#18 of 67 Manual Transmission on a 2007 Fusion by cldfuzn25 Aug 07, 2007 (3:40 pm)
I have been having issues shifting my car (which is a manual trans) into reverse. It locks and then i have to roll my car forward or backwards (thats if i am lucky and on a incline of sort) just to get it to slide into gear. The gears are very notchy, and sometimes very hard to get into gear.. i have driven stick shifts all my life and i have never come across this. I took it to the dealer and all they did was lube it up... which didnt help... they said they cant find the problem... any suggestions?

#19 of 67 broken antenna by alc10 Aug 08, 2007 (4:46 pm)
While backing up, a tree branch caught the antenna and snapped it off. The mast is OK. What broke is a small nut that the mast screws into. One side is threaded for the mast and the other has a screw thread that goes into another fitting. The break is at the top of the threads on the middle fitting. Anyone know how to disassemble the black plastic mount on the roof to get at the rest of the parts, or any advice on how to proceed?
#20 of 67 Milan AWD Maintenance by joelamp Aug 09, 2007 (11:33 am)
I have a new 07 Milan Premier V6 AWD and have been familiarizing myself with the maintenance schedule, but I cannot find anything in the maintenance schedule pertaining to the AWD system. If this car is based on the Mazda6, then does it have the same AWD system as the Escape/Mariner/Tribute and should the same maintenance schedule be followed?

Replying to: cldfuzn25 (Aug 07, 2007 3:40 pm) I have owned 4 different man trans cars. a 1997 Escort Wagon(parents hand me down ) 1998 Escort ZX2, an 02 Protege5 and an 07 Mustang.   All of those cars occasionally required me to put the car in first then let up on the clutch a smidgen before they would shift into reverse. The Mustang requires this the least and I think it has something to do with the design of the trans and the synchros.   And if you are observant, you will have noticed that all the cars I listed but for the Mustang had Mazda designed Manual Trans. So it might just be a Mazda thing.   Mark.

Replying to: ajever1 (Sep 06, 2007 8:50 am) Yeah, I had the same problem. It was fixed under warranty. Outside of that, my car has been absolutely outstanding.
#25 of 67 Re: External Temperature Question [tommyshoegirl] by scape2 Sep 24, 2007 (4:55 pm)
Replying to: tommyshoegirl (Jun 15, 2007 12:13 pm) Yes, mine does this too. At one point it read 107 in my garage and it was 85 outside! Took about 5 minutes for the sensor to adjust to the outside temp once I got going..
