    I am the owner of a 2018 mazda3 sport pretty much completely base model. Im talking no sunroof, no mirror light, physical climate controls, no blind spot monitoring, and of course no heated seats. Where I live it can get very cold and I am so jealous of my friends who have heated seats. Would it...

    We just purchased a used Mazda 3, as per the title of my post. We're trying to find the appropriate service manual for it. The car was manufactured in Japan, and I'm finding that the manuals that I've been finding online don't quite match the VIN series. The VIN starts with JM1BL1M57. Would...

    Ok so I recently got my 2014 Mazda 3 I sport. Love the car. But the stereo control is so basic it's killing me. Does anybody know if it's possible to replace it with the touchscreen from the GT trim? If so, how hard would it be? Side question. Can I do the same with seats?? Replace the cloth...

  8. 2010-2013 Mazda 3 & Skyactiv Discussion
    Hi all, new to the group here. My wife's 2013 Mazda 3 I Sport Skyactiv was in a bit of a wreck a couple years ago. She was turning left across traffic and a truck in the middle lane didn't see her (likewise, she didn't see him). He hit her going about 35-40 in a dodge ram. The impact was behind...

    Year 2 of my ownership -- all fluids got changed including the brake fluid. Motive doesn't make a cap that fits the Mazda reservoir, so I made my own. Bought a spare cap from the dealer (like $5), used a belt sander to smooth all that writing/letters off the top. Sealed up the vent...

    Been years since I last owned a 626, and a couple of years ago drove my brother's '06 3, and was very impressed with the car overall. Starting to look at '15 & '16 models for my wife (auto, sedan) and hoping members here can alert me to where "the bodies are buried". Seems brakes are...

    I have a new 2019 Mazda 3 Sport GT and it is making a strange noise when the engine is not running. I suspect the sound is there also when the engine is running. The noise is there if I turn on the ignition but do not start the engine and after the engine is running it lasts for about 15...

    Hello all! I’ve been wanting to upgrade my stock 16” alloys for a while now and this year I have the means to do so.

    Bought 2017 Mazda3 Sport GS in Eternal Blue Mica today (well, yesterday since it's now after midnight) I get to pick it up Friday. I'm already reading about adding Carplay & Android. I was thinking about the SD card for the Nav system but I'd rather use Waze. I'll be asking if the SD card can...

    So to answer a question I’m sure much of you have, even though my 2.0 is tuned the 2.5 is still more powerful in the top end. My 2.0 currently has Headers, midpipe, axelback, and a SRI. It is tuned on 91 and e85 and although the 2.0 is faster to 60 the stock 2.5 just blows it out of the water...
