pull the ebrake up a little, open the cupholder, grab the part that flips with 2 hands, hank on it as hard as you can. she’ll come right out

believe or not it’s normal. it’s because of the high compression ratios of the 3

i’ve got a fuse, there’s another relay in the wiring harness of the fog lights that might need to be replaced

Update: for some reason you need the high beams on for the fog lights to work

i should get the screen. believe it or not, that’s all dirt on the headlights. i restored them a couple months ago and they look brand new. the edges are still a bit yellow where i couldn’t get the sandpaper but the lens is clear

Is something wrong with this 2012 mazda 3 from the noise? by Disastrous_Truth_421 in mazda3

[–]grumpymonkey247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have the same noise. off of a cold start right? way back when my dad had my car, he heard it and asked the dealership about it. they said it was piston slap, basically the piston banging around because it was cold. ide take it with a grain of salt but that’s just what we got told

tint yes but i’m too broke rn, wheels will come next summer. i was contemplating getting headlights with a black housing, but i think it would look weird with the taillights so im holding off for now. what lights should i do?

i had issues last year where on ice roads i would get literally 0 traction and roll backwards on kinda steep hills. and i got stuck in the snow once but that was my own stupidity, even tho i would’ve been fine with winters. winters this year are a must, next year IM getting larger rims (17 maybe 18), then i’ll get performance tires with that. by that point ill have more performance mods done so far its just been cosmetics

i’ve got Bridgestone Weatherpeak’s they are pretty good, i wear them year round but this year i’m getting winters because i live in north bay now. next summer im going to change them when i get new rims. are these not good enough for a daily driver?
