transmission 5/6 problems by callmerayz

Just bought my CX7 $23,500 2wd-sport. I also own a Murano, and I can notice many simularitys.
The big thing thus far that I am disapointed.
1) Driving on the interstate 70mph through rolling hills the transmission jerks while trying to decide if it should change.
2) I thought with all the turbo advances that turbo lag would not be noticeable, but it is. I'm told it will improve? I have 400 miles so far.

The engine is still green, and I'm sure the transmission's adaptive logic hasn't yet "learned" your driving style.

Juice, can you tell me more about "adaptive logic"? I didn't know the CX7 had it. How does it work and what does it do?

I was hoping that was the case. Great SUV just a little slow. LOL.
TUNING anyone. I want to buy a chip, and xenon lights.

Most modern trannies have that, I don't have information that is particular to the CX7, maybe someone else here does?

Good idea about establishing separate sub-fora, but I think you need to change the title of this forum: Mazda CX-7 Transmission Problems.
 
People who are exploring the CX-7 and trying to gain useful information will immediately get the wrong idea that the CX-7 has major problems with the transmission, which is not the case.
 
Perhaps retitle that forum to "Mazda CX-7 Transmission - General Discussions"?

Transmission Adaptive Logic by vbbuilt

Well, since Edmunds reorganized these fora, guess I'll post my question again.
 
Someone mentioned that the CX-7 has Adaptive Logic. I don't know what that is. Can someone explain how it works and it's advantages?
 
Thanks, Vince.

Adaptive Logic transmissions are those that learn your driving habits, e.g. speeding up, sudden stops, long distance speeds and moderate speed. It has a sort of fuzzy logic capability to better tune the onboard computer on how to save gas and how to set the emmissions management.
Driver-Type Recognition
Environmental Recognition
Driving-Situation Recognition

 
All can be explained on this link: Adaptive Transmission Control
It's extensive in the definition, but it answers tons of questions!
Still not certain if the CX-7 has adaptive or not...

Based on the Mazda web pages...
 
6-SPEED SPORT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
 
Experience the best of both worlds -- the convenience of automatic and the authority of manual. In automatic mode, sensors and internal algorithms adapt shifting logic based on your driving style. The Sport AT shift gate allows quick manual shifting when you want to take a more active role in the CX-7's performance. In either mode, six forward ratios keep the engine in the sweet-spot on acceleration and deliver smooth and relaxed straight away cruising.
