Automatic Power antenna only 3/4 effective by [email protected]
My 2001 mazda miata mx-5 came with the power antenna. When having it detailed, the shop left it up when run through the wash, and broke it. They fixed it for free and it worked fine for a month or so. Now, it goes up perfectly, but leaves one full link up when it stops. Any ideas?

driving question, re oversteering by ~Mike Hollywood
Hi, Suppose you're driving on asphalt. In a rear wheel drive car like the miata, if you go into a turn too fast, and the back starts to slide, what's the safest way to correct? I'm pretty sure you want to stay off the brakes because that would throw more weight forward and lighted rear traction...

Hurray! Another year of fun! by Eric Baber
My 16-year old MX-5 needed its MOT a month ago (MOT being the UK test every car has to undergo every year to ensure it's safe). Due to a move it's been sitting in front of my house for that entire month looking glum. I finally got it tested yesterday and it passed, first time, with flying...

New top. by XS11E[_3_]
I'm less that thrilled with my new top, yesterday I found the rear window was coming unglued, the same problem that "mdginzo" posted Aug. 8th. Mine lasted from 9/6/07 to 9/10/07 or maybe not, I noticed it last night but it could have begun separating sooner than that? Robbins is sending a new...
