Well almost owner.....my wife and I are going to be getting our new (new to us anyway) ride on Tues. We are pretty excited about it with all that we have read regarding the MZ5. Any info about any trouble I can expect with a 2008 MZ5 that I should know about?

 

Power steering is on recall, make sure that it has been done. You may experience shimmy under heavy braking at highway speeds, my opinion is cheap rotors, replaced mine and problem solved, or have them turned if possible. Inner tire wear on the rears due too much negative camber from the factory. Some say get a set of tires with a higher UTOQ rating, I say get the SPC adjustable rear camber links and adjust to -1 camber and 0 tow. That's all I can think of for now, I don't think there is much else... good luck and enjoy your 5, I know we do...

 

As luck would have it I am replacing the tires that are on it right now and that will be something that I will bring up at the shop......thanks.
