#4 of 44 Re: 2002 mazda 626 LX V6 [mikemichel] by misticmind May 22, 2007 (12:06 pm)
Replying to: mikemichel (Nov 20, 2006 4:17 pm) I would never buy another automatic transmission for Mazda - especially the 4 cyl. Do you know that Mazda does not even open their own transmissions - they order a used one. This shows how confident they are with their transmissions.

Replying to: dickmets (Feb 16, 2007 3:37 am) My suggestion would be to stay away from junkyards - after paying $625 for a used one and $400 to have it installed finding out it did not work was totally frustrating. I got my $625 back - but loss the $400. Same as the diagnosis test done at Mazda last week cost me $300 instead of $79.95 as the mechanic had to do all these tests and take it out for a test drive - the hours were counted and I had to pay to find out it was the transmission - and after all that - transmission is ok - it was the Transmission Range Switch which needed to be changed. Not my month..... I am keeping it because I do not owe anything on it - but I will not put the amount of money into the car like I just did. Replies to this message: babyking (Aug 16, 2007 10:41 am)
#6 of 44 mazda 626 won't go in reverse by ashleydw85 May 28, 2007 (1:32 pm)
my car crapped out on me. does anyone know what would cause it to not go in reverse without having to take it to the dealership? I think the transmission filter is clogged. But everyone tells me it's a non-serviceable transmission and that I have to take it to a dealership but I don't want to pay that much. anyone have any suggestions?

Does anyone know what would cause it to not go into reverse? Everywhere I call says it's a non-serviceable transmission and that I have to take it to a transmission shop. If anyone knows how I could fix it without going to the dealer or a shop, please let me know.

Replying to: ashleydw85 (May 28, 2007 1:32 pm) well what what i seen in my time as having one is reverse is a gear and sometimes gears are worn. i have seen people just drive frontwards because of it to keep from buying another transmission.

Replying to: misticmind (May 22, 2007 12:09 pm) Wow sounds like what I have thanks for sharing with the group, How much was the Transmission Range Switch?

Replying to: misticmind (May 22, 2007 12:06 pm) The right thing to buy in these cars is a manual transmission. The one in my '99 ES V6 has been absolutely bulletproof - still performing like new at 176k miles.

Replying to: mikemichel (Nov 20, 2006 4:17 pm) do not do it we have a 2000 626 transmission went out before 60;000 miles
#13 of 44 '98 Mazda 626 clutch/trans failure by elrlaw Nov 13, 2007 (10:04 am)
Clutch has seemingly failed at about 145,000. It failed at about 90,000 and had it replaced for $900. New mechanic in new city wants $450 to take apart transmission which he says has to be done anyway to replace clutch and then about another $750 to replace clutch. Does this make sense? Can the trans fail but not the clutch? Why not just replace the clutch? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
