Re: New member with a million questions..... at least!

Definitely try the different seats. I test drove an older model(SEL?) with cloth seats and I didn't think the lumber support was very good. I then sat in a Sport Nav with stone leather and they were MUCH better. The dealer said that all the Sport Nav seats were the same but with different covers. Wh...

Re: New member with a million questions..... at least!

The stone leather seats are way better than the standard half leather ones as they are more supportive especially in the lumbar region of your back.

If you don't need AWD then I'd stick with the 120 for better fuel economy and larger fuel tank as even the big one is tiny.

Re: Are you worried about Keyless Car Theft

Checking the official list, the CX3 doesn’t seem to be on it, unless the latest version has true keyless entry i.e. it automatically unlocks when you walk up to the car with the key in your pocket without pressing any buttons. Nothing to see here methinks......🤔 I've disabled my auto-locking to sto...

Re: What updates for the New 2019 CX3 would you like.

The brake lights does not go out, when you take your foot off the brake when i-stop has activated, and auto-hold is engaged. :idea: Correct, I've just tried it. I always thought they went out but I was wrong. Thank you Mazda for allowing us to dazzle the driver behind :roll: . Looks like it's back ...

Re: What updates for the New 2019 CX3 would you like.

In over 50 years driving I have had two accidents, and in both cases my car was hit from behind whilst in stationary traffic. I do not want to be a victim a third time, so when I see a red light or other obstruction ahead I slow down gradually, forcing the drivers behind me to do the same. Once sta...

Re: What updates for the New 2019 CX3 would you like.

There is a button behind the switch that you press when you have started the engine and from then on the brake is actuated by the pressure on the foot brake and released by the accelerator. Auto Hold............It takes some getting used to but I use it all the time now. Just dab the brake when you...

Re: FFC

… not noticed the headlamps turning either, I'll have to check them some time 8-) . If you have the Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) that adjusts the LED headlights left or right in conjunction with the operation of the steering wheel, the feature may be switched off. You can switch the feature...

Re: FFC

It appears that your adaptive headlights are functioning as they turn towards the corner. However the adaptive feature that moves the beam away from oncoming traffic was only included with the safety pack option. Are you sure your car has the optional safety pack? I've not got the safety pack but I...
