    Most egregious BS peddled by Dealer's service department

    So my car went in at the weekend and had 3 "PQIs" applied. These are not recalls but more advice to dealers. So first they flushed the system with a citric solvent apparently this is to resolve a problem on the CX5 but some of the first models of the 3 also needed it (I was told my VIN number...

    Most egregious BS peddled by Dealer's service department

    Anymore details on the reprogram for the climate control? I have been arguing back and forth that mine has an issue since I bought the car in June. I am in the UK and Mazda UK are stupid cock wombles. They asked for temperatures of all the vents which were hotter than the sun itself and they...

    So my car had the updates installed on a Saturday it seems to have been a new update for active sense that also fixes a few other minor issues. I also got a print out to go with the manual though tbh skimming through it I couldn't see anything that stood out as different. On a side note my car...

    Android Auto Issues

    I doubt its anything to do with mazda prefering carplay. I have just tested the touched screen with android auto enabled and it works for me. In regards to the day and night you may need to switch this on, just checked and the options are "Car-Controlled, Phone Controlled, Day, Night.

    My car is going in Saturday for this recall work and one with the clutch causing a stall. In regards to the emergency breaking system, I have had my car do an emergency stop a couple of times flashing up BRAKE on the hud even when nothing is in front I just took it as being overly sensitive to...

    who can fix the intermittent auto lock problem?

    I have no hope in it being fixed. A colleague he has an MX5 from 2015 and when I mentioned my intermittent auto lock failing on my mazda 3 (and unlocking) she said yeah shes always had those issues. My Renault I bought in 2006 has keyless lock and it worked so much better than the mazda.

    Android Auto + Speed Sign warning.

    If using google for your navigation instead of the inbuilt one you loose the feature for the car to display road signs, in addition to this the car will constantly warn you that you are exceeded the speed limit as it is no longer reading the limit of the roads. This would almost suggest that...

    intermittent door locking on 2019 Mazda 3

    ... thats the whole idea, the car is supposed to auto lock on no detection of the key, that is how is should work as is stated in the owner manual. It would be stupid if it only locked on detection of the key which becomes pretty moot. p.s I changed the key in the fob but I shouldnt have...

    Most adorable things discovered on my 2019 Mazda 3

    Sadly I didn't get the Bose sound, it was in the test model I drove but that one was another 5 grand so hard to justify (not just speakers in the 5 grand upgrade). I have the 8 speaker system vs the Bose 12 speakers. The image below is the Speaker locations for the Bose setup. Not really...

    list of most annoying issues on my 2019 Mazda 3

    1. The "Parking Break" which should correctly be engaged when not driving should auto come off after ignition when settings off ... provided you also have your seat belt on. If you want to drive without your seat belt you need to put your foot on the break before starting. Don't understand...

    Weird issues with 2019 Mazda 3

    I was hearing a metal clunking sound, found out it was just the poorly secured (or not secured at all) tow bars. For some reason my car came with 3 of them and these bang around when driving. I have only used the AC a bit, but haven't noticed any noise, I have more noticed a burning smell...

    intermittent door locking on 2019 Mazda 3

    I mentioned this to my dealer just last week. I upgraded from a 13 year old car that had keyless exit which is one reason I choice mazda. I didn't have to hang around my car waiting for beeps, I just shut the door and walked off. I have noticed on a few occasions I walk off and it doesn't...

    Issues I didn't expect from the new 2019 Mazda3

    Looking this morning at the energy flow animation. It's not a bug, its just cheaply made animation probably to save on processing power. Why animate a complete wheel rotation when you can just cycle between static images. It's not as if you are sat staring at it your entire journey.
