    Help me diagnose my problem

    I had what seems to be the exact same problem. I did my brakes awhile back. after a few days i heard this clicking and sort of grinding but really only when i was at constant speed. under accel. or braking, no noise. couldn't find a problem visually. i thought it was a bearing or CV so i took...

    Sunroof rattle in my P5...anyone get this?

    i agree it's just from body flex. close your roof and push up on the glass. you'll see the entire rrof flex like a wet noodle. i took mine in and they tightened some stuff and it went away. however the first time i opened and closed it it was right back. mind you i only get it with the roof...

    I'm hearing rumors that the P5 will be..

    the focus, protege, and certain volvos are going to share the same platform...for better or for worse. also i highly doubt subaru will buy out fords portion of mazda considering they are collaborating with GM right now...but hey ya never know.

    Hush Hush

    second running this rumor has been around for a bit and i checked into it at a dealer near by. it sounds legit. there is going to be a different colour for the msp and it is black.

    Mp5 Cousin

    platform sharing as far as the protege being the platform for the new focus, that's not exactly true. starting in 2004 the focus, protege, and certain volvos (s40 type series) will all be built on a universal platform. there will also be some major component sharing like suspension, maybe...

    Gas gauge

    guage based on this thread i'm assuming our guages are non-digital. that being said most guages of this type are calibrated so that the last quarter tank is the only time the guage is really accurate. this is really the only time you need to be seriously concerned about your fuel level IMO.

    2 Sets of lbulbs and 4 fuses later.....

    short? you might want to check the condition of the wires and not just jiggle them. you may have a bare spot that is shorting out which would explain some of the symptoms you are having. also check the ground. i 've never seen the assembly nor have i ever worked on the lights so i may be way...

    Got Brembos?

    ? not too sure what you mean by: should my rotors not last as long because i live up here? i've read your comments on having them coated or something to protect them from the weather but overheating is not a weather issue, correct? perhaps you were refering to the price....don't really know.

    RX7/supra

    rx-7? considering that mazda has just spent a ton of money on developing the rx-8 i highly doubt they will bring out a "new" rx-7 in 2004. however it does look sick and the supra isn't that bad.
