Thanks for the quick reply guys!!

I was in for service and brought the Silverstars with me, they threw them in for nothing as they did my oil change. LOL

Good, cause someone on here said that it took them ages to do cause it was hard to get at.

How difficult is it to replace the headlights? I had Silverstars installed a little less than a year ago and one has burnt out on me.

No doubt, good call ChiMSP!!! We don't need people to feel like they can't ask questions without fear of getting grilled and insulted.

I just got off the phone with the dealership and told them about the 156E. They gave me one big product number ending with S. I asked them to have another look into the 156E and they said they would look and get back to me. What is it going to take for them to get it right??

Thats the thing, they say that they lube them and the car is fine, but after a few weeks and warm weather the squeek comes back. I just got the call saying that they just ordered some more bushings in. I guess I'll phone back and make sure they ordered the right ones.

Do you think that I could make Mazda order me a different set of bushings rather than the ones that they seem to keep putting on that squeek after a couple of weeks. I have had my dealership replace the bushings going on 4 times now and the squeek has always came back. Any suggestions???

True enough, but I'll make sure I don't go into the red zone again.

By the way, thanks for the tip Jersey, knowing the power drop off point is a good thing to know.

I'm glad it wasn't 7500 then, it sure looked up there but I only glanced for a quick second before I threw her into a higher gear. It just had me a little paranoid and thought I would ask if I did any damage as I generally drive her pretty conservatively.

(headshake. Someone told me that it wasn't a big deal but I thought I'll ask the knowledgable people at this forum. By the way, the time I did go into the red area was by accident and not watching or listening to what I was doing.

You guys think that if you go past the redline, say to 7500 to often you will do much damage???

I agree, there is absolutely no shaking at all over 60. Not sure where that came from.....?

You guys think that HID lighting is worth the money?? And if anyone has them, have you had any problems with them? I'm thinking about switching over since I love the look.
