Hi, my Mazda 3 2023 came without TPMS, and I know in other countries Mazda comes with TPMS. I have purchased the original TPMS sensor and what I am asking is whether with your device (the tablet in the video) there is an option to activate TPMS? because I suspect that the TPMS on my Mazda is only not activated. or am I mistaken?

I like Mazda because they haven't jumped down the CVT rabbit hole.

Drove my 2008 Mazda 3 until 2021. Bought a 2020 Mazda 6. Daughter is still driving the Mazda 3.

Btw if your seatbelt is on, when you flip to reverse or drive the parking brake will disengage automatically. I get the importance of a manual ebrake...but its kinda nice to have peace of mind parking on a hill or slope and not feeling my car move or like itll snap free in park. Mazda seriously outdid itself with every car they make, they look good, drive good and best of all, performance is great between reliability and drivability

I have two Mazda 3s. One is a 2007 I bought new and is now my daughters college car. The other is a 2017 2 liter. Both great cars. They stepped up the luxury aspect of the newer cars. Definitely recommended.

only thing i hate is the cylinder deactivaion because when it change you feel a little hesitation. (plus maybe the authold and start stop function that you have to put on/off at the start of every drive)

Scotty, enjoy your reviews from Melbourne here in Australia. I own a Mazda 6 1999 model with a 2.5 lt engine. After 280,000 klms is has been bullet proof reliable and still does not use hardly any oil between services. I find the 2.5 lt engine is definitely better than the 2.0 (too gutless ).

I was a Mazda owner for literally 43 years. They build great cars. The sporty handling is a positive, and I always thought you got more for your buck than with the equivalent Toyota or Honda.

Leasing a 2023 cx-30 turbo and biggest complaint is horrible fuel economy. Like 14L/100km which is kind of a deal breaker. Drove a mazda 3 2022 for a year and fuel consumption was better but ride was bumpy due to low profile tires. However, cx-30 makes it up on lower insurance. Other than this, they are very stylish cars with semi luxury interiors and handle amazing. Love the HUD and 360 surround cameras with wide angle front and reverse views. No other cars in the same class have them. Cameras a must for cx-30 due to low visibility out the back.

I have a 2012 Mazda3 manual with 156,000 miles and still going strong.

I'm rocking a Mazda 6 2018 touring man I love that car. Wish they didn't stop making them. I got it with 50k and it's at 80k now

I own a 2022 CX5 and 2024 Mazda 3 Sport and I enjoy driving either one. Mazda must have faith in their product because up here in Canada they warranty them for 3 years unlimited kilometers bumper to bumper and 5 years unlimited kilometers powertrain .

What year Mazda M3 are you reviewing and what trim?

My 2014 Mazda 3 has been my most reliable vehicle. Not a single issue!

It's special. '13 was only 2 model years since Skyactiv was released - a completely new engine to not go the hybrid or CVT route. And look at Mazda now.

i recently switched from my first car, a 2009 corolla, to the 2023 mazda CX30 and it’s been fantastic, happy to know it should last me a good long time

Scotty, what are your thoughts on the cylinder deactivation for the new mazdas?

Hey Scotty. I’ve got a 2014 Mazda 3 hatchback that creeks and cracks in the front when I go over slight bumps or holes or even speed bums at a reasonable speed. What should I do? Also, thinking about trading it in for a CX-50 Meridian. What are your thoughts on that car? God bless you man! Having a lot of fun learning about cars..

8:35 i love feeling the shifting in my 2020 camry i just got lol.....never going back to cvt

We had the 323 then in 1992 the protege; but it was still called the 323 or Familia outside North America. Anyways I thought I’d be clever and get one with the 5 speed to avoid transmission issues but that blasted 2 liter FS-DE intake plenum lost its variable inertial charge system valves and the hold screws went through cylinder 4 pretty bad and bent some valves. After rebuilding the motor and ripping all that intake junk out it gets 1 or 2 less mpg, but it’s been running great anyway. Sure the new cars may be higher build quality from an engineering perspective but I gotta say I do like my cast aluminum parts instead of plastic, cable handbrake, and cable throttle. One thing I would like to know if it even exists... Are there any brand new cars manufactured today that have a cable throttle instead of drive by wire? Is it illegal for them to make a car without a computer controlled throttle?

