2014 Mazda 3

[rei_lied]

Sa mga nagpapalit na ng horns, hindi ba kayo nasita ng Casa? Anyone who got their warranties void for horn replacement?

Planning to have horn replacement sa Goldcars before the end of the year.

️Sir do you the no. Of Mazda quezon ave. Nag SUA yung mazda3 ko... Need ko ipa tow nalang sakanila...2x na a few hours ago Lang...

Woah! Please keep us updated sir. It will be a great help kung madidistinguish nila ang problema at kung ano ang reason bakit nangyari yan.

balongbalong sir, you just articulated every reason why I never fell for the cover trap. Cover washing is far more complex than doing the car. Haha...& how do we prevent this? Cover the cover w/ another cover???? Hahaha.:D
Life is much simpler w/o em....even w/ OCD. Hahaha.

Ah, this is my problem also as my cover is already covered with dried bird poops.

Nope, di naman ako nasita. Wala din naman sa kanila kung nagpalit ka ng busina. As long na reversible ang process, wala kang dapat ipagalala...

Testament... Tumawag na ako Mazda quezon ave. Arrange na namin for towing...

Ok. Sana makwento dito nang buo paano ang nangyari doon. Pinag-uusapan na rin namin sa grupo yun incident ninyo

[balongbalong]

Actually hindi ako may gamit.. Ang Anak ko... Nag hihi rev. Daw-- Wild ang term nya... Kaya pina test nya sa driver ko... Bigla daw umatras... Comfirm ko muna.. Mabuti...

whatever the claim of your son/daughter/driver is, i hope walang na saktan or namatay.

BUT

please confirm before making such claims sa SUA, especially now that its being sensationalized, and quite frankly a lot of misinformation going around with mitsubishi vs its customers and dti about SUA

[testament11]

One thing is for sure sa Mz3 natin. Di ka pwede mag-shift from P to any point nang di umaapak sa brake. Same thing from N to R, kelangan apakan ang brake. Sa Montero, kahit di ka umapak ng brake, pwede mong ilipat ang shifter from P to R, pero you need to press the brake from N to R.

Di rin mag-rerev ang engine natin hanggang di mo apakan. Di rin siya magshi-shift kahit na apakan mo nang todo ang gas.

But still, kelangan natin marinig ang buong kwento kung SUA nga ba o driver error lang yun nangyari kay Boss Glenn

Here's the complete story-- According to my driver, when he was going to moved the car, naka depress cya sa brakes at naka handbrake.. Nung ilalagay na nya sa reverse.. Bigla daw nag rev. Up to 2k rpm... While naka brake pa cya at naka handbrake... Then he shift it immediately back to park.. Tapos while on park mode-- inapakan nya ulit yung gas ng paulit ulit to check kung back to normal na.. Nung napansin nya back to normal na.. Inatras na nya ulit yung sasakyan.. As if Walang nangyari...

Sa daugther ko naman.... There was a time daw she let go of the gas na daw.. Pero nag aaccelerate pa din... Pero hindi naman super accelerate... Normal accelerate parang nakaapak ka pa sa gas.. It happened daw only once.. And hindi naman daw na nya pinansin..

To be sure nalang... Pa tow nalang, pa check... Then let's see kung nagkakamali ba sila or what...

RE: Driver's scenario
Di kaya naka-apak ang right foot din niya sa accelerator, parang heel and toe position?

RE: Daughter's scenario
True, tatakbo ang sasakyan natin kahit di mo apakan ang gas basta nasa D ito. Na-observe ko na yan dati, nasa 6-7kph ang speed nito pag nasa D without pressing the gas. So normal ang scenario na ito.

What puzzles me lang ay yung sa driver mo, kung ano ang position niya nung nangyari yun

Glenn sir, we're all glad nothing tragic has happened. I certainly hope this was just due to our M3's "Accelerated Warmup System".

What’s the Accelerated Warmup System? While the average engine may take several minutes to warm up in cold temperatures, your Sky engine is different. Using a higher RMP of about 1500, as well as an advanced combustion process, the catalyst is warmed up quickly, resulting in cleaner emissions. It will slowly become quieter as the accelerated warm-up is completed and the whole thing should take around thirty seconds.
So, do you need to wait for the Accelerated Warmup to complete before you take off? Not at all, but be aware that the car will run above the normal rpm. Just head out on your way and let your Sky engine do the work.

The term SUA should be used w/ much prudence. I hope this will be sorted/explained for your welfare & everyone's peace of mind.

yup bothering yung driver scenario since yung sa daughter in a way normal naman talaga na while on D mag accelerate kahit hindi apakan.

