transmission

I am hoping to get some guidance on a problem that I am having with my 2007 CX-9. The problem occurs when I am cruising just below 60 mph and around 1500 rpm in 6th gear. When I apply the gas lightly to accelerate, the vehicle seems to "stutter" right around that 60 mph mark, the car seems to...

I had and issue starting my car in park. It would sometimes start (mostly not) but if I put it in neutral it worked everytime. I bought a neutral saftey switch and put it in. During the install the shaft that the NSS goes on came out of bit but I was able to slide it back in pretty easily...

I was going down my road today and just put new plug wires on my MSP, I stop at a stop sign and go to accelerate pretty rapidly, I got to about 4k rpm and the car felt like it slipped out of first gear, not thinking nothing off it ( thought it was a one in a million thing, never happens ) went...

I bought a Protege MP3 from a friend. I replaced almost the entire front end when I still noticed a grinding noise. I asked my friend and he said he had put a 626 manual transmission in it. I did some research and found out the 626 axel is about a 1/4 of an inch longer than a stock Protege axel...

I've had my Mazda Protege for 8 years now. I love this little car. Recently, I had the following happen to me, on two separate occasions, while on the highway. I would be driving along when the car would spontaneously shift into 3rd gear, and the battery light would come on. The first time...

Hi guys, Do you know where I can get Mazda 2 workshop manual from? I looked everywhere (I think) and no biscuit. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I never post here, because I'm a ninja with the search button, and I'm a mechanic/tuner by trade, except this time I'm stumped, and everyone I ask had no actual experience with swapping non sportshift autos into 2002.5 and up cars equipped with it. My problem started with a noise under...

Alright guys so I've been doing a lot of searching on the forums to find exactly what my problem might be and it seems like its been addressed but not really answered. There are two things that happen in my car that make me think its either a clutch issue or one of my forks. It usually happens...

I have a new (to me) 2010 CX-7 GT - when I have the headlights set on auto, during daylight hours I can barely see the Nav screen or anything on the dashboard! I have already turned the brightness up as far as it will go... but I have to turn off the light switch to be able to see the dash...

Hello all, The last few weeks I've noticed that sometimes when I am braking to slow down the car to make a turn, it seems and sounds like the engine is racing as if I had it in neutral and was putting my foot on the gas. This is a 2013 automatic touring in Drive. Has anyone else noticed...

Can someone please provide me with a link to download a free (truly free) repair manual for a 1998 Mazda Protege? Thank you in advance.

Got a (hopefully) quick question for the gurus. Just bought a brand new 2012 CX-9 GT. Within 2 hours of purchase the wrench light came on, TCS off light illuminated, and cruise control stopped working. The car had diminished power and inability to accelerate. Dealer says a blown brake fuse...

I am selling my 2003 Mazda Protege 5 wagon/hatchback. It has a clean Carfax with no accidents (link below) and 113,603 miles. I have owned it for a year now and experienced no mechanical issues. I replaced the brakes, all 4 spark plugs, air filter, and cleaned the EGR/MAF/throttle-body and fuel...

hey i just purchased a 2002 P5, car is in excellent shape, (first P5) and i noticed then with the car in neutral, clutch in or out, the idle is fine, but when i put the car into gear, the idle jumps between 1000 and 1500, with the clutch pressed in, car drives fine and has no running issues, as...

I've noticed when I drive my 2013 CX 5 AWD and am starting out from a stop that the mpg reading is very low which i realize is normal. As I accelerate with the speed increasing I can feel the transmission starting to shift so I take my foot off the gas a little and the mpg reading goes up. Are...

Like title says my passenger motor mount is out for sure, probably the others as well and i think i'll just replace all 3. I'm not heavy into performance mods or anything just want something that will end vibration, last a long time, and not super expensive. So what do you guys recommend? I...

Hey all, I've searched around the forums and havent had much luck with this question. I have a 2002 Protege5 5speed, the transmission is junk. I went to the local junkyard and purchased a 1994 Mazda 626 transmission, which is pretty much the same as a G Series Ford Probe transmission. I...

Hey guys, I got my msp at the end of the summer and I love the car, but I would like to get some more power (shooting for 5.5s 0-60) nothing crazy just to keep up with some of my friends. I am still kind of new to the mechanics of cars so I was wondering what I could do to achieve this without...
