2014 Mazda 3

[jcal68]

mukang ikaw na nga sir! hehe

Meron kasi akong nadadaanan everyday na ewan ko ba kung bakit laging basa. White pa naman HB ko at sayang linis ko kung matilamsikan ng putik. I installed mud flaps out of necessity.

[jcal68]

White or black? Since I'm still waiting for my unit to arrive. a 1.5, I still have time to change my mind. i ordered the black but the white appeals to me too. Any pros and cons on those 2 choices. Ayoko lang talaga ng silver

And another thing is when it comes to cleaning. Maraming singit na kailangan linisin. Ask ko lang. . . anong singit preference nyo. . .maitim o maputi? (ngek! hehe)

Hmmmm, mazda3 sky fb club doesn't seem to take aluminum HBs in. Join request left unanswered as I don't have pix there. Oh well, we've this site anyway.

Silver HB ung sakin sir and I'm in. Just post a proof of you and your car to the administrator.

And I saw a Soul Red Speed variant kanina near FEU. Ang angas tignan in flesh ng Speed na Soul Red! Yun gf ko nga bigla ako tinawagan kanina kasi akala niya ako daw yun. Eh sabi ko paanong ako yun eh hindi ko pa nga nakukuha yun sa akin

hmmm. . .is this a premonition that you might change your GF once you get your M3?

Happy new year everyone! Dumadami na tayo dito a. Congrats to the new owners!

My small contribution to the community here. I called up four of the five Casas (except for where I got my unit) and inquired about Petron. Now this looks like a dead issue already since 50 pages na siyang hindi discussed, but I wanted to confirm na rin. Here's what I got:
- all four say it's okay, basta 91 lang
- one speculated that Berjaya is connected with Shell. Those are his words, not mine
- one said that the lowest octane rating in Petron may not be 91. Again, his words, not mine - although I doubt if this is true

So for those Petron fleet card holders like me, go crazy

Also, kung ang sumagot ng phone sa Service e babae naghahanap ako ng technical na person ba akong pwede kausapin, pero kung lalaki e tinatanong ko na agad. ***ist ba ako? Hehe

Brad, I have a black one.
Kung masipag ka magmaintain ng kalinisan, okay lang.
Kung hindi, isusumpa mo ang bawat patak ng ulan na papatak sa kotse mo.

Hindi ko lang alam kung ganun din katindi sa white.

Tsaka mas kita gasgas at swirl marks sa black.
Pero iba pa rin ang dating ng black lalo na kung bagong linis. Serious tingnan.

Kung hatch ka, mas gusto ko white sa hatch, hindi ko alam kung bakit parang mas bagay siya.

I agree with their Shell connection. My temporary plate which bears the conduction sticker number has the Shell logo beside the Mazda dealer's logo.

Sakin naman, 'yung paper na nakacover sa floor mat (passenger and driver) before ko ilabas sa casa 'yung sasakyan for the first time, nakalagay 'Mazda recommends Shell Fuels' IIRC.

It's really ok, I never fb anyway.

Hahaha! Nope. In fact, siya pa ang madalas managinip ng M3 kesa sa akin. Feel ko nga, mas excited pa siya sa akin eh

Medyo Maselan pala sa Fuel ang SkyActiv. I gassed up one time at a Shell station somewhere in Pampanga. I used Shell FS 91 since first fill-up. but this time, the Engine is whining a bit. like it has an asthma which is bothering me at times. akala ko dahil i tested it to 180kph prior to gassing up i thought that has something to do with the whining thing. what i did was i drained the tank until there were no bars on the fuel gauge then gas up. after some ten kilometers I immediately noticed na wala na. 2.0R here.

Possible kaya dahil sa gas galing sa Pampanga? Baka kaya may halo?

Bad gas happens. On pump health, always remember we have direct injection engines which means we have high pressure fuel pumps that need fuel as its coolant. It's never a good idea to run on empty. Ask Bimmer guys.....So many HPFP failures even on the 1seriesM. Another known weakness of DI engines is the dreaded carbon build up w/c needs walnut media blasting. Hope our Sky engines are better than the Euro 1s.

Black? Doing this?

Black? Doing this?

Ganda, stock ba yung wheels niyan?

Nope, aftermarket ones. Kung stock wheels yan, aba'y talbog ang 18" rims na available sa 2.0R na nakakabit sa PH units!

[NewbDriver]

Ganda! Naka-lowered na rin yata 'to no?

Kinda OT: Shells is on a roll lately. They recently partnered with Hyundai. Makes sense because they get a steady volume buyer of their products through the casas.

[travajante]

Rim prices are size, make & model dependent. Copies are way cheaper starting from around 30k up.
