Significantly pitted, with a noticeable reduction in the shining region where the brake pads make contact, particularly on the rear left side. I have been using the brakes more forcefully in recent days, however there is no discernible improvement in my vision. It is possible that Mazda may want the dealer to provide photographs of the discs if they are contemplating a warranty replacement. If the dealer has correctly characterised the problem and confirmed the need for disc replacement, the procedure should ideally go efficiently and expeditiously. If the dealer has not correctly represented the condition of the brake discs, then is a separate matter.

I would have assumed that 20,000 miles is quite premature for a rear disc to need replacement, but I am uncertain if this was due to disc wear or corrosion. I will provide updates on the process and would welcome opinions about the reasonableness of a warranty replacement in my situation, as well as any comparable experiences people may have with the rear brakes.

As my vehicle approached its second anniversary, I scheduled a service appointment at my local Mazda shop. The vehicle had accumulated just 10,700 miles. I reluctantly scheduled the appointment due to my previous difficulties with this dealership; but, I received two years of complimentary service at no additional cost when I purchased the vehicle, prompting me to go. The service was satisfactory, although it was marred by persistent communication challenges similar to those seen before; the service department was almost inaccessible by phone, sometimes resulting in calls ringing out before Reception intervened to take a message for information relay or a callback request. Later in the afternoon, I received a call informing me that the automobile was ready for collection. Upon my arrival, I was informed that the vehicle was prepared for departure; but, an issue related to the rear brakes was identified during the EVHC (electronic vehicle health check), and the findings were advisory. The report was not yet accessible, but they assured me it will be sent subsequently. In my haste, I seized the keys and departed without more enquiries. The health check revealed that the rear discs were rusted, necessitating replacement, along with the brake pads, as per standard practice. They provided estimates for the replacements using either authentic Mazda components or parts obtained from other sources. Initially, I felt astonishment since the automobile was under two years old and had accumulated little mileage, despite never being kept idle for extended periods without being driven. Surprise transformed into frustration when the situation became clear, although I spent many days to contemplate before taking action. I also had the opportunity to inspect the rear discs myself, and there seems to be some rust present. The adequacy for necessitating replacement is a separate inquiry (I am not a technician). My frustration stems from the fact that, although I acknowledge that brake discs are subject to wear and regarded as consumables, I would anticipate this occurring over a somewhat extended timeframe and/or greater miles. Acceptable deterioration, if you like. Given the car's low mileage and youth, I find it difficult to categorise the replacement of the rear brake discs as a result of "fair wear and tear." In my opinion, brake discs should have a far longer lifespan than this. I believe the fundamental issue is the usage of inferior components. Today, I returned to the dealership, since I find telephonic communication too cumbersome. I was informed that brake discs and pads are not covered under warranty, and they have never replaced any under warranty. I articulated the aforementioned rationale and my perspective that it need to be addressed as a warranty replacement matter. They dismissed my concerns and instructed me to communicate directly with Mazda. I did not go without obtaining a phone number for Mazda. Upon returning home, I contacted Mazda UK and did not receive the same information provided by the dealer. The representative acknowledged that the necessity for brake disc replacement appeared premature; however, she lacked expertise in the matter. She assured me that she would escalate the issue to the relevant department, and someone would respond within a week. I will await their reaction. My vehicle operates well, and the parking brake seems to engage and disengage without complications. The hill hold function works well, and the overall braking performance is satisfactory and progressive. The forum discussion below does not clarify if the maintenance was performed under warranty or whether the member incurred costs for the service, and the mileage is almost double that of my vehicle.

I first overlooked the red tint; nevertheless, gearbox oil should not be red. ZF oil initially has a green hue, which transitions to a brownish tint with time.

Remove the starter and inspect the flywheel rivets for any signs of loosening. petroleum leakage I suspect the rear crank seal is leaking; was it replaced during the timing chain installation?

Your article lacks sufficient information for others to provide relevant advise.

If you want quality components check mbclassics.de Niemoller Mercedes and German Ebay.

