    Auto door locks...need help!

    Mine's done that for the past couple of years.. It's the passenger side rear for me. I just haven't had time to pull the door cover off, but I bet it's an easy fix once you get the part. Todd

    What's your mileage?

    Looking forward to the 200K mile money shot.. Cleanest she's been in quite a while.. Still has a nice shine to her.. Need to claybar/polish/touchup chips but she'll do. Here's the latest object of my desire that's been taking my attention off the wife's P5-

    What's your mileage?

    Drove the P5 for the first time in months (wife usually drives it since I bought the LS430).. Noticed it now has 172K miles on it.. Still haven't gone in for the belt service.. Wife still has the approx 60 mile a day commute, so it'll keep racking 'em up. We drive the LS430 for weekend...

    168,xxx miles on stock struts and springs.. Left front strut is "grunting" over harsh bumps, but car still rides like new (other than the sound.)

    Dealer Service - DFW Area

    Ok, spring is closing in.. As is 170,000 miles on my 2002.5 Protege 5. In that time, I have only replaced the battery (once) and the brakepads (once). Regular oil changes as well. And that's it. Father forgive me, but the car still drives as new.. This spring, I'd like to take her in for a...

    What's your mileage?

    I spend my time driving, no time to post up.. Check my member date.. I've been here a while, just lurking. Actually my wife spends most of the time driving it, and I drive my Mustang. I drop in here from time to time for tips and maintenance info. I spend way too much time on other forums...

    Manual trans. I need to run a carfax of mine sometime to see the mileage pattern.. We don't drive between Texas and Tulsa every two weeks like we used to, but my wife and I each have a 35 mile commute each way. I drive the P5 one week, the Mustang the next, alternating the cars with my wife...

    How long did your stock break pads last?

    Made no sense to me either. Only thing I could surmise was a dragging parking brake.

    How long did your stock break pads last?

    Mine went at least 140,000 with the rears going before the fronts.. Lots of highway driving helped them make it that far.

    Kumho ASX's PROBLEMS again....

    Ok.. I just spent 20 minutes typing in a novel about my ASX's, and then accidentally closed the window. So, here's the cliff notes.. In 2 years, we've had 6 ASX's (205/45R-16) replaced under warranty by Discount Tire for similar abnormal inside-shoulder wear. Car was never tracked, and we...
