Wondering if really can feel the different for the drop of 1km/L by spec from the pre-FL. you can never gauge and compare it accurately this way as every driver and route and rdriving style is different.... the most accurate(as with minimal variables to minimize data corruption) if the same driver drive both models for a period of time on the same route... even for my case, im the only driver and route is quite standard everyday, use the same fuel grade, from tank to tank already can have 1km/L variation... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The standard has orange halogen DRL together with LED headlight while executive is full LED angel eye style Is it a plug and play solution or are the wire jacks all different requiring extra wires or additional modifications? Hi, I've checked with an aftermarket shop. Advised cannot change whole head lamp unit as the "socket" (dunno what that refers to) is different. I wonder whether the in-car light switches are different too? However it's possible to change the daytime yellow halogen bulb to white LED. Need to ensure the LED bulb is dimmable since different brightness level is required for daytime and when head lamp is ON. No stock for this LED bulb at this moment. I'll check again after car collection. No date for me yet. Hope this helps. Do share if you know any shop to change this bulb. Cheers! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I do not jam brake at junction or slow traffic to risk hitting car in front and my own cars. It simply does not make sense or risky or even not responsible to make recommendation play around with how to control braking to circumvent this SS activation. Cheers. Richard Hi Richard, the mazda istop is different from the qashqai. U can actually control it like what some of the bros mentioned. Try it at the traffice junction, when the car comes to a complete stop (ur normal braking pattern), release the brake pedal pressure abit.. the istop wont be activated. After a few try, u will get the hang of it.. the car wont inch forward 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point is using right tool for right job and no, I would not advise trying to control critical braking to avoid SS and just brake as normal, concentrate on the road or relax. Cheers.

jiakliaobee 1st Gear September 22, 2018 Share September 22, 2018 Actually Richard, like what many Bros have pointed out, the I stop is not that easy to activate unless u apply adequate or full brake pressure with your foot. Unless you are very heavy footed with your brake pedal, most people won’t have I stop activated unnecessarily. At red lights, my car do not inch forward at all. And no I stop is activated. Same with reversing 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Close to 2months since I collected the car, but haven receive card. Anyone face similar delays?I got a couple of missed calls past 2 weeks and only yesterday realized it’s from Accor. Is this Accor plus free membership for 1 year really attractive? Cheaper than booking hotels via hotels.com or Expedia or from the official hotel website? The desire package from TEK is nothing desirable in my opinion. Just fluff. I didn’t bother with the desire decal (looks worse than sticking macdonalds decal). And what does desire offer anyway? TEK should just improve on their service quality rather than introducing useless programs 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you register for member and stay in the Accor hotels for 10 nights, you will automatically be a Silver member. You get the same discount of up to 10% as a Classic member, you will get the additional welcome drink, late checkout and turndown service with Silver. If they offered the Gold or Platinum Accor membership then you will get the free room upgrade and access to the Executive Lounge - very useful if you are entertaining guest or just want a quiet breakfast. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jiakliaobee 1st Gear September 23, 2018 Share September 23, 2018 Does anyone have any recommended workshops who are very familiar with Mazda cars? I’m thinking of doing servicing outside even though i still have free servicing with Mazda for one year Rather do outside and have piece of mind than leave my car at tek behind closed doors and wonder what they doing with my car, especially after all the horror stories of cars getting scratched etc 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, you heard about horror stories but are those a norm or are those exception? Does it mean that outside workshop will treat a car better and the cars there will not get scratched?So, dont get paranoid just because of a few cases, i am sure tek have cctv to monitor their workshop and drive way too. They have so many cars, are there so many complaints about mishandling and scratches? Edited September 24, 2018 by Ct3833 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
