I saw a couple of these threads near the top of the forum, figured I might as well add mine too. :( Car was a 2008 Mz5 Grand Touring, bought new off the lot for my wife when she was pregnant with our first kid. We are at three now. TBH, it was getting a bit cramped, but it was paid off! In...

2008 Mazda5. Est. 90K miles or so. Wife called today that the temp gauge was "all the way to H". Mostly stayed "in the middle" during the 45 minute drive. When accelerating, creeps up toward the H. When slowing down, it cools down, or when maintaining speed. Checked the overflow, it's at...

I have the rear work done on my '08 Mz5, and wanted to get the rear aligned but found the front and rear has to be done together. $80-$90 for a 4-wheel alignment, $70-$80 for just a 2-wheel alignment. I haven't replaced my front struts yet or checked up there for looseness in anything, so it...

See title, provide pics/shipping price to 17356 (York, PA), thanks!

2008 Mazda5, 93K miles. My wife's car, it's been driving fine all winter. She drove it to/from school yesterday fine. Went to go drive it back to school last night and it wouldn't start. It wouldn't attempt to turn over, almost as if the trigger voltage wasn't reaching the starter/solenoid. It...

The Classified system is tricky to make a wanted ad, so I put it here, figured there were some people looking to offload some stock parts. Feel free to please move if it's possible. Looking for a sway bar to upgrade my Mazda5. You can PM me here or e-mail me drdirt at hotmail dot com with...

First I will have to say how impressed I am with THMotorsports. They already had pretty close to the cheapest shipped price on Koni FSD shock kit 2100-4045 at $557. I found a 6% discount code 6OFFTOTAL which I found applies to your NEXT purchase. I ordered a couple parts this weekend then...

Need something for my wife's car. Thinking of doing the FSDs, they are around $550. KYB are a little over half that, but the quality and warranty lean me more toward Koni -- last set I would have to buy. People have now had them for a while so looking for some feedback. Shock mounts --...

As I posted in the Engine/Trans thread, I have a 2008 Mazda5 Grand Touring with 83K miles, and I need a transmission. Everyone is pushing me towards getting rid of the vehicle and buying something else. Trans is going to be $1500-$3000 depending on which route I take. We owe $5,700 still on...

2008 Mazda 5 Grand Touring 83K miles. Wife took it in because the AT light came on. Dealer response: "Incorrect ratio in 3rd gear" error. Black fluid. Trans must be replaced. $3,335. I've done auto and manual swaps no RWD vehicles no problems. I've done head gaskets, cam/lifter/valvetrain...

Curbed it screwing around with her phone. Going to have to have a new knee assembly put in (strut/control arm/knuckle/rotor etc.) Hopefully that is the extent of the damage. Shop is picking it up today. Current estimate is $600 parts/labor/alignment. Wheel is trashed but probably driveable...

Rear cargo mat and pet barrier for the '08? Hatchbag anyone? I was hoping they would have something like they do for the Mazda3 for a rear cargo mat, but it doesn't appear that they do. I would like one that fits with the 3rd row folded down, and a pet barrier also to keep my dogs in the...

I found a couple in Silver Spring, MD. Both are Grand Touring, which is the trim model that I want. One is a base-level, no extra options. They wanted $20,900, invoice is $21,698; so $800 below invoice. This is the one we wanted. Right color (blue), and we can add in the options we want...
