    Mazda5 reliability - how does it compare?

    I think you are correct but maybe I don't understand, either. I have a 2008 Mazda 5 in South Texas and I have had a window switch and a thermostat go bad in two years at 36,000 miles; both were under warranty. I just don't see the shock/sway-bar issue mentioned. The 2008 Mazda 5 went from...

    Thanks for posting this each month; I look forward to the information. I sure wish the sales would pick up as I don't want Mazda to quit selling the car here in the USA.

    Mazda5 reliability - how does it compare?

    I just entered my TrueDelta reliability info for this quarter and, as usual, nothing to report. I see the 2008 still does not have enough owners reporting. My overall gas mileage is consistently 26-27 mpg. I have actually seen about five other Mazda5s in San Antonio in the last three months...

    March 2009 Mazda5 Sales

    I think that is true in the USA. I never have seen one here in Texas. I see Mazda commercials, but none for the Mazda5.

    How to put Resisto (Dynamat) in our 5

    Does this treatment help temperature insulation or reduce road noise or both? Why is it important to do this for stereo sound purposes? Thanks.

    mudflaps for GT

    Thanks to Skyhawk for helping me with the mudflaps. His photos helped a lot. I finally settled on these types for the rear of the Mazda5. Hopefully Madza will eventually have the correct accessory for us North American types. Installed them today. Not the best, but they will do the job...

    Rear Window Washer Nozzle Pops Out

    I figured it out. I did so because I was able to download the Mazda5 shop manual. On page 09-19-14 of the Body and Accessories section, it shows two simple clips that hold the washer nozzle in place. Mine clicked in and won't come out now. We will see when I use it later today. Thanks for...

    Rear Window Washer Nozzle Pops Out

    My rear window washer nozzle is loose. When I use the spray, it functions normally but pops out about 1-2 inches. It is easy to push back in, but it is still loose and probably won't stay in. Is this common to the Mazda5? Does anyone else have this happen? What is the remedy? Thanks. For...

    Very nice to have the Mazda5 service manual even though the engine is a 2.0 liter. I presume that is a diesel? Maybe not.
