apparently the wind noise is coming from the mirrors. I was told they would be coming out with a bulletin saying that air was somehow going into the back of the mirror which s causing turbulence which travels up the window and makes it seems the door is not sealed. I will see soon if this is actually the case or if technician is just spouting crap to me.

I have had my "06" 5 in 7 times in 14 months for the cold weather crunching noises. They so far have replaced lower suspension arms, front and rear swaybar bushings, and lubed them many times. The noises are still there as bad as the car was when it was a week old and the weather turned cold. Mine will start makeing the noise at 32 Deg f, and just gets worse and worse as the temps go down. Here in WI it is -10 F this morning and I do not even want to drive it. It is embarrassing to give someone a ride in it in the winter. The dealer told me to drop it off again, but I feel like I am just waisting my time.
I never had these types of problems with any other car or my 05 Mazda 3S or 03 Mazda P5. I am totally dissgusted with Mazda on this car, and will gurantee, that I never purchase another Mazda Period.

They are some dealers in the east have offered to replace sway bars and control arms but the problem continues because they haven't applied the permanent fix.

Noisy suspension

They told me that they checked and everything was fine and that apparently the Mazda 5 has noisier suspension than any other Mazda...I think they were feeding me a line. Can anyone relate to this problem

Hi I just joined this site so I can learn more about my 2010 Mazda 5 Which I like alot by the way but I've had to seperate suspension issues myself. 1. right front clank which turned out to be the stabilizer bushing. 2. right rear similar sound that turned out to be the shock gone bad. both were fixed at the dealer free of charge. Hope this helps

My friend have the similar problem and he told me that it was due to the sway bar bushings and control arm bushings which was not changed from a long time period and after replace them he had not more noises. I think you also should check them on your drive. Good luck.
