2014 Mazda 3

I see. Thanks sa info sir. So I therefore conclude walang relay ang stock horns at naka direcho sa fuse mismo ang connection, tama ba conclusion ko?

Lastly, how thick my wires should be for the Bosch Europa?

Meron relay ang stock horns. Sabihin nalang natin na malakas sa demand ng kuryente ang Europa kaya kelangan rekta ang supply niya sa battery. Usually naman sa mga aftermarket na busina eh ganyan ang gagawin. How thick, magdala ka ng gauge 12 wires just in case

Really like my Mazda Alabang SA Angel Medina. She again reminded me of my scheduled PMIS this May. Let's see kung meron bayaran in excess sa Yojin.

I met a M3 speed owner last Saturday. They said that they have requested the dealer to have their "painted black rims" to be replaced which was also the common problem with the other owners reported in M3 Skyactiv Club in FB. I'm not quite sure what type of rims they are trying to replace it with but according to the fellow M3 owner I talked to, some were successful and their replacement is ongoing. I tried joining the said group in FB to know what the fuss is all about and messaged the admin but no response. Have you guys also heard about this news and planning to have your rims replaced?

[NewbDriver]

Guys, ano ba size ng wiper na pwede sa M3? And ano'ng magandang brand?

Nag-skip / squeek na agad 'yung sakin mga 6 months in eh.
Strange, lagi naman ako indoor parking.

EDIT: Wait, nasa manual ba 'yun? 'Di ko pala muna chineck.

Kung punta ka sa bilihan ng wiper blades, meron na sila dun listahan ng sizes. Bosch or nwb are good brands.

Sumasagot naman yun si Ritz. Baka nga lang hindi ka nakapag-submit ng requirement na mag-message ng isang picture of you kasama ang M3 mo.

RE: Black rims ng Speed
Yep, may issue yan, which is paint chipping/deterioration. Ang totoo naman kasi eh rims ng 2.0 lang yun sa Speed na kinulayan ng black. Mukhang di ata naging ok ang quality ng pagkakapintura kaya nagkakaroon ng premature deterioration. Nag-offer naman ang Mazda PH na palitan/repair yun rims ng Speed owners. Luckily, hindi ko ito naabutan kasi yun sa akin is naka gunmetal colored rims na.

Try cleaning your windshield thoroughly first. Sayang naman, OEM yan so Made in Japan yan malamang. It should last you a long time.

Microtex has a product named Glaz NO squix for skipping wipers which is like a sort of lubricant for wiper blades. If your windscreen is dirty though, it will still skip, regardless of brand. As for cleaning it, I find Glaz Stainz out, satisfactory (nakakapagod lang kasi wala pa ako buffing machine).

** not an agent of microtex, just a satisfied stingy user.

Microtex din usually ang binibili ko pero hindi ko pa yata nakita itong product na 'to. San kaya meron in particular sir?
And saan 'to pinapahid, sa wiper blade o sa windshield mismo?

Naghahanap ako dati nung mga pinapahid sa wiper blades eh, kaso hindi na yata uso 'yun?

Thanks sir di ko alam may requirements pala.

RE: Rims
Ano ba ino-offer nila na ipalit sa rims? Or repaint/powder coat lang?

Sabi, palit rims daw. Same rims pa rin pati kulay pero bagong set daw. Kung ako lang, repaint nalang to gunmetal para same na sa 2015 models :D

Ganito ba ang itsura ng gun metal nyo

Casa already has a fix for the "lagutok" sound. Was told that they need to install a rubber insulator somewhere in the shocks. They will also replace the both front shocks. Downside is i have wait for at least a month as the rubber is to be sourced from mazda plant abroad. Will bear with the irritating sound in the meantime

Sir, sinong mazda dealer ang nagsabi sa inyo nito? I plan to bring my M3 hatch kasi sa casa to have my car inspected for the knocking sound. Usually lumalabas yung lagutok kapag napadaan sa humps or any uneven surface. Parang sa driver side nanggagaling yung sound. Nagiging malimit at irritating na kasi.

PMS ko bukas and I mentioned the lagutok sound. Balitaan ko kayo kung anong findings and recommendations nila.

Seem's ito ang sakit ng M3 ah, dami nyo ng nagsasabi ng lagutok, next will be kalampag na if not fixed agad. Well, i guess that's where Yogin come's i handy.

I noticed yung speed display is viewed via projection on top of the dash board thru a plastic flipping up upon start. I just wonder how visible it would be if under the bright sunlight? I test drive the speed earlier and i can't see a thing on that plastic sheet. Is there a switch or something to make it visible under bright light? Yung kasama kong nag test drive sa casa stereo lang alam eh.

Usually sir sa Ace, Truevalue at Blade meron. You can also clay your windshield para mas malinis.

Hmmmm, sa akin eh langitngit sound doon sa may passenger side pero sa akin eh medyo tolerable pa naman.

Yun HUD na speedo ng 2.0R, kahit under bright sunlight, kitang kita pa rin sa akin. May adjustment yan doon sa infotainment ng sasakyan.

2.0R din ang order ko. How is the sound system since 6 speakers cya? I initially wanted the speed except for the skirts kasi takaw sabit lang, they won't offer discount less the skirts.

No idea doon sa sound system ng 2.0 since Speed yun unit ko. Sabi nila, decent naman daw ang sounds ng 2.0. Yun unahan lang naman ang takaw sabit. Yun side skirts ko up to now wala pang sabit
