#2376 of 2476 626 transmission problems by charb Apr 28, 2008 (8:15 am)
My son just purchased a 2000 626 V6 with a 5-speed manual transmission. I have been looking just so I can feel good that he found a reliable car, and find all of this negative info about this vehicle's transmission problems. Just wondering...are the problems I read about associated with all transmissions in this car or just the automatic? Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this for me.

Replying to: charb (Apr 28, 2008 8:15 am) I had the same question when I bought my used 2001 626 V6. My Mazda dealer (not where I bought the car) service manager told me it was just the automatic tranny.
#2378 of 2476 Mazda 626 diesel don't start after long running by a2sistemi Apr 29, 2008 (1:00 am)
I have a Mazda 626 2.0tdi dated 1998, over 300.000Km Is an european model When the engine run for a long time, for example 1-2 hours of highway drive,if I stop it an restart , even within only some seconds, it never start again. The first times it happen, I need to wait 5-10 minutes, now I have to pass a intere night to cool down , and then restart. The only way to start the engine when is hot, is a starter spray (wurth fast start) in the air input (removing air filter). A garage man says that is the tank pump that have a pressure to low. This can be, but I don't understand ho can the engine run for hours at 130km/h without problems, and stopping it for a second cause the no start. Any idea Thanks a lot Alberto

Replying to: charb (Apr 28, 2008 8:15 am) There are no issues with the V6 manual transmissions. I have a '99 ES V6 5 speed with 196k miles and no problems with the manual transmission. The only problem I had was with the clutch master cylinder seals, which failed at about 130K and clutch pedal sank to the floor, making the car undriveable. . But this is a relatively inexpensive repair requiring either the cylinder rebuild or a new cylinder which costs about $ 100.

Replying to: kburkes (Apr 14, 2006 9:19 am) Have the same issues with my 99LX and now my 2002 ES. Doesnt make a cuckoo noise, but rattles like crazy. Both car did/do the same thing. I agree with another poster that the strut towers seem to be the culprit. It is an annoying noise. Replies to this message: skibry1 (May 10, 2008 8:09 pm)

#2383 of 2476 99 ES V6 Surge at Idle by gyates May 21, 2008 (9:47 am)
My daughter's 99 V6 has developed a surge when idling with the a/c on. Idle jumps from normal 750 range to 1700 (and as high as 2000) as the compressor cycles. No CEL is on, and there has not been any recent work on the car. Anyone else experienced this? The car has approx 120k. Timing belt was replaced at 105k as recommended in the book, along with the other belts. Car runs fine otherwise, and no surge is noticed while driving, just while at idle, in gear or park.

#2384 of 2476 Re: 99 ES V6 Surge at Idle [gyates] by p100 May 22, 2008 (3:33 pm)
Replying to: gyates (May 21, 2008 9:47 am) I never experienced that with my "99 ES V6 with 198K+ miles on it. The normal idle variation with A/C compressor cycling is about 700 -1000 RPM. My car has a 5 speed manual transmission.   I believe there is an idle control valve on this car - you may have a problem in that area. Replies to this message: gyates (May 23, 2008 8:26 am)

Replying to: p100 (May 22, 2008 3:33 pm) I thought about the idle air control valve as a possibility. On my Explorer, when this part went out, the truck would just die at idle though.