Glen baka mahilig manood ng tv patrol driver mo? hehe

Here's the complete story-- According to my driver, when he was going to moved the car, naka depress cya sa brakes at naka handbrake.. Nung ilalagay na nya sa reverse.. Bigla daw nag rev. Up to 2k rpm... While naka brake pa cya at naka handbrake... Then he shift it immediately back to park.. Tapos while on park mode-- inapakan nya ulit yung gas ng paulit ulit to check kung back to normal na.. Nung napansin nya back to normal na.. Inatras na nya ulit yung sasakyan.. As if Walang nangyari...

Sa daugther ko naman.... There was a time daw she let go of the gas na daw.. Pero nag aaccelerate pa din... Pero hindi naman super accelerate... Normal accelerate parang nakaapak ka pa sa gas.. It happened daw only once.. And hindi naman daw na nya pinansin..

To be sure nalang... Pa tow nalang, pa check... Then let's see kung nagkakamali ba sila or what...

are these incidents same day? or separate times? sabi mo kasi kanina twice nangyari a few hours ago? since this is the complete story, i assume once lang nangyari yun sa driver mo and once rin lang the other time sa daughter? how long time between incidents from your driver and daughter?

with your driver, did this happen during cold start? or engine was already warmed up? asking this is because cars during cold start depending on the current condition umaakyat talaga ang rev, sometimes mas mataas pa than 2k on some of my other cars, then it normalizes after a few seconds. from engine start up how long before he moved it from park to reverse? pwede kasi kaka start lang ng cold engine shift to reverse agad and kala nya because of shifting to reverse kaya tumaas rev, but in actuality its the engine trying to normalize since cold start nga.

with your daughter, its a bit vague, what is normal and super apak sa gas to her and from yours? what speed was she driving? what speed did it become when she let go of the gas? same with what was the rev? for how long? sa hi way? going down hill? lots of possibilities kasi.

either way, i would call my driver and daughter, using another car to reenact exactly the scenario and what steps they were doing, so you have more info, details, and other important facts on what really happened.

sadly, dahil sa sensationalized yun SUA sa montero, pati nalang sa ibang auto konting parang SUA, praning na agad

This is the same as what sometimes happens to my Mazda 2. Kapag nag-brake ka bigla, bigla din tataas yung RPM na parang bigla nag-downshift or from a complete stop, put it on D, give the throttle a light tap and it jerks forward at high RPM, then goes down as suddenly as it goes up. I think its solvable with an ECU FW update.

Yung complete story na nilagay ko ayun ang accurate... Yung same day nagkamali ako, I presume Lang na same day, kaya ayun ang immediate na kwento sakin.. hindi pala same day... nung tinanong ko na mabuti Anak ko... Now I'm asking pa yung isa pang gumagamit ng m3.. Cya kasi ang mas madalas mag drive sa Anak ko...

Ayun din nga ang NASA isip ko na baka nga malamig pa yung engine... Kaya Umakyat sa 2k rpm...

Re. Sa daugther ko, I'll ask her later, at lahat naman yan would be cleared.. And clarified--- At ihaharAp ko sa Mazda quezon ave. lahat ng drivers ng M3....

Renactment... Most probably, Ganyan ang Gagawin namin sa Mazda...

I myself want this to be clarified... At Anak kung babae ang gumagamit ng m3...

[glenn manikis]

Balongbalaong-- if you are near the area of mindanao ave. And quirino highway you can interview my driver and daugther... Madalas Nandun Lang sila sa warehouse namin between 9-5pm.. Mon-sat.

Oo nga pala.. Kanina pala sinubukan ko start.. Hindi naman nag hihirev... Malamig pa din ang engine...

Right foot gamit nya... Heel and toe movement daw... Nung nilagay daw nya sa reverse... Kumadyot pa...
And Pag lagay daw nya sa park dun nya napansin NASA 2k rpm...

[travajante]

I've a feeling that everything is well. Everyone just needs to be reintroduced, reacquainted properly to the new kid in the garage....to its habits & tendencies.

[justdiy]

For the daughter- I think it's because it downshifts.

For the driver-cold start, without warming up, drove immediately with high rpms.

I agree with Travs, educate them on how our cars operate.

But it will be best if you drive it yourself a couple of days, Sir Glenn. Update us on this matter...

[justdiy]

I remembered when I drove home from my friend's place late at night. I was so sleepy that time, I almost hit the neighbor's car parked outside when I maneuvered because I stepped on the gas instead of the brakes.

I almost got a heart attack on the first week of ownership.

[travajante]

But it will be best if you drive it yourself a couple of days, Sir Glenn.

^This. Prior to turning over any car to anyone, I'd always do what justdiy advised. Endorsement of expectations, driving/maintenance instructions, & browsing thru the manual are key to a happy, hitch-free Mown3rship, sir.
