL/PJ area?

Try contacting Jason. His shop fb page:

The best one is Varta which I think around RM480 only

Guys, want to check if anyone has experienced similar issue - definitely not major but it irks me sometimes. When driving, sometimes there's rattling sound from the infotainment system area. Wonder if the installation wasn't 'tight' enough or something?

i had this problem, brought to SC and they managed to rectify it.... apparently they put a tape inside
