Sticky for Service Manuals (FSM), Service Bulletins, Recalls, OEM booklet, Etc.?

I would like to see a thread with links to other threads with service manuals, bulletins, etc. Something like this thread, which is from a Honda forum:

http://www.honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=1664547

I do not want to see one thread with all of this information because what you'll end up with is a 20 or 30 page thread that nobody is going to want to wade through.

And I also want to see the moderators delete some of the current sticky threads - do we really need a sticky thread about a modified Mazda5 Speed whatever from a year or two ago? And the "Owner's Quiz" thread should be merged with the "Prices Paid" thread.

Are you asking for links to the literature or the forum to host it, because all this is available online already?

OEM books and owner's manuals are available here - https://www.mymazda.com/MusaWeb/displayOwnersHome.action

There's a TSB sticky on the main Mz5 page - http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123724110-Mazda5-TSB-resources

Recalls - http://www.internetautoguide.com/10-9-50-1480/mazda-mazda5-recalls.html

Service Manual (though it's like 5 or more years old, so it's not exactly current) - http://www.mediafire.com/?wgev1ww9dc1c27g
 
Ive been wanting to put together a Mazda5 FAQ thread with information like this. It would include:

Model Differences
Refresh Years
TSB's
Recalls
Common Issues (tires, rear shocks)
Common Upgrades (roof rack)

However, i do not have the time to do this. Maybe i will build an outline, and people can contribute. I can put it all together on the first post.

Also, ive reviewed the stickies, and i like having the MS5 thread. It is a cool car and even though it hasnt been updated, i still think new people should check it out. And, the speed5 is still around. Autobahn is doing a speed2 as well. Ive asked them to update both, but they havent yet.
 
That sounds like a great idea. Although we have owned our 5 for 2 years, we still don't know much about it.

.. do we really need a sticky thread about a modified Mazda5 Speed whatever from a year or two ago? And the "Owner's Quiz" thread should be merged with the "Prices Paid" thread.

I think in that Mazda5 speed thread there were pictures of the insides of the MAzda5 as they were 'disecting' the vehicle. I used the thread everytime I wanted to know what is behind the plastic panels. wiring, plugs etc..

I suggest we keep the sticky's. If they cause aesthetic issues, how about putting them in sub folders so it won't bother the view?
