    Manual transmission feels like someone is holding it in 5th

    Hey guys, I was driving my 2010 Mazda5 home yesterday and when I went to downshift from 5th gear, it felt like someone was pushing the stick to the right and wouldn't let me pull it back over to get to 4th. Almost like there was a ton of mud or something blocking it. I pushed the clutch in a...

    Nail in rear driver's tire

    Hey guys, I got a nail in my tire and got it plugged this morning. I was thinking about just replacing it, so I was wondering if I have to buy the exact same brand as what's on there now (if I only replace the one) and if I can just replace one? Or should I replace 2 at a time for even wear...

    Hey guys, when I press the off button on the heater/AC, the arrow doesn't disappear on the dash and it still blows a little even though the fan is off and disappears. I'm not 100% positive but I thought when I first bought the car that pressing the off button would make the arrow pointing to...

    Clunk in rear of car...

    FYI: At 3k miles the noise has stopped. I guess whatever it was had to "wear in". Tim

    Couple issues/questions

    Hey guys, it's been about 25 degrees here in sunny Maryland. I've noticed that my windshield down near the dash creaks when I drive now. I didn't notice it when the weather was warmer when I took the car to Florida a couple weeks ago. Has anyone else noticed this? It might be my imagination...

    Clunk in rear of car...

    So I got the car back from the dealer. They heard the noise I was talking about and tightened everything down in the rear. The car still makes the noise and I test drove another one at the dealer and it seems to make the same noise. Although I didn't have a speedbump to go over, just a couple...

    Mazda5 TSB Resources

    You shouldn't have to because technically if something were to happen to your car because of a TSB, they could be held responsible. So they should fix it regardless of warranty.

    I def like the color. The 5 speed makes it less of a van and more like a sports car. I'm taking it to Florida in 10 days, it should be a blast! Tim

    Clunk in rear of car...

    It's not a pop sound that I'm hearing. It's almost like a shock without fluid in it. Could yours have been a pebble in the wheel that hit the wheel well as you made the turn and put side pressure on the wheel?

    Clunk in rear of car...

    I bought the car new with 30 miles on it for a Mazda dealer. It's done this since the day I brought it home because I have to go over a road with speed bumps to get to my house and noticed it the first night. I looked in the back last night and there is nothing loose back there that would be...

    Clunk in rear of car...

    I did check but tonight I'm going to pull the tray out with the tire stuff in it just to make sure. It does feel like its coming from under the car though, but we'll see. I scheduled service for Thursday and will cancel if it goes away after removing the spare tire stuff. Thanks again! Tim

    Clunk in rear of car...

    It's hard to describe the sound but you can definitely tell a difference in sound from the front compression of the shocks and the rear. Almost like the rear shocks are bottoming out or something. Should the rear sound like the front when going over a speedbump slow? I assume yes which is why...

    Clunk in rear of car...

    Ok, I'll do that. It should sound like the front, correct? Just nice and smooth?

    Mazda Noob!

    Hey guys, what's up? I just bought a 2010 Mazda 5 Sport. It's a red 5 speed. I've been lurking here for the past couple weeks since I bought it but thought that since I posted a question in another part of the forum I'd stop in and say hello and thanks for all the info on the site. Tim

    Clunk in rear of car...

    Hey guys, I'm new here. I just bought a 2010 Mazda 5 Sport 5sp. When I go over speedbumps (no matter how fast or slow), the back end of the car sounds weird, like a clunk when coming off the bump. At first I thought maybe it was the tire tray in the back, but it sounds more like its coming...
