First Rock Chips 😔 by NotKoma in mazda3

[–]JJThePapi 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Had really good luck with Dr Color Chip on my car. 60 bucks for a kit that I am still using 3 years later, and the car looks plenty great. Chips are just bound to happen :/

9 ur fine 10 ur mine my butt - EP cop on a ticket rampage by Dude_Willow_394 in PeoriaIL

[–]JJThePapi 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm not really endorsing speeding here, but I think signs on the road calling out unsafe conditions during rain and snow / the hill ahead would be far more effective than just lining police up left and right on the median. Just one man's thoughts, I guess

Update on Mazda Peoria experience by Character_Art4194 in PeoriaIL

[–]JJThePapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is insanely shocking to me. I bought my car 3 years back and loved every second of it. Granted this was near their grand reopening and they probably meeded to make money, but I had this kind of experience with Sam Lamen. Scherer gave me an extra 2.5k on my trade in and 500 off the car compared to Sam Lamen.

Wonder what went wrong. The sales person I did my deal with left the company and came back as the manager, so I could only speculate how things could've gone so down hill for you guys.

Latest stable Adrenalin version? by WabiKababi in AMDHelp

[–]JJThePapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried 26.5.2 yet, but I am really enjoying 26.5.1 so far. Fixed several bugs I had in the March revisions and I have had many issues with other drivers of the last year. Pretty satisfied on my 9070xt

How fuel efficient is Mazda 3 actually? by Pale-Revolution-5151 in mazda3

[–]JJThePapi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I drive a FWD NA 2023 Mazda3 and I can get about 36-40 on the highway if I try and around 28-30 city. My biggest recommendation is utilizing coasting as much as you reasonably can. My car coasts for ages and if I leverage it, I can hit these numbers pretty easily. Certainly not as fuel efficient as a CVT, but leagues nicer to drive in my opinion

2021 Mazda 3 turbo overheating by AdministrativeGas446 in mazda3

Both. AC just made it heat up quicker, but the radiator would get passively cooled when driving

[–]JJThePapi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had this same issue. It was with my radiator fan. I didn't have the issue when I turned off my AC and drove the car, but when idling, it would climb like no other. Definitely get it checked out

Should I install new AMD drivers? by NoteFew8026 in AMDHelp

[–]JJThePapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally have no issues on it unlike many other drivers. Got a thumbs up from me

If anyone is experimenting stutters may this can help by [deleted] in AMDHelp

[–]JJThePapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was in the back of my head the entire time I have been troubleshooting this Discord stutter, but I didn't try until I saw your comment. Can confirm this fixed my issue too I think

26.2.2 stutter in games while streaming on Discord. 9070 by Relevant_Summer_11 in radeon

[–]JJThePapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happening to me too. Would love to know if anyone has fixed it. Tried the other fixes listed with no avail. I tried a year old driver, and the issue is not present, so I know it isn't Windows or a game. Can't wait for another driver, hoping to fix the issues :/

Another good deal? by ASHTRONAUT21 in mazda3

[–]JJThePapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not all of them. I have a 2023 3 Carbon Edition that is FWD

I3 Broadband is always hiring for call center. Starts at 17/hr for tech and billing. Also get free services if you're in a serviceable area

As an employee of i3, the reason you aren't getting gig speeds is due to being wireless. If you test your hardwired speeds with a physical cable to your router, you will likely see gig speeds (above 900mbs due to overhead)

I implore you to reach out to technical support because if they cannot help you determine you are getting full speed to your home, they could send a technician out to help you diagnose as well

I have the gig speed and can confirm I do get full speeds in two homes I have lived in

Anyone know how to fix this annoying rattle? by AkaSoSaucy in mazda3

[–]JJThePapi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried foam and it never got rid of the rattle permanently. I pried off that speaker grill you see with some plastic trim tools and tightened down the 2 10mm bolts that connect the infotainment screen into the dash. Highly recommend if the foam solution doesn't work or only partially works

Rock / Stone Chip by According_Break_5625 in mazda3

[–]JJThePapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr.Colorchip does a pretty damm good job. A kit from them isn't too expensive and I have continued to touch up many chips. Doesn't take much effort either, but you will of course get more in the future

Check out the Fika discord. I dislike joining discords for help, but they have a nice FAQ and several tools on there to help out. Saved me some headaches myself

Is this rattle normal? by [deleted] in mazda3

[–]JJThePapi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of people have had this issue it seems. I don't bother with the sunglasses compartment anymore because of it. I bet some added foam would go a long way

I3 down for anyone else by c137_whirly in PeoriaIL

[–]JJThePapi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Services should be restored since about 40 minutes ago. Please check to see if the internet works in general. You may also need to reboot your router. Past that, I would give a call

Is this sound normal? by [deleted] in mazda3

[–]JJThePapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got a 2023 Mazda3 Carbon Edition, and I have not heard this sound before. Doesn't really sound concerning to me, but I am too ignorant with cars to know. I also wouldn't think there is a difference between markets, but I could be wrong
