Guess it's time after nearly 16 years. Be great if it went to an enthusiast [removed]

Friday afternoon question: do you get really excited when you see another P5 and wave at the driver? How many do you see - for me I'm sure it's less than one a month. I have a 35 mile round-trip commute on Chicago tollways and suburban surface streets, but there just ain't many left around...

Been getting lots of cold rain around here recently - last two times it poured, I threw a P0304 code (cylinder four misfire). Runs crappy until it dries out. Ordered new plugs and wires and am hoping that will fix the problem. I see no sparks coming from the coils when I mist them with a...

Anybody have this issue where the metal gas tank cover thing doesn't spring open when you pull the lever? I looked at it last night and couldn't figure out what is wrong - but it was only me - I need a friend to see what happening at the door when the lever is pulled. But if anyone has fixed...

I searched the forums last night, but just thought I'd throw this out there, too. We finally need a 7-seater and I'm looking at a seemingly pretty good deal on a 2012 CX-9. Anything besides this very common brake booster problem to check out? I see this was the model year right before a...

Is there anything I can ask my mechanic to do for a heavy clutch? I really didn't notice the issue until I was in France last week and they gave me this little Peugeot 108, and then I came back and got in the the P5, and merde it was about thousand times more difficult to push the pedal down...

Hey everybody - looking for some arguments to convince my wife. I've got a 2002.5 P5 I bought new - tomorrow it will turn over 100K miles. I know, I know - I used to live 1 mile from my work in Georgia, and then was transferred overseas for 4 years, so it basically sat at my folks place...

Like a dumb *ss (hand) , I backed out of a tight parking spot downtown last night and scraped the f*ck out of the side-step molding on a curb. The whole plastic thing fell off. It isn't in too bad a shape but I need to get new fasteners and clips to get it back on. Does anyone know of a good...

Collision and comprehensive actually went down! Unbelievable. NOte in bill said that claim experience on my make and model has resulted in a reduction to my vehicle's rating group. Any other Pr5 owners get this?

Okay, I usually drive around at night with the fog lights switch depressed as a matter of course - mainly 'cause I think they look cool and it provides a little extra visibility. But the other day I was talking to this guy who was railing against all the idiots on the road that have their fog...

I've noticed after I shut the engine off there is this load hissing sound coming from under the hood. Lasts about 30 seconds then just stops. Mostly happens after short <5 mile trips. Sort of sound like coolant is escaping from a valve or something, then it just shuts off. Anyone else notice...

Second time this has happened. The light was on this morning when I got in my car to go to work and still on when I went out for lunch. Now it has gone off after lunch. This happened before and I ignored it. I think it might be weather related - this was the coldest morning yet here. Has...

... in one year. Ouch! I thought I was getting a good deal: I paid Edmunds TMV and got 0% for 48 mos on a 2002.5. Today they say my car is only worth only $10K for trade-in. Well - I guess I'm going to have to keep it, at least until I'm even on the loan. Just had to vent...

Long time lurker, infrequent poster. It's official, my Pr5 is really too small for two big dogs and the baby girl that is coming along in T-minus 3 weeks. MPV is kinda sporty, but it's still a minivan (ugh!). Does anyone know when/if a wagon version of the Mazda6 is coming to the US of A?
