Keep in mind that almost all brake service centers give a "lifetime warranty" on the pads. There's a reason they're so confident. It's because they last forever. Since my earlier post I was thinking about my F150 with 312,000 miles on it. I replaced the pads after some very heavy towing in...

lol, a CEL so the whole car is replaced. Right.

Better, but ugly compared to competitors.

That's amazing. I've never had to replace pads on any car with less than 100K miles in 28 years of driving and having owned probably 20+ vehicles in the family. Something sounds terribly wrong.

I have a 300 mbps connection and the video kept buffering. Oh well. Hope it runs great.

Correct. I'm not talking about an '08. I'm talking about a $40K+ '15 that has a shamefully unrefined and pathetic transmission, as well as horrid paint defects all over the car. Mine was an order and every one on the lot had defects, so I decided to take it. I learned my lesson on ordering a...

Well, I own one. And you?

Hard to imagine, but maybe it's related to the new turbo.

I have a '15 and the paint and body QC is by far the worst I've ever seen. They also still have not fixed the POS MT82 transmission. Total piece of junk. My car has 6,800 miles on it and I'm taking it to the dealer next Tuesday to have the tranny fluid changed. If it comes back whining and...

Good guess. I'd bet you're right.

What have you done with your Mazda5 today? It was a good one. It's in Richmond, KY at Gates Nissan if anyone needs a cream puff. We almost got a Signature CX-9, but we didn't need the extra row, weren't thrilled by the turbo, and worried about having to maintain the infamous diffs and tranny.

Yours is louder, but very similar.

The power steering has no return line so the volume in your reservoir basically just sits on the pump. It's OK if it's over the line. If it's up to the cap, just remove a little. No biggie.

I've heard that many times and our A/C worked great for almost 8 years. It's kinda like the sound of any A/C that's been working hard when it cycles. If you have the money, you may want to drop by the dealer. It's possible yours is worse and there's a problem. Maybe a refrigerant level is...

Traded our beloved 5 today for a Murano Platinum. I was very sad to watch her go. Also traded my '13 Mustang vert. On one hand we were very sad and had to hug to let the 5 go, but on the other the Murano is such a great SUV. We looked at literally everything and it won out. When you add the...
