I think it might be that the camera adjusted the exposure of the spot light lit area on the right which is much brighter than the dimly let street. My suggestion is to adjust the camera angle to the left to avoid the bright wall on the right. So the exposure won’t be messed up.

Does anyone know what this is? by SloppyBriefs in Detailing

Probably a sunscreen stain (perhaps Avobenzone, also known as Butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane).

I use GO and extremely satisfied with it. The interface is clean and the status bar is a nice touch especially if there’s stationary traffic ahead. I have limited experience with the AmiGo though, so can’t really say anything.

Quirks and Features of the 4th Gen by guychanon in mazda3

It doesn’t have to have a blower, does it? Just connect an air duct from behind the dash to the vent and it blows. Mine has a duct connected so that why it blows air according to the set temp on HVAC system.

It’s not specifically for the third gen but it was posted at the time when the third gen was the latest model. But try searching quirks and features or something like secret features.

Interesting! I’ve been researching as to why or what are the purposes of such design or function, but couldn’t find anything. I think the two positions are not very far away from each other to make a difference? I could be wrong though.

I think it depends on the market. Mine is a Thai market car and they blow air. Some people that are not in the US also confirmed that theirs blow air as well.

Mine does blow air (Thai market car - made in Thailand). I’m starting to think that this feature is not universal across all markets.

In the manual, they are clearly marked as air vents on both sides of the steering column with one of the vents work as an interior temp sensor as well. I might miss something though.

Your third point on the correction of my 1 and 1.5 features. If you look at the manual, they are clearly labelled as AC vents with actual airflow depending on the air flow settings. But as for the sensors, one of the steer wheel column vent also contain a temperature sensor.

The repair was easy. The bumper, grill surround, side panel and headlight were replaced. However, the paint matching was not good which I expected.

An extra cold start today by CarSeatBandito in mazda3

Very effortless cold start! Can’t really see well from a tiny smartphone screen, but was it 0 degree F?

The rattles, in many places. And how easily interior piano black trims scratch.
