2015 Mazda 2

Diskbrakes are self-adjusting, so gaps between disk and pads (and hence caliper piston) are millimeter thin.

Have the dealership check the shims if you've clunking. Here's the excerpt from that TSB, Yatta sir...
Rattle Or Clunk Noise:
• If a rattle or clunk noise is present, replace the brake pad shims/mounting hardware or replace the pads after
inspecting the fit of all parts and determining the cause of the excessive clearance.
When performing a repair requiring refinishing or replacement of the brake pads, lightly sand (use grit #80) the
brake rotors to remove old pad material. In most cases, brake rotor replacement is not necessary to remedy a
brake noise condition.
NOTE:
• Apply locally sourced CRC Disc Brake Quiet (P/N 05016) to the pad backing plates before each of
the above repairs.
• Do not use grinding wheels or air power tools.

If its the shims, then the pads should be rattling around even when not braking. Especially in an uneven road. My friends old but track ready Lancer had a tok sound during braking, later traced to a flexing firewall. It can flex to as much as an inch during heavy braking. Corrected with an L-brace between the brakemaster and the strut tower.

Every huntdown should start from the symptom & by elimination. It could be clearances, defective end links, loose suspension fasteners???? In this case, the clunk is presumed not to be from hard braking....that can't be caused by excessive flexural stresses. Our Sky chassis is designed stiffer even though it shaved weight. Either of us can be right or both wrong, Yatta sir....but I would start w/ the free yojin huntdown before investing in braces that might end up more bling than necessity. My humble 2cents are just shared here voluntarily in the hope of helping. I could be wrong & I don't mind rejection, really.

Hello guys. I noticed that the recommended tire air pressure for front is higher than for rear, if there are 3 passengers. Is that correct? Normally my m2 carries just me? What do you think is the recommended tire pressure for my case? Thanks!

I don't condone racing or doing time trials on a public road. I'll tell you when I get the chance to try it on a private track. A lot of cars can do 160+km/h, even the mini-cars, but the question is how long will it take them to reach that speed? Mas magandang basehan yung "how quick can it get to that speed?" and not "how fast can it go?".

not that I promote racing sir, alot of reviews and forum posts already answered how quick the m2 accelerates. That's why d only issue as to speed really is d max speed, given d fact that m2 has a meager 108 ps. anyways, tnx for the reply.

There are 2 suggestions for tire pressures, choose the one with the least passengers, the just adjust when you have more. But generally the default should suffice for most, unless long distance ang biyahe mo. Though I generally ride with tire pressures 1-2 psi lower than recommended for riding comfort.

BTW my SA called, pwede ko na daw makuha rebate ko.

Yep, email sir travs for plate relocators. Not sure though if the relocators for m2 are already available.

For deep dish, maybe sir Louie Anson Ng of Lamson Electronics can help you. ☺