The decision is solely in your hands. It is possible that the issue is not with your compressor, but rather with the desiccant and obstructed filters. With a price tag of $150, there is really nothing to risk (except from your mental well-being).

There are really AMK kits available. What problem are you attempting to resolve?

Which kind of compressor do you possess? The kits are exclusive to a certain brand.

The quality of the product is directly proportional to its price, and you will need to reprogram it to fit the automobile. Why not just reconstruct your own? The method is rather simple.

No amount at all.

The vehicle is a 2016 model with a body type of B8.5 and a suspension type of S5. It is equipped with 20-inch wheels. The spacers I am using measure 20mm in the back and 15mm in the front.

I have used the one mentioned below, which is available for purchase from Halfords. The MVMTF Plus is equipped with GL4, which I confirmed to be accurate via my investigation. Indeed, a quantity of 2 is sufficient.

It is likely that this feature is only available on the latest models. The 2019 Optima and my 2017 Optima with HK were great. I only use Spotify and maintain the phone volume at maximum, since it also regulates the level in my vehicle.

Perhaps acquiring a metal detector might prove to be a more cost-effective option, in addition to taking a few weeks off for vacation and purchasing three sets of hiking boots?

The hue of the automobile matches rather well, so it seems acceptable. From a distance, it looks quite excellent. Perhaps with a different hue, it does not seem quite how you would expect. Correction: Perhaps you are correct. It is worth noting that the F30 is my first car of this kind, since I previously had a 320d M Sport Touring.

For those with a penchant for humour, I want visual confirmation of the item on the dashboard.

Let's go. I just want to modernise a little, you know 😄 ... Similar to other vehicles, it too has this feature. 😄 I do not have any objections to this, but do you not believe that this equipment would be advantageous for future trips? (When travelling to foreign nations, there are often no road signs.) 😄

I have a query that you may be familiar with, since you have more knowledge than me. What kind of gadget do I need to purchase in order to see speed limit signs?

I have placed an order for pipes and a defuser, and I appreciate your advice. So, if I understand correctly, remapping is mostly done to enhance performance? - Do you have any more recommendations for improvements or alterations?

I like the aesthetic appeal of dynamic pipes. However, I have an inquiry about the concept of "remapping." Is a 2L engine worth the investment? (I neglected to note that the vehicle already has 102,000 miles on its odometer.) Is it necessary to do remapping on these pipes once they have been installed?

Greetings, gentlemen! Recently, I purchased a 2015 F30 320D M Sport with a 2L engine and manual gearbox. I am a someone who appreciates authentic components, nevertheless, the standard attributes of this vehicle do not align with my preferences. Is there anybody else who has a vehicle that is the same or comparable, but has made changes ranging from minor to significant upgrades? As I am located in the United Kingdom, I would really appreciate any recommendations for obtaining guidance to a website or similar resources. My accomplishments: NOTE: I like to be frugal (although I am aware that being frugal is not always the optimal choice, so please refrain from passing judgement). All of my purchases so far have been made on eBay.

M Sport Eyebrows (Already Installed) Ordered on 23/06/2024, the BMW 330D F30/F31 rear exhaust conversion by Pipe Dynamics has a dual exit design. (Not properly adjusted - Awaiting) The M Sport Performance Twin Exhaust Rear Diffuser has been ordered on June 23, 2024. (Not properly adjusted - Awaiting) It seems that I am unable to provide hyperlinks to eBay. I would much appreciate any recommendations for modifications and enhancements, particularly pertaining to the engine. Additionally, I neglected to explain that I am not knowledgeable about cars, since my expertise is in the field of information technology. Certainly, here is the modified edition: I want to replace the existing exhaust pipes due to the current configuration consisting of just a single pipe. I would want to alter it to include two vertical bars, one positioned on the left side and the other on the right side. Is this automobile capable of doing this or not?

This is unrelated to excessive adherence to regulations. It won't be long before traffic cameras would notice this. Indeed, evading regulations is a popular activity in Belgium. Nevertheless, the act of driving with a front licence plate has little significance when compared to the mandatory noise reduction upgrade imposed by Audi of America. What about the unattractive side reflectors on your vehicle?
