Re: front nose mask [mazdrvr] by stallionre

I need the front mask because of where I live, there are many trucks that have small rocks fly out from under them. I live where three main freeways meet up for the state of CA. I have seen cars without the mask and there brand new cars are already all chipped up and they look very bad.
 
I dont take mine off when I wash my car, only to wax it. I dont drive this car much, therefore, I wash it once a month.

I know what you mean by the small rocks... I live in NV. where there is endless construction & trucks . Oh yeah, also another great thing (not) is the dust, when the wind picks up; especially recently w/ all the winds we've been getting! A car wash has been lasting about 2 days at most.
Thanks, I think I will be getting the mask.

You can get the factory installed cruise control installed on your 3i. I did it to mine ('06 Mazda 3i with manual transmission). All you need to get is the brake switch for cars with cruise and the cruise control switches for the steering wheel. You can install it yourself, switching out the brake switch is easy(well, space is kind of tight). Changing out the switches on the steering wheel requires taking off the airbag. I had the dealer do this step for me, I was just too scared. But it all works fine, I even have the cruise control lights light up in the instrument panel.

Does the airbag work?

Taking an airbag out isnt a big deal (Everyone listen to this part) for a TRAINED PROFESSIONAL!!! I have been certified in airbag replacement and i know full well i would not want to mess with one if i didnt know what it could do. NEVER take out an airbag if you dont have the know how. It seems easy and looks easy. Problem is the something even as small as static electricity can set on off when not hooked up to the car.

Bought my mazda3s in Jan. and have not been able to use the navigation system while driving.....I know this is for safety reasons......but if I'm low on gas on the highway....pulling to the shoulder to search for a gas station on the nav. system makes no sense.....anyone know how to override this feature......

Don't think it's possible.

I'm sure it's possible-- it seems tied to the speedometer, and it seems to allow you to scroll around at speeds up to amount 5 mph. How to disable it though is a tougher question. The easy fix for finding gas stations though is to enter the settings menu and have it show POI's while you drive. You can select what type of POIs you want to see. They will only show though while you are zoomed in fairly close.

Feedback from 3 owners re: A/C by bricknord

Hello all, getting ready to graduate after going back to college, and thinking of a new car in the near future. The Mazda 3 is at the top of the short list being considered. I noticed on the website of, shall we say, a leading Consumer magazine you might have heard of, that there is feedback on the 3 from a fair number of owners who routinely complain the the A/C is weak and inadequate. Can folks here who own one and live in a hot climate ( I live in Kansas City with 100 degree summer days ) give me some feedback on whether this is a problem with the car? I am one of those few people who is not a big hot weather fan and does not mind cold, so I'd rather be too cold than too hot, so if anything I want an A/C unit that can keep up with the heat, not one that can barely keep the cabin tolerable on a hot sunny day. Thoughts on this much appreciated. Thanks! Matt
