#522 of 591 Re: Wonky Power Door Lock [whobodym] by athenasius Nov 01, 2008 (6:16 pm)
Replying to: whobodym (Nov 01, 2008 7:01 am) i have had the same issue. there is a fix or it someone on here awhile back had the issue and had it fixed. it has something to do with the inner linkage. if you stand next to the door and keep pressing the key fob you can hear what ever it is that is loose. not sure how you can search on old messaged on here sorry. need to get mine sorted out too before the warranty runs out. the other door has started to do it also. try to see if it happens on colder mornings withthe car or on a front lower and first thing in the morning.   sorry i am not more help. but if you listen to it you can hear what ever is loose kind of knocking like a ball bearing on a string kind of sound as it does an extra bounce lol Replies to this message: dfalk (Nov 17, 2008 4:50 pm) whobodym (Nov 17, 2008 7:00 pm)

Replying to: athenasius (Nov 01, 2008 6:20 pm) Nothing on you tube either. There has to be a way of looking up the part number on the internet. I really HATE the local dealer, I stay away!   Help!
#525 of 591 Re: Lousy Key Fob Really Bugs Me [stillageek] by whobodym Nov 03, 2008 (6:07 am)
Replying to: stillageek (Nov 01, 2008 9:13 am) I'm still confused. Search for "Mazda key" on eBay auto parts & accessories finds nothing.   I want to have one set of key junk with everything attached and never think about adding or subtracting bits to it. Just "yes I have keys" or "no I don't". That's been my 40 year habit so I can't change now. It can be chains or ring(s) or nylon straps or carabiniers or whatever in any necessary number, so long as it all hangs together.   I have been using the small Mazda 3/8" diameter metal ring that came attached to the fob, and then putting my own key ring thru the 3/8" ring. Nothing else directly attached to the Mazda key.

Replying to: athenasius (Nov 01, 2008 6:16 pm) We had the same problem back in Aug. I just signed up and saw your notes. We had the Door Actuator replaced. Mazda part#C245-72-350. The problem has not happened since.   Good luck. Replies to this message: whobodym (Nov 17, 2008 7:00 pm)

Replying to: dfalk (Nov 17, 2008 4:50 pm) thanks -- I tried again at a second dealer, and I got a new actuator too. All well for 2 weeks now.
#528 of 591 Dash kit question by blynmazda5 Nov 24, 2008 (4:43 pm)
I'd like to replace the factory 6 cd radio on my AT Mazda 5 and install Metra Dashkit 99-7509. The salesman at the store told me his supplier told him that the Metra dash kit for the Mazda 5 only fits on the manual transmission models.   Has anyone installed the Metra dashkit?   Any feedback would be appreciated.   Gideon Replies to this message: whobodym (Nov 24, 2008 6:00 pm)

Replying to: blynmazda5 (Nov 24, 2008 4:43 pm) I've got an MT MZ5 (2006) and it sure stumps me off the top of my head what the problem would be causing what you were told. I don't like how my hand motions, shifting to 1st gear, can inadvertently cause me to turn of the climate control. But the radio is further away from the shifter than the HVAC.... I'll be interested to see if any helpful comments emerge (I know this one isn't!)

Thanks for the feed back whobodym.   I think I may have misunderstood the salesperson on the phone. At first he asked me about whether I had automatic climate control. I was confused by the question and said I had automatic transmission. He then told me he would ask around for me and that I should check online.   After I posted I searched and found this link http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/appguide/2007/Mazda/Mazda5.html   and on the link it said that   Premium Kit 99-7509 2007 Mazda Mazda5 (models with manual climate) # - Major Modifications may be Required    Perhaps there is an issue with the dash kit and manual climate controls.   Thanks again for the feedback.   Gideon Replies to this message: whobodym (Nov 25, 2008 10:09 pm)

Replying to: blynmazda5 (Nov 24, 2008 6:17 pm) Ah, you figured it out better than I did. Our 5 has Auto Climate Control (Touring model, not Sport). The 3 big circular HVAC dial/buttons might be a larger/different size than the manual HVAC. And ours has a 4th little rectangular black button, for the ambient temperature display, so the slot at the bottom of the HVAC control panel is different too.   Do you suppose the kit you're reading about has a more durable finish than the Mazda silver stuff? Ours already looks a little scuffed after only 2 years.
