It's been reliable and we are very happy with it. Just wanted to get an idea how much more life this car has in it and other people's experiences. Other minor issue was I let the belts go too long had them but didn't put them on and they broke I'm pretty sure radiator was at that age anyways.


Other item was minimal, Intake Boot I change oil myself every 5k and did Transmission fluid change about a year ago. So far, I have a small rust spot on the driver side rear wheel well which I will be fixing soon. In general this car served us well and it seems like it should have many more years of reliable service once I get the Timing belt done and change the shocks.


Last edited: Oct 17, Mine just rolled over k and is running like a champ, just maintain it and keep an eye on potential developing problems and you will be fine. Actually, I forgot about one area of concern. Recently the Cat cover was rattling so I removed the upper cover. Noticed that just like my MPV, exhaust looks very rusty bolts look horrible. Also, flex pipe looks like it's about to go.


I noticed that on my MPV I'm very limited on exhausts. I would like to get something T Stainless steel when and if the exhaust goes. I don't really care about performance or sound, just long lasting. What are my options when I get to that point for Protege? Actually MPV as well The 1. Dam these cars rust fast. Other than that, swaybar end links gets worn fast.


There's also the EGR valve that become defect and it affects your idle. Mazda released a new model a few years ago with a coolant pass. They seem more reliable. Mazda protege5 is a small, reliable hatchback with a surprising amount of storage space. I like the turn-radius and the good range of visibility, it also gets mpg. I bought mine used but since have put over k miles on it and have had no issues.


Nothing much to say about it. Nothing is to be said about this subject I do not know much about cars I just know it takes gas to move it and takes a battery that can sometimes die it gets me from point A to point B and I love driving my car and not having to ride my bike everywhere or walking.


Very beautiful and dependable. My Mazda is old. But it is very dependable. That is what I like best about it. And it takes very little gas. The smooth ride of a Mazda. They tend to have gasket and radiator problems but it gets great mileage. The car has great control and is very comfortable to drive. Although finding tires for the car can be hard sometimes because of its size. I have had to have the radiator and belts because the car overheated and blew up the radiator. But it is by far my best and most favorite car.


Mazda Protege 5 is a great value for younger drivers seeking a long distance car with space! Reliability: vehicle has had no issues other than an 02 sensor going out, and a solenoid issue.


However, other than general maintenance, the car has been wonderful. Has a minor leak, however. This is at k miles. Performance is great in the manual transmission.


The car feels sporty, but gets good gas mileage. I've been able to take the car to and from mountain trips with ease with full camping gear and a friend along with me.


Comfort is good; The ride isn't the greatest, but it's okay for long distance trips and doesn't wear you out. You will feel some of the tires and the road but overall I think that' due to the somewhat sporty tires. It is by no means uncomfortable, however. I love the ride personally because like a car that I can feel. The car features a manual transmission, 2. The car does not come with ABS and i wish it did, however, it drives well. It lasted over , and it's still going.


We have put over , miles on our Mazda protege and it has never let us down. If you perform regular maintenance it will last you forever. Changing oil, rotating tires, replace air filter. The only problem we have had was the radiator had to be replaced but overall it's a fantastic car. It's a good car with very little drawbacks. I've had the car for roughly 8 years now and I never have had any major problems. More recently I've been forced to do maintenance that's a bit pricey but that's due to the car being so old.


My biggest complaint is that the car is a little bit slow with its acceleration. The seats are comfortable but when it gets hot I feel like the inside of the car feels significantly hotter than other cars.


It has enough space for 4 people to fit comfortably but can ultimately fit 5. Overall it's a good car and has lasted a pretty long time without having major issues or problems. The more miles it has, the more likely and larger amount of oil it likes to burn. The car is very dependable.


Rides very smooth and hasn't left my stranded. The bad. It burns oil, maybe a quart every miles. The clutch and pedal are odd compared to the vast majority of others I have driven. The bumper clips are not very strong. Ac compressor belt makes noise when ac on. Mazda protege review. Mazda protege is a very reliable car. I have only had it for a couple months, but it is ran like a dream. We had to fix the ac fan and the wheel bearings but they were previous owner issues that had to be fixed.


It is also pretty decent with gas mileage. I was doing round trips of about miles and it was reliable every time. The ac unit is not super reliable but the heat really works. I do not know if that is just on my own personal car or if it is a model issue. It is a very reliable, nice car. It is safe and reliable. Fun to drive. Stylish for it's time. I like the safety features. The car handles well. It is stylish. Reliability is good. My Mazda Protege features a moonroof and six disc CD player.


I absolutely love my Mazda Protege. It's very comfortable and reliable. I did get to top of the line with a moonroof and everything. Only problem is interior things started to break.


It has great gas mileage and is a very reliable car. My car gets great gas mileage. I love how compact it is and the space on the inside is still enough. There is also great ease driving my mazda. It's brakes aren't exactly the most strong either.


So keep a distance from other cars while driving. I like that it's a small car and can be very speedy. It's also a stick shift which I enjoy driving. Although it does not have an aux cord port or a little cassette thing available. But it can carry 6 CD's at a time.


And it has very little horsepower, so accelerating can take a tiny bit long. Andre, the protege. It still has a lot of pep going up the pa hills. There no worn spots on the upholstery and the rugs are original and only drivers side is worn where protege tag is sewn on. One of the salesman at my car dealer asked me more than once if I were ready to sell it. His son saw the car and would like to buy it. If I somehow had to sell it I would be very unhappy it is really the only car I know.


I love it so much I gave it a name. In control of your car's power! I love my car because it is stick shift. I love being able to shift gears on my own and grab that power when I want and need it. Also when I have the clutch pushed in going downhill, it will roll faster. Love my sunroof.


Haven't had troubles or problems with my car running. The awesome storage space. Where you can let the seats down and have extra back seat space! I love the space! It's very comfortable. I do not have major issues. Only issues lie within the rack coming loose.


Poor quality but overall hands down best! Amazing protege is like a member of the family. I look out my window look. I bought this car new in and I have never had any major problems.
