Mistakes were made but no deliberate cheating like the Dieselgate VW scandal.
Mazda, Suzuki Admit to Cheating on Emissions and Fuel Economy Testing - The Drive
Update, August 9th, 2018: Mazda has provided The Drive with the following statement regarding the issue:
"Following a request made by Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT), issued to Japanese automakers on July 9 2018 after the discovery of fraudulent testing practices at other companies, Mazda Motor Corporation submitted a report to MLIT on the results of an investigation into its sample testing of fuel economy and emissions during final vehicle inspections.
The investigation covered JC081 and WLTC2 testing modes and the key findings of the report are:
1. No improper alteration or falsification of test data in either mode.
2. Test data containing speed trace errors* was found in 72 cases out of 1,472 vehicles tested under the JC08 mode. The company has identified two reasons for these errors. Firstly, the system was not set up to automatically invalidate results when a speed trace error occurred. Secondly, test procedures left the determination of speed trace errors up to each individual inspector.
3. All test data has been re-examined and the results show there was no effect on specification fuel economy and emission figures. No such cases were found in WLTC mode testing.
Mazda has decided to take the following steps to prevent a reoccurrence:
• The system will be updated to automatically treat test results as invalid in the event of a speed trace error.
• Mazda has increased the number of employees who check inspection data, including speed trace errors.
Mazda accepts that errors were made on a small number of tests and the situation was identified quickly and steps have been put in place to avoid it happening in the future."
Nope he does not have a physical store, but you can have it shipped, or meet him in his condo in E.Rod. Re the speakers, yes big difference yung center speaker since mine is only a 1.5 variant which does not have a center speaker (see the dummy speaker in the pic). Only the TOTL variant has the center speaker IIRC.
