Re: CX3 Gt Sport Armrest!!

Wait until you find out it doesn't Auto Lock when driven away Mazda are the only manufacturer to say no one wants this option They say no one wants it in the UK when I queried it. It is on the US spec vehicles ! I agree with Mazda, can't see the point in it, there are things I would much rather have.

Re: Small rattle from MZD Connect

The most common "small rattle" that can seem to come from anywhere is actually when something is put in the sunglasses holder. Start by emptying this. Other than that the only rattle I have is when the passenger seat belt isn't in use and the clip knocks against the body trim, try driving ...

Re: Finally arrived

Good choice of colour. My dealer told me it is Ceramic White and not Ceramic Silver. Same option colour of the new MX5. Be interested in how other owners of same colour believe theirs is White or Silver. Tell your dealer he's wrong, it's Ceramic Metallic or just Ceramic - not white or silver (even ...

Re: Front facing cameras on the Sports Nav

From anchorman's PDF, it looks like the lane departure warning hardware is used for the highbeen control, though the software would be more complex. It may well be that the highbeam control needs a more powerful CPU module as it is a far more complex task. If this is the case I would assume the mor...

Re: Recall

Re: AirCon Issues

Hi all, for those who are having air con problems above, can you indicate the year and model of CX 3 affected? I note some of you are new members but that is not to say your car is a 2017 model. I am looking to buy a 2nd hand CX3 but I understand the air con issues were resolved July 2016 onwards? ...

Same thing with Perry's Portsmouth; also doing the control knobs (and circuitry) which may explain why I never believed it was a true Climate Control system!
