Man this is great tips!

Already knew about the gas pedal kickdown switch, Mazda copies a lot from BMW, I’m glad they do. I have the 2021 Mazda 3. Great car.

Such a nice car you have! 👍 I own a 1st gen facelifted Mazda3 hatchback since new....going to be 15 years old in 6 months' time!

Great video. The kick down is a great idea. But as a manual driver of many years, the one thing that I must commend Mazda on is the Skyactiv-Drive 6 speed AT. I've driven many autos over the past couple of decades and have always cringed. Many reviewers with mechanic content such as Savagegeese and Car Car Nut rave about this transmission as being the best auto on any mainstream vehicle, and I agree. It's fast, not a CVT (massive win for noise and speed), and I love the automatic rev matching on downshifts.

Have you ever been in a 2011-2016 toyota 6 speed with tiptronic

Very helpful 👌

I just bought a used Mazda 3 gt for my son and the automatic parking brake feature was really annoying. Thanks a lot for the tips.

How to turn on leaving home and coming home features? I couldn’t find any way to set it up. If you could please teach?

The last one's been true for most cars in recent years. If you put your foot down they have a mode where they basically give you more power and better gearing. This is for a few reasons like pulling onto a highway, over taking and emergency situations when you need to move out of the way. Each car does it a little different but the result is the same.

Kick down has been on most if not all automatic transmissions at least since the 1960s.

Is there anyway to make that “hold” switch to active? Right now when I turn the car off and back on I have to activate it again. Thanks!

Any way to get rid of annoying seat belt alarms, particularly in rear seats?

No way to turn them off. The rear seat alarm only goes off if it was buckled then unbuckled while driving

What is the kickdown switch good for in manual cars? My car is a manual and also has it.

No idea, probably just uses the same pedal as the auto

It bypasses set up speed limit.

Full open throttle, I’d assume. Most electronic throttle bodies will roll on the throttle, even if you stomp on it, in order to preserve transmission life. I’d assume if you push it it opens it full.

is the nav sd slot only applicable for navigation or can it be used for anything else?

Nav only

If you let off the brake pedal it does not release, if you tap the gas with seatbelt on it will release. Only takes a small tap so you don’t have to go flying forwards or back

Is there a way to turn off the auto lights once you begin driving 2mph or faster?
