Hello all,
Longtime reader, first time posting.
2006 Mazda5

Recently replaced head gasket AND head.
The replacement of gasket and head seem to have gone ok. Had to replace the Mass Airflow Sensor. Don't know why it failed. After engine was put together it would turn over. Run for .5 second then die. I disconnected the MAS connection, started right up. But would run rough. After 2 failed NEW sensors it stayed running.
Ok. Enough about that.
When I went to back it out it had to get to 3k rpms to engage reverse. When i shifted to drive, the gear number in dash went to 1. Then real quickly to 3, then 4. Staying in 4.
The AT light came on. No codes though.
Needless to say, the car doesn't take off well in 4th. I shut it off. Restart it. Goes to 1 when i shift to drive. I hit the accelerator and it quickly shifts to 3 then 4. In seconds.
Fluid level was fine. Dirty though. So i changed filter and replaced with proper fluid and filter from O'Reilly's. Checked soleniods for continuity and such. All checked out good.
Started back up. Same issue.
Wth!! Ran it in reverse for 15 feet or so. Lurching and all. Put in drive. Again with the gear 4. Pushed accelerator anyway. Parked it back in repair space.
Anyone have this issue ever happen to their Mazda5 or any Mazda with a 2.3L and auto transmission?
