Got the cleaner today and also the Tutle Wax paste to put on after. I had been using the Ice liquid but I want something a little thicker for the winter. Any tips on how to use the compound? I am going to do a good complete was of the car prior, let it dry, then put on the compound. I am...

Machine buffed meaning a wax pad that goes onto a drill or one of the automatic orbital sander looking things with the sponge pad attachment? Which Meguairs Ultimate product do you use for the surface rust spots? I am looking at the stock now and the whole Ultimate name is a line of products...

Do cleaning waxes need anything special for them to work? I have only used synthetic sealant and never really used a good old compound wax. Do I need a special type that will buff out rust or anything like you listed help it? Do I need to prep the rust spots at all before waxing?

Touring 2010. Still pretty new car, only 20,000 miles on it which was just passed in the past week. The paint job is having a hard time dealing with the rocks and stones that are thrown around NJ highways from all of the trucks, rust is starting to show up on some of the deeper pits on the...

It's working as it should. Read more info on it here: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123789825-quot-Passenger-airbag-off-quot-light-when-wife-is-in-seat-(2010-Touring)&highlight=airbag (I asked the same thing as you, more responses there)

I see a bunch of different types of those two brands. Which one is the one to get? http://www.prolineracks.com/roof-rack-railing-crossbars.html

No auto for me on my Touring model. I guess Mazda wants only the upper class who buys the Grand Touring to be able to relax and not turn on their lights. Those of us who have the poor man's model need to turn on our own lights. Separating the haves and have nots. Besides all that.. DRL are...

What are the most recommended cross rails for the factory racks? Say like the Parads Spec-Xs of forum suggested cross rails?

So is someone going to post me a link to a secret code to get the lights to auto switch on in the dark? Having to turn the dial to on every day just to even get day time running lamps is something cars did away with a decade ago. I thought day time running lamps were standard in everything for...

Yup, did the whole thing and it works beautifully. Now I go around telling people I hacked my car with secret codes. They are all impressed.

So I was wrong about the year of my car, it's a 2010. Forgot that. Looked in the manual again in the door and lock section, nothing at all about being able to program it with the secret codes.

Yeah, looked through the whole book for door and lock info. Found nothing. Any idea what section it would be hidden under?

Wow. Awesome. I wonder what other secret features it has that Mazda didn't tell me about.

PCV values should be a normal part of any car's maintenance schedule, it never is, but it should be. It's never listed in the books that come with cars because most people never care about PCV valves and have never even heard of a PCV valve. If you plan on keeping the car for a long time, as...

(2010) It's a shame the doors dont auto lock I still forget to lock the doors after having the car for a year.. every other car I have driven in the past many years locks them automatically once you go into drive and start to pull forward. Just a minor gripe, I like the thing so much I dont...

We have the Weathertech custom fitted front mats in our 2011. They cost a bundle but are better than any floor liner I have used before. Having them fit exactly into your car is awesome, plus they are of super high quality, I dont see the wearing out for a long time.. if ever.

What are these Mazda 3 i Sport "Type R" super basic models the dealers tried to sell? So at two different dealers today in the NJ/PA area after getting an out the door price on the phone the salesperson said in person that the quoted price was actually for a 3i with the R inventory code which...

The stock tires on the Mazda3 got hit by nails on the highway so I want to replace them with a real quality all season tire. Is there a best bet that people around these parts recommend when looking to replace all four tires? Right now I just have the cheapest thing from STS to replace the...

Three! I want to survive getting through one first! And even that seems like a whole lot more to me than the zero I currently have. :)

Wow, how terrible. The whole reason we bought this car was for an upcoming baby. I didn't know anything about car seat hookups back then, I just figured that all new cars would have the latest safety standards in them. Oops.
