    2010 Mazda5 AT Shifting problems

    Car novice here so pardon the naivet'. I've got a 2010 5 AT with ~26,500 miles on it. A couple months ago, I noticed the transmission seemed to be slow to shift when accelerating between 40-60MPH and then again from 60-80MPH. It also feels like the transmission "stumbles" when downshifting...

    Hey guys. I've been having a whirling/knocking noise ever since I got my MSP. It gets louder and faster as I accelerate, louder and slower as I decelerate, and just loud as I turn right and left. Anyways, I thought it was bad tires, so I changed the tires (they needed to be changed anyway)...
