    Flooded passenger side mats/floors

    Getting moisture in my floorboard as well lately when running the AC for a while. Not as much moisture as "justaperson05" shows in his pic, but a little moisture. I had the car on jackstands the other day and couldn't find a condensation drain line anywhere on the passenger side. Any thoughts...

    Out of ideas for random idle dip, almost stalling!

    I've owned my 2003 P5 since early 2011. Mine just started exhibiting this problem a few months ago. I've replaced the air filter, cleaned the MAF, checked the intake tube for cracks / leaks, checked all vacuum lines, cleaned the throttle body / EGR / IACV, replaced the PCV valve / spark plugs...

    how do you adjust rear camber on a Protege5

    On the rear of my P5, where would the camber bolts go; how many do I need to order? Sorry that this is such a stupid question but I've not taken the time to get back under the car and inspect where camber bolts would go. We've been sooo busy and on the go, I've just not made the time.

    how do you adjust rear camber on a Protege5

    Thanks for the quick replies guys. I like the Megan adjustable arms but not sure I want to spend the $ at the moment. I'll give the camber bolts a shot first. At one time I drove it a lot. As of recent, my wife's been driving it almost daily to work since it's about 70 miles round trip...

    Anyone have a recommendation for a reputable place to order wheels from other than TireRack or Discount Tire Direct? I've used both before with good results but I'm just trying to find an alternate source that may have good pricing. Years ago I had 2 bad experiences ordering wheels online, two...

    I have a set of Tein S-Tech springs that I've had on my Protege5 since 2011 until a week ago for sale for $35. Just trying to get them gone so they don't sit around my garage taking up space and so I don't just trash them. I did cut 1 coil off back about a week after I initially installed...

    I installed Tein springs and Tokico struts in 2011; been riding on them ever since. I've never been fully impressed with the Tokico's. I'm now going to take the time to replace them. Anyone have any suggestions? I started to purchase the KYP gr2's but thought I'd reach out to the community...
