how reliable is the away door lock mechanism? coz i always tend to double check if all doors are locked once i parked my car and walk away....and I only check the back passenger door (i assume if that is locked, all doors are locked, am i right?)

Thanks for tips! I can try them all lol

Not sure why but i only get 8.4km/l on my 2.2D
I think it's due to I still using the very first tank of diesel, used up almost 1/4 only mostly citydrive, i guess not enough sample yet?

did u guys install the windshield sun visor strip? is it needed anyway? i remember 10 years ago with my old car it was the first thing i installed. not sure about it now lol

when warming up engine my 2.2D engine got weird sound (high pitch sound) other than normal diesel engine sound, last for 4-5 seconds then went away. It happens everytime i started engine and waited about 1min. Anybody noticed that?

Thanks for your video and explanation. But my high pitch sound doesn't sound like the accelerated warmup sound (high rpm engine sound). It sounds abit like a cat is screaming softly with asthma, lol dunno how to describe maybe best to record audio next time. usually i don't open my door when warming up my engine from cold start overnight. But one day i did and that's why i can hear that sound.

if my car has only drive total 500km (before its first service), I wonder is it okay if i drive to Genting? Is there any 'myth' that I should only go Genting at least after first car service? lol

Ah, finally it happened to my new car! Was driving up to Genting last weekend and a stupid lorry was furiously fast in the middle lane and rocks and sands start flowing from it and i was in the fast lane and in front of me there was a car driving parallelly with the lorry....and so I'm forced to tail behind the lorry and i heard dreadful rocks and sands hitting my car....(facepalm)

although it's normal and in most cases unavoidable if driving in highways, still heart break seeing the paint chipped on my bonet...ouchhh! dunno if there is any touch up service to fix that if i wanted to

Agreed it's impossible to avoid that, unless don't go outstation (city drive is safer coz lorries can't drive too fast in traffic jam)

Yeah next time paint it with matte type, looks cool 😎

Intestesting....What does it look like? Are u satisfied with the end result?

lol that's what i do everyday as well, how annoying istop default to on though

yeah same here, applied vkool elite on FWS thinking it's the BEST, mana tau still hot like roasted chicken under the sun. Not sure if original skytint is better or my vkool is fake (don't think so la coz I got 'cert' and it was installed by SA)

Is this applicable to our CX5 gen2?

but if i buy also just put on back passenger seats....

oh I thought that is for full set! one piece cost rm118 hmm...I mean i only need these shades on rear seat windows

if not full car do they also provide partial repainting? perhaps few hundreds...

No free sunshades but i got option to get either rm1000 rebate -or- front & back dashcam + petrol voucher rm200 + tng card with credit rm100

i went for the second package (dashcam).

Carplay got come with Android Auto as well? or need to choose either one? Sorry i still don't understand how the deal works, but i would like to order from SC the next time i have my car service:)

sad to hear that...flying stones from which highway?

i did claim for my previous car (toyota altis) before but from some random shop outside, regretted my choice because the replacement FWS was very badly installed and can hear wind blowing when i drive (not even fast), and then i went back complain and they helped me install the second time, end up the same! But no water came in when raining, so i not sure where the gap came from...was a mystery and end up selling my car. Very bad experience and that's why scared to get hit by stones now.

Hopefully HQ can install it perfectly for u. Let us know how it goes

I need a phone mount for waze on my phone and the dashboard of cx5 is not flat except for far left so if driving alone really can't easily reach to my phone there lol

p/s: I haven't had time to install android auto and i feel phone waze is easier.

oh rm60 nice! thanks

I went for my first service recently at Mazda PJ (jalan 219), but I noticed after the service, I feel my car is not as powerful as before. I checked my service booklet they only changed engine oil (didn't specify what oil) and oil filter. My car is 2.2D and I already made sure the service agent knows it is diesel and he said they will use 0W-40 instead of 30 because bla bla (forgot what he said lol, something abt 40 is smoother).

I'm actually wondering...Could it be because they use engine oil for petrol mistakenly? I can't tell from my service booklet and if I ask the service agent he will certainly say it is 0W, but he is not the one servicing it, it's the technicians. Or, maybe just my 'illusion' that car is not powerful.......

Bermaz Motor Trading (PJ)
Lot 9 Jln 219,
46100 Petaling Jaya

https://mazda.com.my/ServiceDealer.aspx (if you filter by PJ it's the first one on the list, so I think it's legit)

As another guy replied earlier saying 0w-40 feels heavier but more protect engine, i will drive for a couple more days before decide what to do next. The reason i didnt go for glenmarie hq is because I read that alot of ppl complain here that HQ is very crowded and i scare they just cincai do, end up i feel the same here at pj

So i advise other ppl to go to HQ next time
