Replying to: vg33e power (Oct 22, 2008 9:59 am)  And I, totally, agree with what you said about all the electronic assist systems. Not once have I needed it on my 5. If you have a great handling car and are a good, cautious driver, then there's no need for them, in my book. I think such systems are just scapegoats for bad driving. And I think they're counterproductive since it would give people a false sense of security and dull their sense of urgency and care when driving their cars. (However, I don't feel the same about ABS or Airbags. They're a necessity!)

Replying to: vg33e power (Oct 22, 2008 2:11 pm)  I'm currently driving a Nissan Sentra courtesy car as my Mazda5's at the Body Shop right now. I did not realize how good the 5's handling was until now compared to the Sentra. I also feel it's pretty tight inside and the CVT to me feels and sounds quite Weird! I can't wait to get back my 5. About the only thing I like about the Sentra compared to the 5 is the manual wiper with intermittent duration adjustment but other than that I'll take my 5. |

Has anyone experienced an odd humming sound followed by a sort of noise closing a valve or flap after turning off your vehicles. This sound seems to come from the passenger's front area underneath the hood and the whole thing last about a good 10-seconds after turning off the vehicle. It happens all the time and everytime, and it is not the humming sound that the steering motor makes. This noise/sound is present after turning off the engine. Any clues or ideas of what it may be? or Has anyone experienced this sound?

I just test drove a mazda5 and I really liked the configuration of the vehicle but I found the interior lacking (on the leather edition) and it felt like I could feel every crack in the pavement. I thought the acceleration was fine and the handling - do you think changing the tires would help with the road feel?
