And for the record, the manual in the car is for an automatic transmission, not a 5spd. I just now wonder if this is coincidental due to the repair of the steering rack and weak bushing of the stick shift. Noise reduction systems were added, and electronic tuning, followed by computerized controls in certain high-end installations like the Blaupunkt TQR-07. Some say it could be the fluid reservoir (how empty it is) or this spring that is rubbing on another component. I talked to mechanics and read on-line about it. With each release, it creaks like an old hinge as if it's trying to get back into position. Well, now I have been battling a creaky clutch peddle. I barely made it back to the repair shop where it was discovered that the bushing had come apart. When I drove the car back to work after the repair, the stick shift turned to jello. To eliminate this concern, a coating has been applied to the inner surface of the tripod joint case to improve wear resistance. What I didn’t know was the build quality of the interior materials as well as the sporty handling even in base models. The vibration may be caused by wear on the inner surface of the tripod joint case (inner side of front driveshaft). It’s styling was so bland it was nearly as invisible as a Corolla. Turns out, the entire steering rack and everything that goes with it had to be replaced. Reputation: 22462 Advertisements Sadly the Mazda Protege was never on my radar in the 1990s. We had bad snow and ice and my car's left front tire hit an ice rut pretty good. My car was involved in an "accident" at the end of December 2008. I had new rear struts put on, alignments, tightening of the suspension, etc. The noise almost completely goes away when I turn the wheel slightly off center to the right. The noise gets louder when I turn the wheel just slightly off center to the left. I hear the noise slightly while driving straight ahead. About a year ago (early 2008), when backing up especially, the car would make a stress then pop noise on the right side and towards the middle underside of the car. I have a 97 Protege LX 5 speed that recently developed a noise. My 2000 Mazda Protege lx has had some "major surgery" lately.
