    I believe this is always ON and you only turn it OFF when you are absolutely sure that you can anticipate the action in such a way that you have an excellent control of the car.

    Try to turn it off and on and see what will happen. The next time you start the engine, it should be ON by default. For the mean time, let us wait for our experts' advice.

    Are you sure you didn't press on the traction control off button by accident?

    Try pressing on the traction control off button multiple times. If the indicator light remains on, that means the traction control is not activated and could mean something else, probably a faulty button or there's something wrong with the traction control.

    Yep. Weird. Have it thoroughly checked. It could be a faulty wiring. Or something is messing with it.

    Watch this excellent explanation by Engineering Explained on E10 fuel's effect on the car's engine.

    For old cars (probably those made before E10 became mandatory) there may be some adverse effects with the fuel distribution system but for modern cars no serious concern.

    Spray some WD4O and use pliers if they still won't come off. If the caps get gnarled up, I just ask for one at my nearest vulcanizing shop.

    2019 Mazda3 will look almost the same as the current gen but with a SkyActiv-X engine?

    The next 3 might look very similar to the Mazda Kai concept.

    No, sir jojopad. They are only testing the engine with current body of mz3.
    Still hiding the design for the next gen mz3

    Engineering Explained latest video convinced me to use my M3's start/stop (aka i-Stop) system as much as possible.
