    Mazda Skyactiv

    Dear All, Is there any one using the new Mazda Skyactiv car and if so what is your experience with it in terms of performance (power vs fuel economy)? Agent claims that it is very good in gas mileage.
  2. I suspect this is a vacuum related problem. There are two vacuum modulator close to the oil filter. When these are blocked you feel very low the engine pulling power. If the service station tried to remove the filter without proper tools they can easily damage the wiring or the rubber hoses attached to the vacuum modulators. The two vacuum modulators control the EGR and the turbo. The Kyron does not respond to the normal scanners for some reason.
  3. did you check the brake oil level in the resrvoir?
  4. I had a similar problem in my earlier FB13. It unlocked automatically while driving - it has speed sensed auto lock - and lock back immediately. I figured it out that the sensor in the main door was rusted, so was not making good contact. Probably the central locking system sees it as if the main door was unlocked manually, so was commanding the other door to unlock. I suggest that you check the lock sensor in your driver side front door.
  5. It is a great channel, but bit expensive, Do we have any other option?
  6. if there is a big gap (do not know the original spec, lets say above 5mm) between the bumper and the rear light assembly then I think you can adjust it by adjusting the bumper holding tabs below the lights. You will have to remove the bumper and the two lights and bend the tabs upwards a bit. http://www.mazdaspd.com/manual_files/09-10.pdf
  7. yes please share it. I got the maps working, but cannotsee any of the road names, so I cannot search or get the directions working. thanks.
  8. Stiker on the door pillar which gives you the engine number ect has a box for the car's grade.
  9. I had one before. But it is a Familia RS 1.5 VVT (YOM 2000). 4 speed tiptronic. 14" wheels.
  10. check the ATF oil since you have recently changed it. It may be not the correct oil, or the filter was not cleaned or not enough oild is filled. I cannot think of an engine issue.
  11. There is a 3M distributor at Delkanda Plaza Delkanda. I once bought it (part no 06384), 800 rupees as I remember. Call the 3M agents they will give you the distributor contacts.
  12. I once had a sidewall damaged. It was vulcanized by at a small tyre shop near Hidaramani factory Maharagama. I do not know if it is a good idea if you drive fast or carry heavy loads.
