Great condition 2003 Mazda Protege5 5-speed manual. Original owner and non-smoker. Lightly/tastefully modified. Very clean interior. All maintenance performed early/on time (oil changes, brake pads/rotors, spark plugs, fluid flush, timing belt, etc.) No known mechanical issues, besides those...

My '03 Protege5 is having starting issues. It no longer starts with a simple turn of the ignition switch when it has been sitting for a while. When it's warmed up, no problem. But when it has been sitting for several hours, I have to give it a boot with the gas to get it to start. When I do...

Ok so i have a 2003 MP5 and i have an issue with it cranking super slow, almost as if the engine is too hard to turn, with no start. Ive turned the engine by hand with no issues. Changed the battery and the starter.... Nothing has helped. I did have it started once and it ran fine until i...

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a shop that can re ring and basically rebuild my engine. It's a 2003 Mazda protege5 head just got rebuilt but the car still burning oil which means the rings are bad. Looking for a place with experience on this kind of job or specialized in Mazda engines. My...

Hello everyone, I have an 2003 mazda protege 5. It was burning oil so my mechanic figured it was the valve stem seals that were damaged. he went ahead and rebuilt the head. After he put everything back together now the car has a harsh start. I got CEL with code p0300, so I figured i'd start by...

How do I adjust the rear camber on my Protege5? Also, I've seen camber bolts for sell everywhere on the web; when you buy them how many do I need, (2) / (4)? Any suggestions on what brand to buy if needed? I recently installed a set of XXR 527's, 17x7.5 et40 with 205/45/17 tires. I love the...

So I basically just got my 2003 Mazda Proteg5 and I am really wanting to get that thing super fast and looking good. I'm not past dropping a fair amount of money, I just need some tips here as far as how to go about getting stuff done.

I made the grave mistake of letting the "detailer" at my dealership wash my car. He 100% does not know what he is doing and SPRAYED GREASER ALL OVER MY CAR AND TRIM. He also sprayed my engine bay WITHOUT permission, and fried one of my HID relays or ballast.(fckin pissed) & as soon as I got it...

I have a set of Tein S-Tech springs that I've had on my Protege5 since 2011 until a week ago for sale for $35. Just trying to get them gone so they don't sit around my garage taking up space and so I don't just trash them. I did cut 1 coil off back about a week after I initially installed...

Hey everyone, I'm new here, but not new to the P5. I've had it for a little over 2 years now and just recently came across a couple of problems. Hopefully someone can help out with one or all of these lol 1. When turning my steering wheel at idle there is a noticeable clicking/groaning sound. I...

I am needed to replace all my suspension components very badly as everything is shaking, popping, and rattling from all 4 corners of the vehicle. I am hoping to avoid the hassle of using spring compressors and am looking at Monroe quickstruts for the P5. Has anybody had any issues with these...

So i got a new engine for my 2003 Mazda p5. When I bought the engine, I put forth as much effort as I could to make sure it was for a manual transmission. I have a manual, but they sent me an automatic. How do I convert my block to fit my manual transmission? Everything fits down to the...

I've got a rotational wobble when going over 65 mpg. Can't figure out what's going on. Here's what we've done so far: -Balanced and rotated tires -Replaced driver and passenger side axles -Replaced a worn tie rod -Alignment -Put stock wheels back on to make sure the aftermarket ones I bought...

I had to replace the driver's side CV axle when I bought my P5 two years ago. We got a CarQuest axle and in the two years of owning my car, the same axle has had to be replaced twice. There's a lifetime warranty on the part so it was free both times, but the third one is now taking a dump and...

I'm looking for a 4-2-1 header for my 2002 Protege5. I know they made them at one point but i'm almost positive they have stopped. The best option i have i would think is the OBX 4-1 header on ebay for about $250. If anybody has any headers I am interested in buying. Especially a 4-2-1 header...

Im about to purchase the entire turbo set up from an msp from a fellow mazda enthusiast. I was hoping for some help on a few things. Firstly, could someone give me a list of all the parts ill need from the msp to make this work? Secondly, how simple will this transition be? I have read a bit...
