The passive shoulder belts are preferable to airbags, and the lack of the more-recently developed ABS hasn't hurt us yet Mazda brakes have always had very good feedback and modulation. Our LX has power windows, locks, mirrors and sunroof, auto trans, and power steering and brakes. It's nimble, comfortable, peppy without danger, secure in snow, reliable and economical (35 mpg hwy), and good-looking. With this kind of care, and gentle driving, this car remains reliable. The dealer service for the first 120,000 miles included not only oil changes every 3k, but thorough seat/door/hinge/latch/body lube as well as all the mfr-recommended stuff. The sunroof and windows have developed a lot of drag, so that the sunroof can't be driven by its motor anymore (but I can use the manual crank) and the window motors strain to raise and lower the glass, especially in cold weather. Poor bodyshop work after a sideswipe collision in '93 caused rust in the right quarter panel and rear strut towers. Horn switch isolating foam collapsed last night (which led me to this site.) I made the added-foam repair today and we'll see whether I need to go spend the $14 for the horn switch assembly. After a few months with duck tape around the cracks (which helped), the $50 replacement from NAPA made all of that go away. Radiator leaked replaced with all-metallic unit ~120000.ĬV joints and half-shafts replaced ~165000 miles.Īir intake hose (from the airbox/mass-flow sensor to the intake manifold) began to crack and leak with age and heat at ~180k, resulting in stumbling and stalling, reduced fuel economy, and causing the transmission to hunt down to second speed much of the time. Peppy, great handling, does well in rain or snow. I keep it tuned up, so I consistently get 30 mpg city, and often get 40 mpg on the highway. The original mileage estimates were 23-33 city and 30-42 highway. General Comments:īest car I have ever owned! Hardly any mechanical problems, and always starts immediately. Overall, my Protege been fantastic mechanically, and the interior and paint look great. And yes, my current mechanic has replaced their valve cover gasket. Needless to say, I'm never going there again. I don't know what they did, but it's leaked since I took it there for a new valve cover gasket, and they claim it isn't their fault. There is a slight oil leak now that my current mechanic can't locate, due to some careless work done by another shop. Now I know that when the engine has a rough idle, it's time to tighten the plugs. Each time I found it in the engine compartment or on the ground, and just put it back in. In the 17 years that I have owned it, it's happened 3 times. Occasionally my 1993 Mazda Protege will throw a spark plug. ![]()
