    P5 in 2018 M&M's Superbowl Ad

    It's been a almost two years since the departure of my dear 2002 Black Mica manual swapped P5 (R.I.P.), but I was pleasantly surprised to see a familiar rear-end during the game last night. Any ideas who this is?

    A Cornering Question

    I was cornering on the highway the other day, and I felt like the car was going to oversteer as I approached 60 so I slowed down. I fell way behind my friend, who was in front of me in a lowered Volvo. He was really surprised that I couldn't out handle him. I'm moderately lowered on yellowspeed...

    Driver Side Front Suspension Issues

    I havent seen that TSB for the protege5. I remember a thin piece of nylon on the top of my struts when I replaced them, but it was the thickness of a piece of paper. The front swaybar bushings are commonly a problem. So it looks like you can just replace the balljoint, but I agree with...

    Driver Side Front Suspension Issues

    You should replace torn balljoints regardless of whether or not they are the source of your problem. Thats not safe. Have you checked the sway bar bushings?
