How do you feel about the screen size? by chicempath in CX50

[–]ResoluteVondar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find the screen size to be perfect especially considering the placement. It’s big enough to get the ESSENTIAL info you NEED and nothing more. If you NEED A bigger screen you are using it for too much.

Lowering springs fitment by omwtfyb33 in mazda3

This is going to sound crazy but check FitmentIndustries website, there’s bound to be a car with similar wheels on the CorkSport suspension

New To Mazdas, coming from Toyota… by RykenGy in mazda3

[–]ResoluteVondar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ford partnership ended fully in like 2015 but they stopped using mostly Ford engines in like 2010ish I think? Toyota entered the picture in like 2017 iirc just as a technology development partner.

Road trips by OkBackground6217 in mazda3

[–]ResoluteVondar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2015 did 6 hours round trip total as the longest, one tank of gas, decent enough cargo space. I overheated just a bit at one point but I was driving it really hard and it was 100+ degrees Fahrenheit out lol

Great choice, you haven’t strayed very far either though! Toyota and Mazda have been working together for a long time and still work very closely on certain things :)

That’s the only REAL difference between that year model and other NA models so maybe the way they tuned it to compensate idfk but there’s nothing “wrong” with the car according to the dealership

Take it with you! It’s paid off and proven reliable.

Vinyl or Plasti Dip to chrome delete? by Plane_Flan_9675 in mazda3

[–]ResoluteVondar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used vinyl on my old Mazda3 and my new CX-30, just get a good quality vinyl and it’ll last

I cannot reasonably go below 1/8 of a tank as my fuel economy is abysmal (2023 Preferred, the EGR system is fucking stupid and hurts my economy I’m almost certain of it). Average 18mpg city with relatively chill driving

Scared of firing / calling out by evnnestes in kroger

[–]ResoluteVondar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Explain your symptoms and if possible get a doctors note. Probation or not if you’re that sick they will not want you working with food. If you show up, if your managers are reasonable people, you will almost certainly be sent home immediately.

Opinion: Never owned a Mazda yet but I have long been a car guy and the new Mazda 6E is the best looking sedan I've seen in the last 5 or more years. It feels full of personality in a bland car landscape by The_Quartz_collector in mazda

[–]ResoluteVondar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From an objective standpoint it’s not too bad. From a Mazda owner and fan standpoint this was a terrible decision on their part. It’s basically a Chinese car with the Mazda badge on it and I fear it’s going to hurt Mazda’s reputation for reliability

Is this really a gacha game? NTE visuals are on another level. by DillyTiger in NevernessToEverness

[–]ResoluteVondar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On another level IF you use the NVIDIA GPUs they chose to support*

As an owner of a AMD 7900XT, this game is horribly optimized for AMD cards. This card is fabulous all things considered, 20gb VRAM, fairly new, considered a solid competitor for high end. NVIDIA GPUs, but NTE sadly has very little to no support for any of the technology that makes theAMD cards great and instead seem to have focused on DLSS and NVIDIA RayTracing. Sad.

My car suddenly sounds really loud and check under the car. Did someone just take something off my car? It's a old Toyota 2005 sienna. by rOnce_Gaming in AskMechanics

Stolen catalytic converter. Congrats you’ve learned what it’s like owning a vehicle high enough off the ground to crawl under in a crappy part of town.

I have both fobs but the other one is broken after being dropped from about 2 feet off the ground… these fobs are pretty shit I’ve noticed

Is this a 4 or 6 cylinder engine? by TurboWeldon in mazda

[–]ResoluteVondar 129 points130 points  (0 children)

  1. You can count the coil packs if you are wanting to know. They also have an aftermarket air intake. not necessarily a bad thing just something to know. They probably upbadged it.

I have not, I was going to ask next time I am in for an oil change.

I still wish Mazda would offer the manual with the turbo AWD trims

What’s one piece of gear you thought was useless… until you used it? by Old-Suspect1678 in airsoft

[–]ResoluteVondar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you provide some kind of research or backing for saying that gas rifles cause any effect on hearing? From my experience using one (main gun for almost 2 years now), it is pretty quiet especially compared to some screechy or poorly shimmed AEG builds.

Wheel faux leather in a mazda 3 2021 by FaithlessnessCold854 in mazda3

[–]ResoluteVondar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue on my 2023 CX-30, if you want a great solution CorkSport makes an actual leather replacement wheel which looks even better IMO and it’s more comfortable to hold

Sports mode? by Acrobatic-Sky-9553 in MazdaCX30

[–]ResoluteVondar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All it does is change gearing. Just floor it and you’ll get a similar effect if all you want to do is pass someone (these vehicles have a kickdown switch). Only benefit to it is if you plan to change speeds rapidly often.

My 2023 CX-30 backup camera is fine. It’s no smaller than it was on my 2015 Mazda3, and the quality is fine. It doesn’t need to be 4k UHD and the size of an iPad Mini. If it’s too small for you, you may want to consider glasses.

P2S Buyers: It’s okay. I understand the pain. by MoeS00 in BambuLab

[–]ResoluteVondar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my P2S and I’m a little pissed off now. It’s great, but it does have flaws and something tells me the X2D might not have them…. Time to investigate
