All New 2017 Mazda 3

[jojopad]

Probably they'll offer it next year?

What makes Mazda’s announcement at the Big Apple special is that Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will be made available as a software update on models equipped with the Mazda Connect infotainment system. It will be made available as a “Genuine Mazda Accessory retrofit” starting in the third quarter of 2018 initially in the US and Canada with other markets to follow soon after.

We have reached out to Mazda Philippines if this piece of good news is applicable to our vehicles. We’ll update this story once we get confirmation from them.

Hi Guys, new to this thread. Got my Mazda 3 Sedan around 3 weeks ago. May I know your take on Mazda Greenhills? Sa kanila ko kasi binili yun sasakyan and napansin ko dun sa Service Booklet, meron na kaagad pirma yun mga PMS ko until the end of my Yojin 3. Naka indicate na dun na through Mazda Greenhills ako. Ganon din ba experience niyo? Also any review with their after sales support. Salamat!

Don't worry, yojin is good nationwide.[emoji4]

Speaking of...

I had my 6-month PMS just last week. I noticed the only major "replacement" was for engine oil and engine oil filter...

P.S. Feels good to be posting again!

Wow, that's somewhat dodgy. You should be able to avail the yojin service at any branch. For warranty claims like battery replacement or other defective parts, your dealer will be the only one who can cover that afaik. I highly suggest that you verify with another branch if you can avail the yojin service at their branch despite those signed pms stubs from your service booklet.

My service booklet remained unsigned after my 1000km service from dealer. I inquired with another dealer branch if I can have my M3 scheduled for the first 6 mos pms and they said that should be fine.

Sadya bang mataas ang stock ride height ng 2018 models? Almost 5 inches ang wheel gap sa likod?

Some additional comments:

Upon release of my M3 last January, the service manager from the dealership clearly explained to me that I can avail the yojin pms at any branch. You could perhaps clarify with your dealership if chosing a different Mazda dealership is applicable (which should be) despite that they have already signed the pms stubs from the service booklet. If not then this is something that you need to bring up to Bermaz Auto Philippines, the exclusive distributor of Mazda here in PH.

anyone replaced 16" to 18"? how is it? but I'm panning to replace mine just with 17" as I worry about performance issues w/ only 1.5L

will it void the warranty also? tia

Many have. The 1.5 & 2.0 share the same suspension part numbers, there shouldn't be any issue. Those who are opting for lighter aftermarket wheels, stay closest to stock width & offset to avoid claim troubles. The lighter the unsprung rotational mass, the better, performance/ride/brake-wise.
When in doubt, consult your dealership on warranty stand & guidelines.

Hi sir Travs, with the talk about upgrading the wheels, should i upgrade, say, to 18s, will I still be able to use the stock spare?

Have you folks noticed that the visors of the Mazda3 can't be extended? But from this review the visors of the 2018 M3 can be extended.

I use the visor a lot because of my early morning drive southbound. Swinging the visor to the door window is quite an annoyance because I need to dock my head a little just so it won't get hit by the visor.
