Been a while since we did the rounds of Kickstarter and Indiegogo, and after sifting through this afternoon we found three clever new auto accessories that are at the very least worth taking a closer look at. The first of the pack is the most practical, but as you work down the list they get a...

Hey guys! So I'm leaving my car off for a month, exactly 33 days, I wanted to know what are the best procedures to do before leaving so my car will be in perfect order when I return. Should I disconnect the battery (negative and positive terminals altogether)? Is it necessary to do so? Is it...

How many psi do you lose a month? My '15 sGT 6MT recommends 36 psi cold. At the end of the month, my tires end up at 33 psi cold! :nerd: I'm assuming due to the rubber valve stems and plastic valve stem covers. Other vehicles that I have with a metal valve stem and metal valve stem cover seem...

I have now been driving my 2014 Mazda 3 S-GT for six months and wanted to give an update for anyone considering this vehicle. First of all, I love it! I traded a 2012 Subaru Outback, which was a fine vehicle ... it just wasn't me. This Mazda has given me great gas mileage (I am averaging 30+...

So here is my story... (TL;DR = after eliminating the competition, the Mazda beat out the Lexus option and I hope to have a 3 in my garage soon to replace my beloved but aging and uneconomical G35 Coupe) I'm not a Mazda3 owner yet. I currently own a 2003 Infiniti G35 Coupe. It's getting old...

I recently purchased my 2014 Mazda3 sT back in July. It hasn't even been a month yet and my infotainment has had numerous issues. To cut a long story short, the iPod connected to the usb stopped working a couple days after I got the car. No biggie, I still have bluetooth, wrong...bluetooth...

Now that I've had the car for 8 months now and the "shiny" has worn off a bit, I thought I'd do a review of my ownership experience so far. The bad: The only complaints I have are just minimal and are just complaints based on my personal preferences. I still don't like the digital tach. It...

Hi, so i'm supposed to get my 12 month service done on march 31, but I only have around 8 thousand km's on my car. I know for this service they are going to check the brakes, but i'm wondering if it is really necessary since I have such low km's. I know your supposed to change your oil every...
