    Fuel pump access from inside

    I have a 2013 Mazda5 and would like to know if anyone has accessed the fuel pump from inside the car. Specifically how did you gain access and what had to be removed. I need to replace, I think, the pressure regulator. Thank you.

    Driver side low beam headllight doesn't always stay on 2013 Mazda5

    It seems to be a contact issue with the wire inside the socket. If I "push" the wire into the socket contact is made and headlight goes on. Not sure how to proceed. Is this wire connection the type you shove in and a blade cathes it inside the socket? Or should I just get a new socket?

    Driver side low beam headllight doesn't always stay on 2013 Mazda5

    Just replaced what I thought was a burned out Drivers side low beam headlight but it appears that it wasn't a bulb issue. Headlight might come on or it might not. I checked the connection twice already. Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem may be?

    Can the Mazda 5 door locks be programmed to lock automatically at speed and to all unlock when opening the drivers door from inside? My 08 Elantra had to be programmed at the dealer and wa wondering if the Mazda is the same. Just seems kind of weird that the doors don't lock automatically, how...
