CX-60 equipped with Bose audio system
honeycut_mazda5 replied to Psychil's topic in General Car Chat
The 12 speakers are designed for optimal performance. The instrument panel has a single 80 mm Twiddler speaker positioned at its centre. Each door mirror patch is equipped with a 25 mm neodymium tweeter. Additionally, there are two 115 mm high-excursion neodymium woofers, each housed in a custom-engineered cowl-side bass enclosure with a volume of four litres. These enclosures are integrated into the body frame. The car is equipped with four 80 mm neodymium mid/high range speakers, with one speaker installed in each door. Additionally, there are two rear 65 mm surround speakers, with one speaker positioned in each C pillar. Furthermore, there is a single 130 mm neodymium woofer housed in a custom-engineered bass enclosure with a volume of 10 litres, located in the spare wheel housing. Which one do you personally feel a sense of longing for? -
When an automobile is just 1 or 2 years old, it seems peculiar to replace it, which causes me to be sceptical whenever I encounter them being sold. Having an elusive and undetectable malfunction would provide a compelling justification for relocating the vehicle. (as you are now doing, transferring the responsibility to the subsequent fortunate recipient). As usual, one must use caution while making a purchase.

I have never seen any kind of wrench appearing on the heads-up display (HUD). Is it visible when the vehicle is stationary and can you get a photograph of it?

The light that is now illuminated is the maintenance due soon indicator, which is activated by the maintenance schedule timer in the infotainment system. To clear it, reset the maintenance due timer in the Vehicle Settings.

Nevertheless, I am unable to choose my preference... The CX-30 offers more practicality and I am particularly fond of the blue colour. However, the Mazda 3 is an aesthetically pleasing vehicle. I want for the United Kingdom to have access to the same range of engine options as are available in the United States. I need an automobile equipped with a 2.5 turbo engine.

The Mazda 3 has an aesthetically pleasing appearance and offers a satisfying driving experience. However, the CX-30 surpasses it in terms of accessibility, making it simpler to enter and exit the vehicle. It has almost comparable handling capabilities to the 3 and maintains an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Thank you. In my opinion, the automobile is very compatible and it is more resistant to chipping compared to my previous Soul Red Mazda 3.

Greetings, everyone. Due to the difficulty of getting in and out of my old 4th generation Mazda 3 hatchback, I decided to get a 2023 Deep Blue Crystal e-SkyActiv X CX-30 GT Sport, which is more convenient for me. The colour of my Mazda 3 was Soul Red, however I believe that the Deep Blue colour is more suitable for the CX-30. Observed below while still at the dealership.

Problems with remote control or key fob

Problems with remote control or key fob
honeycut_mazda5 replied to honeycut_mazda5's topic in General Car Chat
I adhered to the directions in an attempt to get the key from BSM, in case it was located there. I refrained from driving until this morning, when it was indeed found in BSM. Extracting the key proved to be a significant challenge, but after persevering, I was ultimately successful. Despite my repeated attempts to push the lock button four times, the corresponding indicator light failed to illuminate. Undeterred, I proceeded to hold down the button, but no response was elicited, save for the perplexed onlookers who were left wondering why my vehicle was emitting several beeps and flashes. -
Problems with remote control or key fob

