Not Just Me, I'm Not Alone Once again, thanks for the comments: I'll respond to your comments/suggestions/advice all together. First off, Mctoon, I'd appreciate it if you did mention it Pacific Mazda. I called their service department and they laughed at the advice I received from Dave Wood...

Dealership Identity Hey, thanks for the quick responses: One of you recommended trying particular dealerships. Well, I live in Newmarket, Ontario and the local dealer is Dave Wood Mazda. This is the same Dealership that told me to not use the Mazda accessory in question and to not use car...

The Problem is not me Thanks for your replies: To answer the first question in the replies, absolutely the moonroof wind visor is a Mazda part - an Genuine Mazda Accessory made for the Protege. As a rule, I never put third-party accessories on my car unless Mazda sanctions. I don't care what...

Please Help Me: Just over a month a ago I posted a thread looking for advice about this same problem. For those that responded, although your advice was great, I still have the problem. Here it goes... I own a 2003 P5 that now has a grand total of 6000 km on it. Within the first week of...

Damn, even bagels with seeds. You're living on the edge. OK, let me add a little to the Canadian vs. American P5 lighting issue. I have no idea what the lady in Mctoon's original posting (of this thread) was talking about, but Mctoon lives in Victoria, British Columbia on Vancouver Island (...

SunLight Guy When I read you last reply I was laughing for a while. You see, your situation sounded too much like mine. I'm 26 - soon to be 27-and my father just won't let me take control of my own negotiations. It's like some Italian right of passage. You have to sit and watch so that you can...

Thanks for the quick reply I can say with absolute certainty that my moonroof was closed. It is a habit of mine to double check the roof, windows, doors, etc. Everything was shut, the fan was off (for good measure), the radio was off. I am paranoid. Additionally, I don't have a roofrack. In...

Has water leaked into your Protege5 ? OK folks, I need to hear about your past experience(s) and I need your advice. This evening I took my P5 through one of those Touchless Car Washes because I didn't feel like washing the car by hand after work -- if the car is not heavily soiled the...

I cornered myself into that rule You see, I yelled at my friends and girlfriend for doing it. I can't preach it and not live by my own word. Besides, coffee is one tough substance to remove (yes I said substance...have you tasted my coffee?). Uclap5, I see your point, and I respect it...

Tears in My Eyes I haven't laughed that hard in a while Sorry McToon, but that first reply to your comments brought me to the floor. "Was she MILF?", that was poetic, seriously. I laughed for a solid hour, and still I'm laughing hours later. McToon, were they Mt. Royal Bagels or Side...

Additional Discount Graduate Rebate I forgot to mention this, though I am sure you would have seen "the writing on the walls," literally - with all the advertising. I received an additional graduate rebate from Mazda Canada. I believe it was $600, though don't quote me on that. The graduate...

Pacific Mazda Best Deals in BC Hey there. I read your question, all the way up in 100 Mile House. I am now in Toronto -- Just moved back after 5 and a half years at the University of Victoria --, but I can tell you that Pacific Mazda in Victoria is your best bet. I purchased two Proteges from...

Oh thank God Geezer: First, thanks for replying so quickly. I was getting concerned that something was seriously wrong and was about tot take it out on Mazda. THanks for saving me the humiliation. Yes, condensation does accumulate on the outside of the windshield...constantly. As I have said...

Why does my windshield constantly fog? I'm wondering if any new 2003 P5 owners are experiencing problems with windshield fogging? I have a Mica Black 2003 P5 with 3000km on it. Every once in a while, after driving for approximately half an hour, my windshiled will fog along the bottom ridge...

Is your dealer on Crack? Did you give your dealer sh*t?: Seriously, I haven't heard of a dealerships applying advertisment stickers to new cars since the early 90's or late 80's. What's up with that? Even more amazing, it sounds like it's common State-side. You see, up here in Canada, the...
