Wife had a momentary lapse in attention, scratch one 2002.5 P5. No airbag deployment but given the previous hail damage, etc. the $4200 in impact damage did her in. Car took care of my family for nearly 11 years and 240,000 trouble-free miles (still had original clutch, struts, etc.) Thanks...

Doesn't include the harness (+$17), do you need the harness or will the existing stock wiring work?

Tons here in Nashville. My wife and I kid that they must come here to die. I see anywhere from 2-3 a day, and I have a short commute.

I've always been extremely satisfied with the after-the-sale service I've received from Discount Tire. Glad that it isn't just me.

219K miles, original engine, clutch, and owner.

Nearly 220K miles.. Changed the oil today and replaced the original post-cat O2 sensor. Noticed a torn upper passenger motor mount, and a tiny bit of a noise from the throwout bearing. Guess I'll have a few projects for her this fall. So, to recap the history (a lesson in durability)...

vetteguy.. You can pick up a brand new one for $42 or so from one of the vendors listed in the forums. The one on my wife's car developed a tear and I found the replacement. Haven't ordered it yet, but I can verify that brand new it's just over $40.

Winston- thanks for the help. Autotech looks pretty good, may end up taking both the Mazda and Lexus there for service.

PM me price shipped to 37027, thanks.

Drove my wife's car yesterday morning to fill it up with gas.. I think I've driven it twice in the last 6 months. Noticed it's rolled past 215,000 miles and still has the pep I remembered..

Not wanting to go to the stealerships to get new struts and some other work done to the Protege 5. Any suggestions on shops local to Nashville that you would recommend?

Drove the car today (wife usually drives it) and rolled over 213,000 miles. Still on the original clutch and struts. Ready for a new set of tires, and probably struts as well.. Still runs well, probably will go over it with a fine-tooth comb in the spring.
