Bought my first one in 08 with 65k and 8 months later totaled by a falling tree. Scrambled with an insurance check and rental car and found another 4hrs away. Left the lot and realized oh s***, I just bought a car with no side airbags or anti-lock brakes. I proceeded to drive it for 120,000 more...

Hi, Longtime Protege5 owner on the fence about this one. Asking $9800 - clean carfax 1 owner. Nothing out of the ordinary, just an owner who didn't drive it much. 2.3 s Sport. My only real hang up is that's it's a 9 year old car. I've loved my P5, have put over 110K on it since buying in...

Hi Folks, 2002 with 161,XXX. Issue started about a year ago. Turn the key, all accessories have full power but no start. No clicking from the starter, I hear a slight click from something behind the glovebox - sometimes. Usually after waiting a couple minutes or repeated turns of...

Hi, as the title says, sometimes after putting the car in park, the idle will drop and almost stall out but doesn't. Happens only intermittently. The car will be having major service soon (timing etc..) just want to know if I should tell them to check something else. Thinking about...

Hi, as the title says, any suggestions for sticky windows? It seems that my windows are sticking a little to the weather stripping, only at the very top. They slide fine once they start moving. I sprayed some silicone lubricant on the weather stripping but it didn't seem to help. Windows...

Took my car for a fuel system/injector cleaning today. Noticed hesitation/bogging as I was leaving, turned around. Was told it was from the carbon build-up working it's way out after the cleaning. Got worse, took the car back. They found a crack in the air hose. To their credit, they knew it...

P5 Roof Rail Filler Caps. Perfect condition, never used. $50 shipped. Paypal preferred.

ever wish you had it, or ever felt like it would have come in handy? I live in Nashville, not much snow/ice but lots of rain and hills. My first two cars didn't have ABS so it isn't completely new. Just wanted some others' experience with non-ABS P5s. thanks,

Hi, 02 auto 60,5xx miles-new to me a couple months ago. did the 60k service today (independent import shop). $135 - not too bad, most of the expensive stuff was already done. Car has low miles but all of the belts are nearing 7 years old. They need to be changed sooner rather than...

Hi, 02 p5 (non-sportshift) auto here. when I move the shifter from R to D there is about 1 second long hesitation between the shifter locking into D and the transmission actually engaging. Does anyone else's do this? Is it normal for these transmissions? the shifts are smooth, no...

Hi everyone, i recently bought an 02 p5 auto 58k. the previous owner never flushed the trans fluid. I talked to a local import shop who said they do a process called a "gentle extraction" from the trans cooler instead of a pan drop. It's $250 which includes synthetic fluid...
