• Mazda 2 - What is the point of keyless start? 19 Dec 2022 (Forum)
  Yesterday I backed my wife’s Mazda 2 out of the garage as she was late leaving for work. The engine, push button start with keyless start, was still running when she jumped into the driver’s seat and drove off. 20 minutes later she rang me saying there was a red warning light on the dash in the shape of a key. I suddenly realised that I still had her car key in my pocket!!

• Mazda 3 2.2 Sport Nav '17 - Mazda 3 2.2 Skyactiv Diesel Facelift issues 27 Apr 2022 (Forum)
  It seems they used to be very problematic with dumping fuel into the oil, DPF blocking, EGR valves etc... a lot of the forums I've read tend to talk about pre 2017 models; making me unsure if these issues are still present in the facelift model. I live in Bristol where I do quite a bit of stop start but a good 1.5 hr run at least once a fortnight to south wales. Coming from a 3.0 I6 B58 BMW engine, I really didn't want a slow petrol... I like the idea of having a diesel for the torque, economy and low RPM on long runs.
