Lhk657 2nd Gear May 26, 2020 Share May 26, 2020 Any bros changed their cabin light to led ones? When the lights switch is of there seems to be a mild light when in accessory mode or when engine is on. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidklt 6th Gear May 27, 2020 Share May 27, 2020 (edited) Saw some recent renders of the next version on both Chinese and German social media. The sketches are quite convincing. Like the quad exhaust though. Edited May 27, 2020 by Davidklt 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking on battery: I read from the past posts that the stock batt usually last about 18 months. If for e.g. the i-Stop amber light (not green) appeared on Sat (16 May), and it had not appeared in the past few days when the car was driven, do I need to be concerned with the batt? Thanks. If possible, standby a battery jump starter in your car.just in case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
retiredman 1st Gear May 31, 2020 Share May 31, 2020 I intend to replace the tyres for my 2-year old Mazda 6 standard. Would like to seek advice whether to replace them at Mazda service centre using the complimentary service vouchers or at a workshop outside. Would like to know if the cost saving is substantial by going to a outside workshop, and what tyre brand is good for less noise. Also which are the workshops that you have good experience with.

Thanks I replaced my tyres about 7 months ago with Michelin Primacy 4 (225/55R17 101W XL). It has a very good tyre noise rating. Check out EU tyre ratings on the manufacturer's European websites for fuel efficiency, wet grip and noise. Another very good choice is Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 (225/55R17 101W XL); but this was not available in Singapore when I asked. Its EU label rating is the same as the Michelin. Note that the tyre ratings are specific to the tyre size and you should check these before deciding. Also, check the tyre's year of manufacture. If more than 1 year old, ask for more discount.

teomingern 6th Gear June 3, 2020 Share June 3, 2020 I think I would prefer to buy tires which are made this year... rather ask for more discount for tires manufactured over a year ago... but of course if you must have that tire brand then it's worth getting a hefty discount cos the tire lifespan is counting down on the shelf... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Vouchers - if I am you, between tyres and servicing, I will use them for servicing @Mazda. For all the debates and discussions I have read, within warranty period, I reckon it is better to go back to AD for servicing. Tyres - get it outside. I believe will be significantly cheaper. Using battery as an example, I had a significant cost save changing it outside. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Hey, Can get it done for <=$180. I got it changed at workshop, so no transport fees involved etc.. You google, and there are loads of options. Another chap in this thread gave a good summary of the required battery specs, so you may like to check that post out. I am not sure if it is worth fretting over whether it is Korean made, Europe made, Taiwan made or China made.

Davin Neutral Newbie June 8, 2020 Share June 8, 2020 Hi Mazda 6 owners, I have changed the 2019 Mazda 6 key fob battery with Maxell CR2025 lithium battery and somehow it can’t work. I can’t unlock the car doors and boots with this new battery. When I press any button on the key fob, there is red blinking light so I assume battery is working fine. Is battery brand an issue? The existing one is from Panasonic. Thanks in advance for any valuable feedbacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lhk657 2nd Gear June 13, 2020 Share June 13, 2020 Dear all, Need help. I recieved a sms with a link to download and update my free map as it is going to expire in July. Should i wait for next servicing or do it myself. When it expires, will it still work? Lastly, to proceed a login account is needed. Do we need to register a new one the first time? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
