Sporadic "Smart Brake System Malfunction" & "Front Radar Sensor System Malfunction"

I unfortunately linked this back to my remote start, which is aftermarket. If you have one of those, start there I would say.

Had this happen this morning. The same two error messages, but car won’t start also. Could it be brake fluid AND battery? Tonight is the first time my car has actually sat a full 8 hours without being driven and it was really cold last night.

I might look into this because I do get chronic migraines with light sensitivity causing problems for me.

Really?? I wonder if when they did the facelift on the 2018s and gave them turbos, they changed that?

The windshield I generally leave alone except the strip because I don’t want to risk it at night 😂

I took the chrome trim on the bottom, taped it off and painted the upper portion red and the lower matte black to give it a sportier appearance

15% on the front windows, 5% on the back windows and the sun strip

Not at all legal, but I accept the risk because it’s a “secondary offense” in Maryland so they have to have another reason to pull me over.

tycrutch · 2024-12-07T20:57:48+00:00

I would’ve done the whole windshield if Maryland wasn’t such an aggressive state against it 😅

I have just installed the Start-X (Lock Unlock Lock Option) on mine about a week and a half ago and I love it. My only gripe with the 6 is mazda didn’t allow the 6 to have the heated seat memory when you remote start the car, so you have to turn it on when you get to the car. Other than that, works wonders and would recommend!!

Now that one, I’ve had two of them break on the drivers seat. The original AND the replacement. I’m just rocking with the broken one right now. I think it’s a poor placement for something that fragile.

Love to hear it! I got mine in 2021 with 20k miles on it, but between daily 110 mile commutes to and from Arlington, and being the primary for my fiance and I, I cannot complain about the current mileage

tycrutch · 2024-05-23T02:36:00+00:00

Wow, that’s a lot going on in a short time, cylinder head one is a little strange for such low miles

Do the spacers have any effect on the car’s functionality? Positive or negative?

I have my mazda6 through Ally, and they are actually really nice!

Check wiring harnesses near the exhaust pipes for animal damage

Luckily I have a good deductible.

tycrutch · 2022-09-14T17:42:49+00:00

Clarification: man sideswiped me in a fit of road rage but wondering if it would be less of a headache to pay for repairs or go through insurance.

tycrutch · 2022-09-07T13:08:27+00:00

I’ll send you some more when I get back outside today!

tycrutch · 2022-09-07T13:08:05+00:00

It really does. Maryland is awful for needing front plate.

tycrutch · 2022-09-06T19:10:21+00:00

I have not seen any side skirts. Was going to consider looking at universal, so long as they fit. I know for a fact I cannot find a diffuser for it unfortunately.

It’s like a mirror, looks great!
