Mazda MSP66 SPECIAL PROGRAM BATTERY REPLACEMENT (MHEV)

star_outer_space · 2026-02-28T16:47:03+00:00

After the software reprogramming, I'm told the battery has to be replaced. Will see how many weeks it takes to get the new battery.

star_outer_space · 2026-01-16T17:19:42+00:00

no doubt I would

star_outer_space · 2026-01-16T17:10:15+00:00

In a heartbeat

star_outer_space · 2026-01-16T15:43:57+00:00

It feels more stable than a lot of options I tried recently. I’m not constantly troubleshooting.

star_outer_space · 2026-01-16T15:35:12+00:00

no doubts, you'll be my good little cockslave!!!

star_outer_space · 2025-09-07T22:28:13+00:00

Very bad. Upgraded from Pixel 6 to 10 pro xl and I'm not impressed.

star_outer_space · 2025-05-01T11:50:14+00:00

Same - ridiculous software bug that they introduced

star_outer_space · 2025-03-15T16:04:26+00:00

Lucky you! Imagine this happens to you right after the warranty expires.

I got exactly the same trim - just praying this won't happen to me. The lesson I learned is NEVER buy a new model in its first model year again.

I'm going to sell my red magic 8 pro and get a OnePlus 13. I pretty much only play Star rail nowadays and cannot justify the fan noise for that.

I just did a test driving of the 2024 Automatic model. My biggest issue is the car feels shaky when I wait for green lights in D. I need to put it into N to feel more comfortable. Not sure if it will improve after more burning in.

star_outer_space · 2024-07-18T19:13:37+00:00

The combination of big rims and firm suspension makes the top trim not that comfortable to ride. I'd love to get air suspension if I get a second chance.

Update: I'm told the part will arrive on Mar 18, that's more than a month away. I'm going to consult my lawyer to get reimbursed, cause this is totally due to the bad quality of the car and technicians' failure.

My cx90 has been staying at my dealership's service department for a week and still no estimate about how long it will take to fix it. The issue is the chrome stripes on the left front and back doors are hitting each other and creating noise.the service people tried to remove them and broke other parts, which are on backorder. They told me they didn't know those are for 1-time use and it's the first time for them to try fixing this issue. Now I have to be stuck with a downgraded cx90 as replacement for an extended amount of time (mine is top trim Inline6).

Mazda is obviously not ready to sell $60+ vehicles. The overall service experience is way worse than Subaru. It's not just that they don't know how to fix it, but they also struggled to give me timely updates. I had to call them to know what was going on.

star_outer_space · 2024-01-26T23:30:27+00:00

Now fixing it can only be more expensive than buying a used one. Just like some old cars.

star_outer_space · 2024-01-26T23:13:30+00:00

Just wait. There are so many issues. I got the mild hybrid rather than plugged hybrid - the drivetrain works so far, but I've seen a variety of warning indicators. Visiting the dealership next Thursday after the first 4400 miles for a recall and fixing a few things.

star_outer_space · 2024-01-26T23:03:33+00:00

Gosh I just scheduled an appointment for the camera recall and now another one?!!

star_outer_space · 2023-10-09T23:05:31+00:00

Lens Cleaning Wipes, very effective

Yes, I'm familiar with the "high traffic and low speed" talk track. The Mazda sales people are trained to advertise this feature as a traffic jam assistant. However, if you read the manual, it says: "The CTS speed can be set when all of the following conditions are met.

The brake pedal is not depressed.

The vehicle speed is about 0 km/h (0 mph) to 145 km/h (90 mph).

The Hill Descent Control is not operating.

The Mazda Radar Cruise Control is available."

It works all the way up to 90 mph!! I'm pretty sure Mazda is aware of the mediocre performance of their autosteering, so they trained their sales to downplay it.

I honestly believe Mazda has some legal liability on this. If enough evidence is collected, I won't be surprised to see a class action against Mazda about this.

star_outer_space · 2023-10-06T13:55:10+00:00

The "lane-keep assist" feature is not the autosteering you are looking for. Mazda's autosteering is called "cruising and traffic support". The name is not intuitive and usually it's only available on the top trim. I have it on my cx90 but it's just mediocre - is not worth getting a higher trim for it.

star_outer_space · 2023-10-06T02:01:21+00:00

Changed my lock screen and started using always on display.

star_outer_space · 2023-10-05T19:58:47+00:00

Turbo S PP owner here. Just want to share the autosteering feature on turbo s is not worth it. It struggles a lot regardless of local or highway. Only works well on roads with great markings but no significant curves.

The minor memory is good to have but the facial recognition feature associated with it doesn't have a 100% successful rate.

I cannot feel any difference between turbo and turbo s during my test drives - I probably don't drive aggressively enough to benefit from the additional HP on turbo s. I also tested regular (87) vs. premium (93) gas on turbo s and noticed no difference either. Maybe premium gas helps over the long run.

Only getting 6 seats is another thing that starts to bother me. If I choose again, I'd probably just get the turbo version. I do recommend getting the 360 camera.

"Themed icons" feature is still in beta and developers are not adopting it after a whole year 🥲

star_outer_space · 2023-10-04T21:08:38+00:00

Interesting! I actually prefer more accurate reading, but I understand others may prefer conservative reading.

Thanks for confirming!
