I'm A new owner of A 2014 Mazda 3 2.5. Many of us new owners of the Mazda 3's in the cold climate area are experiencing Significant lower than EPA gas Mileage. My question is for those who have owned the Mazda 6's from the summer and now are in the cold parts of the country for the winter...

After A little research I found out that Nitrogen makes little difference. I'm going to fill mine with air as they begin to leak. Works better for NASCAR than consumer car.

My tires came with nitrogen valve stem caps that had the N2 on top. If you have Nitrogen in your tires it should not change enoungh to trip the TPMS. They could just be filling them with air and advertising nitrogem filled tires. Who knows but my TPMS sensor has not triped.

Honda fit Hybrid has not been released yet, so real world results are not known. New cars are often tweaked and tuned to meet market demands. This is were the real millage changes are. 85 MPG was a number that Honda posted for the Honda Fit. If we had A Geo Metro today with all the new Engine...

The new Honda Fit hybrid was being tested at 85 MPG. It may be worth the waiting for. If they decide to increase it's power it could be significantly less, depends on how the feel about marketing it in the USA. The Toyota Yaris was getting 68 MPG overseas but droped to something like 40 after...

Auto I hope that is all the new car break-in. I have found a few people around with my same problem. Will wait until 3000 miles and then ask to get it checked out.

In cold weather this car sucks gas. I always get above EPA with my driving style in other cars. But now I'm extremely disappointed. Current best all HWY non-stop was 32.8 driving on flat land below speed limit for a full tank nonstop. I have the 2.5 with I-loop rated at 39. The performance...

It is not about Race!!! But rather about Happy, Motivated people that care. I'm sure North Korea death camp Laborers would not care about the reliability of the products they produce. I'm not trying to offend anyone. It is true that Honda and Toyota do make cars in Mexico. But according to...

At 5'8" the mazda 3 fits like a glove no problems with the knees.

I have to think I have drove A variety of different cars. My car takes about double the warm up time than I'm used to. Maybe Mazda has changed the thermostats on some models. I do find it odd that some people do not notice a longer than average warm up time.

The heat is a little on the low side, and the car takes A bit to warm up. I'm guesing it might be due to the high compression and using 87 octane gas. Mazda might be keeping the car cooler to reduce knocking. It seems to work well on longer trips but I do freeze my ass off on short trips.

I ordered my Weathertech front and rears yesterday. Will post picks when I get them.

Wow great financing offer good luck.

It is still just my opinion, based on what I have seen. It could be the most awsome Mazda ever made. "the little train that could" I would go with the safe bet on this one, but that is me. How many of you would install a Autozone fuel pump in your car?

As my CFC bulbs go out I replace them with LED's. I use an 18 seer HEAT PUMP for my home. I use compost bins to heat my garage. And grow many of my own foods. Hope to get A green house soon so i can garden all winter long. If solar panels get better I will jump on that to. A cat does little...

As A CNC guy that has setup and repaired just about every CNC type of machine made. I will tell you that it makes a difference with employees caring about there work. There was obviously more repairs made to CNC machines in the poorly paid factories than with other locations. When they run a...

I'm sure all Automotive groups were better than what I have seen. Not having very good laws to protect workers is sad. The Mazda plant could be great in Mexico I just have to think why did they move the plant to Mexico? There had to be some kind of cuts, wages and safety would be first. Some...

I have worked in Mexico, China and Japan setting up, or repairing CNC machines. I will never go back to China or Mexico. Not a safe place to be, If you work in a crummy, unsafe, low paid factory how would you feel about producing A great product. In Mexico they wanted me to setup the machines...

The more I think about it. I think we are feeling the difference of the high compression engine. I did not notice it much until I read it here. I drove several 5.0 mustangs in the past with high compression setups and you can feel the drag of the motor when decelerating. Have you ever started...

It is not to uncommon for a 1991 Honda accord to get to 30 MPG with several modifications. You add that to a custom Eco tune + my hyper fuel er driving and you get 38 MPG. List of mods: Heads ported and polished "gasket matched" The list of of modification just to the heads was almost a full...
