    Think my P5 just died

    Was driving home from work today and all of a sudden I started hearing what sounded like a piston head bouncing around inside the engine. I could actually feel the knocking in the gas pedal and shifter. Rod knock has been suggested but I won't know until the shop has a chance to look at it...

    Rattling after installing SRI

    found a pretty decent deal on an e-bay SRI (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-03-04-05-MAZDA-PROTEGE-MP5-MP3-SHORT-AIR-INTAKE-KIT_W0QQitemZ8044798034QQcategoryZ38634QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) Install went smooth, no problems there, so seems like a pretty good find for $35 shipped...

    Mirror problems...

    I just bought a mostly new P5 Saturday (used with less than 10k miles) and I absolutely love it. Just one problem though... it has the electronic mirror with auto-dim, compass and what not, but it doesn't seem to be getting power. Ive been looking all night for some install guide, or anything...
