transmission

i plan on buying a 2005 mazda 3 and i was leaning more towards the automatic. i know almost EVERYONE thinks manuals are better but as of right now im not comfortable enough drivings manuals to invest in buying one, but who knows, i might change my mind. but anyways, i know that the automatic has...

Hey guys, Looking to pick up a 2003 MSP this week with a bad transmission. I have searched and could not find the exact answer I am hoping to find. I am curious if using a MP3, or Protege5 (or any 2.0) transmission can be directly bolted in to a MSP. I have learned that both share a 22 spline...

I was driving out of town for the holidays on Dec 21, and the A/T light turned on in my 2008 Mazda 3. It's a 5-speed 2.3L, has 76K miles. I had occassionally felt it stick, or had a slightly slow gear change, in the 2 years since I bought it used, but never anything noticeable or worrisome. I...

2003 P5 2.0 MT 170k miles. The transmission has just been swapped out for a used one because one of the shaft bearing failed and damaged the gears and case beyond repair. The new transmission was apparently out of a 83k miles 2003 Mazda Protege with 2.0engine. It is possible that it was from...

I drove it the other day and then it randomly just revved up wile driving and won't go from there... Sounds like its a transmission problem.. I heard that it could be a cracked LSD. I'm not sure. Should I get a new tranny or buy the LSD and try to install it... Anyone know anything about it ...

Hey I know this might sound like a noob question but Im kind of confused on one thing. I swapped out my transmission fluid a few months ago, and I'm having my mechanic friend switch out the brake fluid on my car tomorrow. I saw on some threads that there is also clutch fluid? Someone also...

I have a Spicy MSP. I am the second owner, I have had it for 4 years and it has 102k miles on it. I just put in a new clutch and suspension. The car is in great condition. I live in the city and the thing that bothers me most is having a 5 speed to deal with. Could I or should I convert it to an...

I have an automatic/tap shift with several new parts that have been replaced in the car, including the engine, but things just aren't completely running properly yet. The car starts, but only when I put the car in neutral. Once the car has started the rpms rev up and down and fluctuate pretty...

50 miles into a 500 mile trip this weekend the trans in my 2003 Mazda 6 3.0 with added trans cooler (147K mi ) started shifting really harsh on the highway and the "AT" dash light was on. Wife says turn around - I say lets keep going. At the first stoplight 200 miles later it won't even...

Hi and thanks for opening my post. SORRY its so long but, I'm new here and maybe you can help me out with my problem. I have a 2003 Protege5 with the Automatice/Sportronic Transmission (not sure what its called). I bought this car about 4 months ago and I LOVE it, up until about 2 weeks ago when...

After having my new CX5 (AWD, Automatic) for only one week, I couldn't be any more thrilled. After an 80 mile road trip through the mountains with lots of climbing and decending, my trip computer registered 34 mpg for the entire trip. I was expecting only 30 mpg, so I hope the good mpg results...

Good News, To those who have a Scan Gauge II, I think I have figured the X-Gauge code to display the transmission fluid temperature. It took quite a bit of research; Scan Gauge's website code did not work accurately/properly. I did some beta testing today, and it looks good. I'd like others...
