Hi,

After some deliberation and shopping around, my family are now the proud owners of an 08 plate Mazda 5 2.0D Sport. I got it from Romford Mazda with only 3k miles on it, and it's only 8 months old, with about £7k saving on the new price. It's in Sunlight Silver and having now covered about 200 miles I really am loving it. For such a tall vehicle it handles really well on the country lanes and I think it's a lot quieter engine and road noice wise than my Saab.

Couple of questions though:

1. I have a squeak in the back when it's cold, especially when going over rough ground or over speed humps. I think it might be the boot 'roller blind' thing, but I note it has felt on the ends to stop this. Any suggestions?

2. I want to wire in a TomTom unit, but I don't want the power lead draped over the dash. Is there any easy way to get behind the dash to where the OBDII port is so I can tap 12V off that?

Thanks

Garry

 

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Cant help with either question but glad you like the car.

Just make sure you keep an eye on the inside edges of the tyres.