Mazdas have had their little issues, water in headlights, spider web effect cracking of paint-my last one was barely 5 years old when the paint on the roof started spider webbing and cracking quality is not what it was years ago (my car was always garaged not parked outside when I wasnt driving). At that point I was into Toyotas and thought I'll give the mazda a try, looked up a forum for other Mazda owners here in AUS and many reported same issues including odd noises under the seat. That mazda 3 was the first and last Mazda I bought.

I got a 2020 mazda3 hatch in September 2022, they’re essentially perfect economy vehicles. Few minor issues that are easily outshined by all of the benefits. At least within the compact car class, mazda easily matches Honda and Toyota in quality.

Cool of Scotty to ignore the trunk being misaligned. 😊

Is the cylinder deactivation reliable and fairly maintenance free

@Notfiveo0

7 ай бұрын

Not all models or years have that. I have a 2023 non turbo front wheel drive and it has neither start stop or cylinder deactivation. I’m going to look into whether it is on the AWD or the turbo. On the Mazda web site it is unclear.

F'n a Scotty. I'm 75 and I've had 8 Mazdas over the years. None have ever let me down. About half of them were stick shift. Currently have a CX 30 because easier to get in and out of. Wish I could get a manual transmission though.

Yaaaay scotty did a video about mazda! I used to have Mazda under my radar since I was a Toyota fan boy and absolutely loved my 07 camry (had the oil burning engine that thankfully never burnt oil) and wanted another camry but unfortunately me being a newly grad I HAD to go atleast 2 year old car so insurance wouldn't stick me severely and the 2021 camrys were so pricy because of the name. I did test drive a corolla but I did not like the feel of the cvt and IF it broke down was gunna be ALOT more cost to fix it. Plus me being a 6'4" muscular man the corolla was a tight fit plus the suspension was AWFUL. It felt like a brick and my camry that was almost 2 decades older felt better, but then along came Mazda 3 specifically the Mazda 3 Hatchback. I originally want the sedan but due to seeing a hatch irl and seeing just how short it was and had a swooping hatch and not a SUV mini homology weirdness like the corolla hatch. It was beautiful in my eyes and so I made mt choice. About 4 weeks later after my camry was titled from someone sideswiping me, I put a down payment on my current 2021 Mazda 3 turbo hot hatch. I've had it for 3 months now driving it work and I love it. I know this is a LONG story, but if you are considering a Mazda 3, let my story be a needed push! I graduated as a poor college student, got a job my degree is in, got into an accident and got my Mazda 3. I've racked about 8k miles and it's fantastic.

I have a 2019 Mazda 3 AWD Sedan with leather. I live in Canada we just had a foot of snow. Even with all seasons tyres the Mazda handles fine no problems or issues it’s not the best AWD, I think Subaru has that. My previous vehicle was an FJ cruiser, but with gas prices getting ridiculous up here it was time to downsize. Other cars I’ve owned have been Mazda MX-6 and RX-8. Subaru Tribeca( 09) Also my wife has a Mazda CX-5 GT turbo both our current Mazdas have been great cars. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a Mazda to anyone. When we bought the CX-5 we test drove lots of cars including the Lexus NX yes it was a little more luxurious, but not $15k more than the Mazda. It felt like you pay $10k just for the “L” on the grill. Keep doing the great videos Scott 👍

I have a mazda3 2010 with 160k and still run like a charm. Just bought a cx 50 get non turbo as a second car. Really love Mazda

Give it 5-10 more years and mazda will have the same “reliability tax” as honda and Toyota. They have not been independent from ford long enough for it to fully kick in yet. The word is spreading on these things though, so if you’re interested I would buy in soon.
