Before I saw your message, I genuinely believed that I was the only one experiencing this sound.

That's it, indeed. That sounds more like a crushing sound to me, although the hard drive analogy is true.

I hear a faint buzzing or whirring sound that sounds like a computer writing to a hard drive.

I absolutely agree! I believe it's altering the amount and direction of air flow, but it sounds like they're using inexpensive parts to do it, and there's a noticeable plastic sliding sound that almost sounds like the dash is cracking.

Recently, I've heard a buzzing or whirring sound coming from beneath the dash. When the HVAC system's AUTO button is disengaged, this sound ceases. I believe that the buzzing or whirring sound I hear is caused by the system's continuous use of actuators to adjust the air duct flaps while the AUTO button is pressed.

Hi everyone, We spent the summer leasing our first Mazda, a 25 CX-90 PHEV, and I thought I'd share my opinions after six months. Advantages: Handling. I adore this car's handling. From little vans to GMC Yukons, practically all SUVs and vans have a body roll feel. Compared to all of others, this handles MUCH better. truly appreciate how cosy and comfortable driving is. AWD Over the past week, there have been two distinct 5-inch-plus snowstorms in Pennsylvania. It performs admirably. Amazingly good! I am accustomed to 4WD since I own a 2500 Ram and have owned numerous other full-sized trucks. So far, the get-in-and-go AWD has done a great job handling snow. When there is a lot of snow, switching to off-road mode gives you a sense of confidence because it performs more like a manual gearbox, employing downshifting to slow down and requiring much less braking. Comfort: I prefer the "sit in" sensation of SUV seats over the typical sit-on feel. Style: The style is sharp overall. Driving on electricity I adore how the EV feels and how quiet it is. When the gas motor starts, it's unfortunate. I only wish we had more miles. screen and dash. I adore the shorter/wider screen, though opinions may obviously differ. Additionally, I've come to like the control knob, which at first I thought was really unpleasant. I generally enjoy the controls and dash. Cons: The dreaded EV service only took 400 kilometres to reach us. went to the shop for a month to obtain a new EV battery. The loaner was given, but we weren't very happy with it. awkward transition from EV to petrol. The back and forth is a little awkward, but I'm not sure what can be done about it. auto features including wipers and high beams. Horrible! They're just awful when compared to a lot of other automobiles, though I wish I could claim they're not amazing. particularly the wipers. When a small amount of road dirt gets on your windscreen, observe how the wipers repeatedly accelerate to full speed in an attempt to clear it. High beams are prone to confusion. Unless I'm on a vast open interstate, auto cruise control is completely unreliable, and even then, it likes to hug the queue. In general, Mazda needs to improve its automotive characteristics and appears to be lagging behind in the field of artificial intelligence and technology. Start remotely. I love the electric warm-up. In a few minutes, the car will be warm. However, there are moments when using the app is quite unpleasant. There's no reason why the factory shouldn't include a remote start button, particularly when the engine still needs to start despite a low battery. "Clicky" noises from the air conditioner are annoying. I'm not sure what that is, but it sounds like cheap plastic parts moving while the vents are changing in auto mode. We like this automobile overall. It handles well, has a pleasant riding quality, and is entertaining and useful. I sincerely hope they release a model that is entirely electric. Although I'm happy we have this car and hope there won't be any more problems, I would also really like to see Mazda make significant investments to address some of the problems.

I previously owned a 1983 Skoda Super Estelle equipped with a 1.3-liter engine located at the rear of the vehicle. The radiator was in front, as was the boot. Despite its robust construction, this Skoda included coolant pipes extending from the rear engine to the front radiator. Additionally, distinct pipes were installed to connect to the cabin heater. The engine technology was distinctly reminiscent of the 1970s, akin to that of a Morris Minor; yet, it functioned very well for its time, representing the pinnacle of Eastern European engineering. The heater took an excessive amount of time to generate warm air during winter, much alone directing it onto the windscreen to defrost or defog; nevertheless, once the heat commenced, it was relentless. It was specifically engineered for the frigid Arctic winters on the continent. I recall a significant snowstorm impacting London approximately 25 years ago, during which the Skoda effortlessly withstood the incessant snowfall. Excellent traction on snow, attributed to the rear engine's weight over the back axle. As long as you didn’t throw the car around in the snow…!!! We are privileged to have remote climate control capabilities via our smartphones and efficient heat pumps that can do rapid defrosting. Isn’t the evolution of technology fascinating?

I was particularly surprised by the absence of ambient lighting strips in the doors of my C-HR. I was really disheartened to see that my Design Trim PHEV lacked this feature, which I had anticipated, and my research had led me to believe it would be included. Curse you, Autotrader, for your deceptive specifications list!

No issue It is regrettable that many individuals adopt a generalised perspective regarding the features an automobile should possess, often influenced by information that does not accurately reflect the specific model or year of the vehicles they own. It is a common error and misconception to make such an assumption; yet, upon realisation, one often reflects, 'Oh dear, I should have investigated further.' In the past, it involved using an engine to warm it up while attempting to avoid excessive breathing that could fog the glass.

Thank you for the responses. Regrettably, mine is an early 2023 model, so I presume there are no choices for remote climate control. Thank you once more.

First generation ceased production. September 2023 Production of the second generation commenced in October 2023. A first-generation model lacks any remote functionalities via the app, as the car does not support them.

I know 2023 was the transitional model year; is yours a Gen1 or the new Gen2 design? I am not really familiar with the earlier model, but my 24 Gen2 C-HR Gr Sport does provide remote climate control using the app, as the Gen1 should as well. Refer to the screenshot below, albeit its applicability is contingent upon the availability of vertical features in your vehicle. Does your app indicate that you possess the newest version, 2.20.0?

We require either the 1st generation or the 2nd generation, as 2023 marked the transition year.

Greetings, I have own a CH-R for seven months; it is a 2023 GR Sport model. Should climate control be a standard feature on this model? I am unable to locate any information, and the application indicates that I possess none. Several other Toyota drivers have suggested that it should. It is scheduled for a service next month, and I have enquired about the matter; but, I wish to equip myself with further knowledge if feasible.

I have tested it, and it successfully uploads my JPG files from the photographs I captured. Ensure that the image you are attempting to upload is indeed a JPG file. If it is a .JPEG, you may alter the extension to .JPG. Alternatively, you can convert the image from its current format to JPG using a conversion or editing application.

The URL provides an opportunity to submit photographs, but it states "only acceptable formats permitted." I believe a JPG image would be acceptable but not supported. What is supported? The system did not accept my JPG file.

To whom should I direct an email requesting new features or suggesting enhancements?

I have not received any letters as yet. I will contact the local dealer.