I am willing to attempt it, but what is the likelihood that both of my batteries have completely lost their charge? -
Problems with remote control or key fob
honeycut_mazda5 replied to honeycut_mazda5's topic in General Car Chat
Additionally, during the vehicle's servicing, it was brought to my attention that the wifi android auto adapter I had installed may be the source of the problems. There is a hypothesis that any USB device connected to the car might potentially be causing the troubles. Subsequently, I disconnected it, but the problems persisted. Since then, I have hardly used it and I consistently disconnect it when the automobile is not in operation. -
Problems with remote control or key fob
honeycut_mazda5 replied to honeycut_mazda5's topic in General Car Chat
Thank you for providing this, however I do not believe that is the underlying problem. If I had inadvertently activated power saving mode due to excessive button pushing, I would have entered and exited it several times. I have only encountered the 'touch key fob to start button' warning on rare occasions, rather than on a regular basis. Furthermore, how can I ascertain if I am in a state of BSM, given that the means of entering and exiting it are identical? -
For the last 7 months, I have been encountering persistent issues with the key of my PHEV Preferred vehicle, which have been occurring intermittently over this period. Approximately one month ago, I availed myself of the gratis service provided by the dealership and expressed my concerns regarding these difficulties. Unfortunately, none of the issues were resolved, and it is possible that they have even worsened. (I have a faint recollection of discussing it on this topic, but I am unable to locate my post) The following are the challenges I encounter: On a notable portion of occasions, I approach the driver's door and attempt to open it, but it does not unlock as expected from closeness and contacting the inside of the handle. In such instances, the process may succeed after many attempts, but often necessitates my retrieving the key from my pocket (which may be particularly bothersome if I am carrying items) and pressing the unlock button on the key. Moreover, I often have to push the button numerous times before it functions properly. Occasionally, after successfully unlocking the vehicle using any method, I attempt to activate the engine by pressing the start button, only to get a notification indicating that the key is not recognised. Occasionally, repeatedly pushing the button may ultimately be successful, however there are instances when it may not work. On one occasion, I received a prompt to place the key fob against the start button, so I even use that method without receiving the prompt, and eventually, it proves effective. I have activated the walk-away locking feature, however its functionality is inconsistent and unreliable. When the system functions properly, I perceive a solitary auditory signal upon exiting the vehicle, followed by an automatic locking mechanism activation after about 30 seconds. However, on several occasions, I do not perceive the first auditory signal, and sometimes, I do hear the initial signal but the locking mechanism fails to engage. In such instances, I am once again required to extract my key from my pocket and activate the locking mechanism. However, it is worth noting that the locking mechanism seldom functions well on the first attempt. Typically, I find myself having to push it between 5 to 8 times before it engages. On a recent occasion, it took around 15 attempts until the vehicle was successfully secured. There have been instances when my vehicle unexpectedly displayed the message 'key not recognised' and emitted a continuous chime while it was running. Despite finding this noise irritating, I chose to ignore it and continued driving. Fortunately, the issue resolved itself after around 20-30 seconds. I have attempted to use both of my keys, and I have had the same problems with both. Although I have not attempted to replace the batteries in the keys, I do not believe that is the cause of the troubles, particularly considering the recent service I had, during which I expect they would have checked for that. (I informed them about all of these problems, and they instructed me to bring in both keys for reprogramming). Are there any other individuals encountering this problem in any manner?

Considering all the issues you described, they may all be resolved within a day if the dealerships had skilled service personnel and, in some instances, the necessary components. I believe that Mazda is improving and becoming more efficient in these repairs, without being too optimistic. I own a Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) and it has never been left overnight at the dealership. There have been a couple improvements and the ride has been consistently reliable for 9000 miles. Avoid the PHEV (my dealer concurs).

Severe weather conditions will impact the battery's lifespan. The capacity of a battery to store charge is influenced by cold weather due to chemical reactions, rather than being a problem of the battery itself. Connecting the vehicle to an external electrical outlet should have no impact, unless you are using an extension cord between the outlet and your charging cable. If you need to do that task, I recommend accessing the internet and purchasing an extended power cord for your automobile.

The shutters are unrelated to N/A or turbo. When the vents are closed, they prevent air from flowing past the front of the car, resulting in increased drag and reduced fuel efficiency. Dynamic front grilles Active front grilles are widely used active aerodynamic features that are regularly seen on popular automobiles. The dynamic front grille adjusts to accommodate the cooling requirements of the engine, electric motor, or battery located behind it. The system often comprises motorised fins or vanes that have the ability to either open or shut. At lower velocities, the engine or electric components experience less strain and need little cooling. Consequently, the active grille is in a closed position, which enhances aerodynamics by reducing surface area. At elevated velocities or in conditions where the components experience increased stress, the fins or vanes expand to guarantee the appropriate airflow for adequate cooling.

That is unfortunate. I comprehend the perspective of the dealers on the matter, however. It is essentially the same as a rock damaging a headlight, windscreen, or any other part of a vehicle. Warranties do not provide coverage for damage that occurs while driving. The portion consists of the shutters and a shroud to which the shutters are attached. Naturally, the shutters themselves are not sold separately; they are part of an assembly. The Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the Mazda is $619. It is likely that a slightly reduced price might be obtained if you possess the skills to do the necessary tasks yourself. In the near future, I want to remove the front bumper cover and put a debris screen in front of the shutters.

I attempted your recommendations, however they were ineffective for me. A thumb drive is functional. I have made the decision to purchase a more recent iPod equipped with Bluetooth. I believe it would be beneficial to increase the number of USB ports and include one that is compatible with older devices.
-
Indeed, that seems to be the same type that I own. I really anticipate implementing your advice tomorrow. I am now located in France, and it is dusk. I express my gratitude for your assistance in resolving this vexing issue.
-
I will make another attempt tomorrow. This seems to be a positive development. Thank you. I am quite fond of and value this forum. I have just purchased a CX 30, which I assume is the most recent model available. The skyline is located in Humera. Additionally, it lacks the feature of automated cubby hole charging for the phone.

I will attempt to use the steering wheel, but I believe it is just outdated. It lacks Bluetooth functionality. I anticipate the need to purchase a Bluetooth gadget.

We appreciate your response and want to provide assistance.
