    Chicago dealer to get P5?

    I got mine at Harold Mazda in Olympia Fields. They were great about everything. No hassles, and they didn't pressure me to buy the car. I forget the number and stuff because I don't have it here with me. I'm sure you can look it up. Good Luck! :)

    U should come in and see this.........+20HP

    What's funny about it is that they don't even show a picture of it. Also, if you really want to fake out the temperature sensor on your car, you could just stick it in some ice or something. That'd be just as good as spending $15 on some :bs: product.

    Who has a Auto or A/T Protege5?

    For me, I got the automatic for 2 reasons. 1) being that there was, and still is, a chance that I have to get surgery on my left knee. That totally eliminates driving with a stick until it heals. 2) being that I too, like so many others, have to deal with crappy stop and go traffic for 2 hours.

    ticking noise

    If you're saying to put ATF in with the oil, isn't that kinda bad? I thought you weren't supposed to put anything in there except for oil, as stupid as that sounds. I dunno...maybe I'm just stupid.

    Mileage on factory Dunlops

    I've got about 22,000 miles on mine. I think I'm gonna change out after winter time. I'll probably put on another 15,000 before then. We'll see what goes. When I go to change the tires, I'll get new wheels and stuff. The thing I'm wondering about is brake wear.

    Rear Bumper Replacement

    I haven't seen if it actually knocked the bumper loose or not. Now, I gotta figure out where to get it done at...maybe I can just clean it and try to touch it up myself. If that doesn't look good, then I'll have it sanded and stuff. Touch up paint shouldn't be too much.

    Rear Bumper Replacement

    As with most people, I'm not too awake at 7 in the morning. That said, I was backing out of my stall at McDonalds from getting some "breakfast", when I hit a landscape trailer. It wasn't my fault that the trailer was half-way out of the stall, but anyway, I tapped it. :mad: Now my bumper is...

    ticking noise

    Yah...it's real stupid. I noticed it the first day I got my car, and it hasn't gone away since. My mom has a protege ES, and her's doesn't do it, so I don't know what the deal is. I want to take it to the dealer to get it checked out, but I know they are gonna give me hell for changing the...

    what audio stuff have you done?

    I have an alpine deck and had to mount it on the bottom. I'm just gonna say this...it gets hot...really hot. Actually, sometimes the cd's come out almost too hot to touch. I can deal with it until I can actually find somebody that will do a custom install for the bracket. Some idiot gave me...

    ticking noise

    I know that when I first start up my P5 in the morning, it ticks some, but after about 5 minutes of driving, it goes away. Just wondering if it might be the same thing.

    Just got a set of rims

    MP5Raycer...you gotta put up picks when you get your 18's. I was thinking about getting 17's, because if I got 18's, I'd want a bigger tire, and that would mean that I'd have to have the speedo adjusted. I might be wrong, though. I want to change the overall diameter of my wheel/tire combo...

    I get to design it!

    Well...seeing that Columbus is a tiny bit of a drive and I have to get up for work at 4:30, I guess I won't be seeing you guys there. After I get a few more mods to my car and I'm at school, I'll join up and have some fun.
