Hi again, i bought a used V6 yesterday, and since it is standard... can anyone tell me how do i turn on the Cruise Control ?
And how does it work ? It retain's the speed it is turned on ?

( i warned you it was used, because there is no car manual

)

when you are driving at your designated speed over about 60 or so push the cruis buton then hit the set button on your wheel, wait a second or two and it should work. when you are done hit the off buton or the breaks.

I have a manual with cruise control..buti dont see it on yours..although mines a 92 it might be in a diff place. cause i also dont have an airbag.

I had a '92 stick with Cruise control and I have a '93 stick with cruise control now. But I've never seen a '94 MX3 so I wouldnt know where your cruise buttons are, on the '92-'94s the buttons are on the steering wheel. If you have cruise control though it will be obvious, you'll have buttons somewhere easy to see that say Cruise ON Cruise OFF etc.

And you have a fuse box right by your knee and one under the hood.

Hmm, good question. I have 92 GS standard and I have cruise control. That's an interesteing question, cause I don't ever remember pay attention to where the controls were on the 94+ with airbags

Here's a pic of a 94+ without airbag, the controls are on the wheel, same as on mine, well, where mine was with the stock wheel

I have a 96 manual w no airbag, and is just like the pic. Turn it on with the buttons on the dash and control it with the buttons on the wheel.

Unfortunately, there a few different configurations wrt cruise control main switches. Since it's an E-Spec car, you'll have to look to the E-spec wiring/dash layouts. In an effort to track down fog light switches I got a set (meaning it's a double switch affair) that came from a Dutch MX that would take the place of the NA Spec Cruise Control switches ... ie fog lights on switch and a fog lights off switch just like the cruise control config. Then again, it may be a single switch where it's push once for On and push again for Off. Perhaps look to Grants site for more info in this regard.

you don't have cruise control as it seems from your picture, if you do there would be a button on on the dash behind your signal light switch, to activate cruise control, and another one 2 on the stearing wheel to engage/disengage

if you have cruise control you should see a second throttle cable going to a pod. If you have no switches what makes you think you have cruise control?

thanks gang .
I am also registered in a brazilian MX3 forum, and someone put an engine pic showing me that if i dont have a circular piece left of the engine , i dont have cruise control.

I went and looked, and it was not there .
I thought it was a standard feature on V6 ...

Nevermind then...

Someone told me that he loved V6 engine's, because of their ability to receive twin turbo ... has anybody tried a twin-turbo mx3 ??
Either in the 1.800cc or the 2.500cc V6.
