It makes terrible noises even when it's raining - Whereas the Chevy Volt wipers are so quiet and feel like a soft wipe! Is it the technology? What should I get for the Mazda5? Any tips?

How about these?: - fuel filter - thermostat - water pump - PCV valve is hard to reach - considered lifetime

2013 So your recommendations: - Transmission: Drain and fill transmission fluid every 30K miles - Coolant: Change at 120K Miles, then every 60K after that - Plugs: Replace every 75K miles - Brake Fluid: flush brake fluid every 5ish years - Power Steering Fluid: ps fluid reservoir using a...

Other than engine oil, what services (preventive or otherwise) should I perform? I bought it with 85k last year - been driving on freeway (hardly any local drive) - 1k at a time - now its hitting 100k. Previous owner must have taken care from the look of the car but not Tranny or PS fluid...

Having tried to suck fluid and replace, I find more dirt is coming out as the new fluid get into action. Roughly 50% oil is changed - see post. Car has 100k - it is black. I called around for price: - dealer likely $130+tax; Likely they get the color right - might do twice to get the color -...

This is a Kickstarter program and I bought one after seeing reviews about it. Here is a referral link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ericwang/thinkcar-obd-ii-the-intelligent-solution-to-car-diagnostics Link Updated above.

My rear brake pads have 3mm - dealer told me - they say resurface the rotor. I usually buy the parts at rockauto. I am puzzled that they have a large selection - Economy is not necessarily cheaper than Daily Driver! I mostly drive interstate. M5 is already known to have long breaking distance...

He repaired cars his entire career. He seems honest and politically incorrect - so the car company's are offended - wants to shut his voice off. He is not being sponsored by any companys. Dr Phil was also sued.

This guy seems very good. He said that - Jatco is no good in one of its video: https://www.youtube.com/user/scottykilmer This link states Asin for M5: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Aisin_transmissions February 2005* BG6 * 6-speed Toyota Avensis, Toyota Corolla, Toyota RAV4...

Any of you know if the tranny in M5 is made by Jatco Transmission? If not who makes it? Jatco Transmission is apparently the worst. Toyota uses another company, Aisin

Hey - thanks O'Reilly sells a blue one as the compatible product made by Valvoline - if u scroll down, it lists M5 under compatibility...

Does the spare tire come with TPMS?

Thanks @Vasy - you are an awesome contributor. I am in USA. The lights are not on now - it was a brief event.

Are u saying the beep and light was to let me know it died? Where is the "Whole TPMS unit" located - not on tire stem? If it is dealer service item, why are u suggesting to go to Costco - I never had a TPMS previously?

Anyone can shed the battery spec or model # or links?

I first started the car around 2pm and it was 75 Fahrenheit As I drove through the driveway, I heard beeping sound and the TPMS light came on - then all stopped. I had driven 100miles already. I do not think that I have TPMS from factory - 2013 Sport. What is going on? Do these car come...

The manual has no maintenance for: - Brake Fluid Exchange - AT Fluid - PS Fluid Yet both my AT and PS fluid are blackish at 90k - dealer had to flush the Tranny twice to get the color right! Do u guys have a recommendation for those three - how often should I do?

Has anyone calibrated as to where it should be after resting the car overnight? I had it changed at the dealer - they had to do it twice to get the black color removed. Manual says check it when the engine is warm and running. I did once went back to them since it was little higher - they...

I tend to change oil in 5k increments with Mobil1 Full Syn 0w20. Got this car with 85k - must have done oil change closer to 90k and another at 95k. Now at 97k, I checked the level - it was just above the min level! The car does not leak at all - the floor was reasonably flat - no strange...
