POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I PURCHASED A 1995 MAZDA 626 IN NOVEMBER OF 1998. THE MONTH AFTER A PURCHASED IT I STARTED TO HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. NOW AGAIN I AM STARTING TO HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO GET A NEW TRANSMISSION. I HAVE READ THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME TYPE OF PROBLEMS WITH THEIR 626. IT SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT. ALONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM THEIR ALSO SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE OXYGEN SENSOR I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 2 ALREADY. I THINK THIS CAR IS A MAJOR PIECE OF JUNK AND SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE MARKET. TS

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
FOR THE LAST FIVES YEARS, THE O/D LIGHT HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY FLASHING. SOMETIMES THE O/D LIGHT WOULD GO OFF AFTER A FEW DAYS TO A WEEK, AND AT OTHER TIMES WHEN WE HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE MAZDA DEALER. WHENEVER THE O/D LIGHT IS FLASHING THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO JERK HARD WHEN IN REVERSE, ON STARTUP OR WHEN THE VEHICLE SHIFTS INTO A LOW GEAR. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY INSTANCES WHERE THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO MAINTAIN IDLE ON STARTUP OR WHILE IN DRIVE. THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO RIDE THE BRAKES AND GAS UNTIL ITS ABLE TO MAINTAIN IDLE. SO FAR I HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT ONCE BY MAZDA VIA AMMCO AND THE AIRFLOW SENSOR REPLACED TWICE BY MAZDA. UPON HAVING THE SECOND AIRFLOW SENSOR REPLACED, I WAS TOLD BY MAZDA THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS FRIED AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED A SECOND TIME. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE BACK TO AMMCO (STILL UNDER THE WARRANTY FROM THE FIRST REBUILDING) THEY SAID ALL THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED WAS CELLULOID. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK OF THE VEHICLE RUNNING QUITE WELL, THE O/D LIGHT IS BACK ON FLASHING AND THE VEHICLE IS BACK TO ITS JERKING WAYS.*AK
