This does wonders on the cx 3. Especially when you keep that 2.0 engine healthy. I clean my fuel system/injectors every 10 000 kms. I live in South Africa the highest fuel we get is 95. And I've never seen a car so eager to go when I start it over the past 3 years owning one . Paddle shifters are a fun add-on. Mazda skyactive engines are that good. The paddle shifters are not a gimmick you can do insane stuff with these . The high compression ratio engines are remarkable. Shouts to Mazda engineers
Thanks, Carla. Your explanation was very helpful! Finally I understand manual mode and paddle shifters. 😎
Hello, I would be happy to see a more invested and long video regarding the gears. You are an excellent demonstrator. The Mazda is a beautiful and excellent vehicle.
Lol, just realized I had these. I prefer using the “stick” shifter. Miss driving manual with a clutch.
One thing I thought was a bit off base was shifting to 1st. Most people who drive manual with a clutch rarely use 1st.
I wouldn’t shift to 1st in a parking lot, 2nd is king.
That is my exact thought
Carla, you just saved my life. Cheers girl!
Thanks again for this video also
Very helpful never used mine. Now I can.
Love this video, love my Mazda! Thx C!
do you take foot off accelerator when you shift?
so as I understand, 'normally' we should 'not' use this when the auto transmission is already there. I have the cx-60 and was fuzzed on seeing the p-shifters , and kept on scratching my head, why on earth are they there with a 8-shift auto gear box ( could not even locate them in the Maz. manual btw)
Is it more economical when using pastels shifters around town?
No. The computer is designed for fuel saving. It's why it will always hunt for the highest gear to sip fuel. High rpm, more fuel consumption. All modern economy cars are tuned to save fuel and a human can not out compute the computer. Sports model has better throttle response and lets you rev higher, but Mazda only recommends you use it for passing cars. Well I use it all the time when I want to do some spirited driving. Uses more gas, but return more smiles.
When shifting you have to lose the gas pedal? As in a manual
No you do not have to ease up on the gas as in a manual.
Carla Coroy I’m gettin an used 2016 2.0 grand touring, the car is in flawless conditions. You think this car still worth it in 2019?
@@sebastianlorduy1237 If it's a Mazda .. absolutely!
@@carla-anne will it be a problem if you ease up on the gas like a manual?
Mazz-da vs Mahz-da is the new pop vs soda
She looks at the camera and not the road an awful lot 😮
Lmao
the guy in the backseat is doing great camera work 👍
wait...
Either manual with the clutch or automatic. Not a fan of clutch-less manual. Just bring the clutch back please!
Forget to shift and destroy the engine, trans, or both. Nonsense.
Fake shifting in a automatic.. Wow what a world of ideas.. Like people don't have enough to take their attention away from driving as it is...
It's entirely optional, and some people enjoy having the extra control. No one is forced to use it.
With the Mazdas Auto. u can change the gears even in D without going into manual position. Just up or down with a flip on the paddles . U can this way slow down without braking, use more the engine brake , or upshift quick to take it easy... With the Honda CVT u can not do that in normal D.
@@zimben8 This is very helpful to know. I live in the Midwest with snowy winters. And I live in a hilly neighborhood. In all my previous old cars I always shifted down on snow-covered hills to avoid sliding thru stop signs at the bottom of a hill. I've had my new CX5 for 4 months and with winter on the way I was wondering how to shift down. I had no clue and thought paddle shifting ONLY worked in manual. I just tried what you said and it works perfectly. You have helped sooo much. Thanks! 👍
Or maybe it’s none of your business how somebody chooses to drive. People like you think being a manual driver is so unique and special, when it’s really not
This comment doesn’t even make any sense.
First, it’s not fake shifting - you are actually shifting the gears otherwise you wouldn’t be going anywhere anytime soon. Maybe it is technically shifted by a computer but you told the computer to shift when you wanted it to and not when it wanted to so you still have control over it. Do you use a mouse for your computer? By moving your hand with the mouse you tell it where to go don’t you? You do the mechanical action of moving the mouse and the computer takes that input and moves the cursor on the screen. You have control of the computer by how you move the mouse with your hand even though your hand isn’t physically moving something on screen. It’s the same thing here. You have more control shifting this AT manually even if you physically aren’t rowing through the gears.
Second, it takes much more effort and coordination to shift a manual than it does to manually shift an automatic with a manual mode. These transmissions actually baby you and won’t let you mess anything up whereas with a full manual transmission you have to pay attention to your revs, what gear you’re in and what gear you’re going into (fearing the dreaded “money shift”). You also can’t stall with a AT in manual mode. Is a manual better and more engaging? Sure, but its also a dying breed thats becoming less and less offered in new cars. In the future you might find yourself “fake shifting” an AT. Interestingly, many modern high performance exotics only come with some form of AT that can be manually shifted with paddles.
What a world of ideas indeed.
