All New 2017 Mazda 3

It protects your car paint sir, making it last longer. Ceramic coating, if you're from metro manila, can be provided by Technical Details. I believe prices starts at 7k?

I'll try to look into more waxing options. Thanks!

[mikes]

Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax is easy to apply. Just spray it, wipe and buff with mircofiber towel. It will only take about 30 mins. It's a good activity for a routine inspection of your car's paint condition. For a longer duration of wax protection, go for Collinite or Meguiar's liquid wax.

Will do. I still have to check out all the products you suggested at Blade. Will buy some more microfiber towels and will stop using the chamois. Maybe this weekend! =)

Found these mud guard set from Lamson but not sure whether these are compatible with the 2017/18 M3 hatchback:

Accessories for Mazda 3 214 - Lamson Digital Electronics | Facebook

Unfortunately these China made mud guard set doesn't fit with 2017 M3. Although the front guard screw holes can be aligned with those under the fender, the sides won't align nicely. The rear guards will not align nicely also.

So this 1300php mud guard set is unusable for the 2017 M3 hatchback (I guess for the 4 door as well). Hopefully I may be able to sell these at OLX to recover my expenses.

Im also selling mine for dirt cheap for 600php. I think it fits best in 2014-16 models

I have finally traced where the brake pedal noise is coming from. It looks like a vacuum diaphragm brake booster:

So is that a good thing or a bad thing? Mine still makes that pedal noise but braking seems normal.

I don't know if it's an indication of a problem. Need to have it checked at the casa next week just to be sure.

Is autoexe more on aesthetics or performance parts?

Hmmmmm....they're more meant for the bored, perhaps? They can be either or both. Want or need? That's a matter of perspective. Agree, good sir?[emoji16]

Both agreed!

Looking at it, perhaps adding a bush on that pin w/ play should shut it up.

If this is an unusual noise perhaps a warranty replacement would be the best option for now.

Agree, but what if all were made w/ play? Unusual as it may be, but my heel-pivot braking habit has never bothered me w/ that noise. It's there, I know, coz if I don't use that default habit, I can hear what you're saying.

I also use heel-pivot braking and surprisingly it's only with the new M3 that I encountered this obvious noise. Compared to an old 2007 M3 or even with other sedans I've driven since I learned how to drive, the noise produced by the newer M3 is so obvious.

Compare both pedal mechanisms...I won't be surprised if our gen3 has thinner sheetmetal like the shell. They'll tell you 'lightening' will have its price.[emoji12]
What's the stats on suckahs born every minute now? Haha.
Seriously, that's a good hunt down. Please keep us posted on the approach your dealership takes. Thanks!
