If the car was 700 bucks because it had 50 million lightyears on it, the rad leaked, and the tranny was full of sawdust, then you'll be hard pressed to get simpathy from anyone. It's a sad dilusion if you think a $700 Honda will last any longer at all.
Oh, and he has an RS, not a GS. BPT swap FTW!!!!!!!111one!
Actually this is not 100% Correct. The ATX is made by JATCO which is whole owned by Mazda and Nissan before there was and Ford connection to either company. Mitshbishi joined thst joint venture and Ford also joint went they started to need FWD ATX for the North American models such as the Tempo and Tarus they were based on the Mazda design before change to a whole domestic design when they started to go to bigger displacement V-6's. The Windstar was last Ford Model that used a Mazda based ATX design which was a warranty nightmare. Ford has recently gones back to using JATCO CVT transmissions in there newer productsTunes67 wrote:Well if its an automatic.. dont hate mazda.. the damn things were designed by Ford.

DUDE THANKS ALOT!!!!!!!!! I bought the stuff and it worked!!! So Anyways I decide to just go change my tranny fluid and see what happenes, there is a bar underneath the tranny blocking part of the oil pan so i said screw it and was gonna have it done by econo...well anyways i got to 4 different places because the tranny fluid is soo black and thin that they wouldnt even touch it....So i just put in the anti slip until i can go some where else tomorrow now that is looks better more reddish in color..haha and the car is running good, no slipping and she hits 4th gear now.=) YAY IM SO HAPPY!!!!mowambi wrote:Just a recomendation... Try this for the 12$ it may cost you. Goto a car parts store and ask for a bottle of Lucas anti slip... And put it in your tranny fluid. i did that to a grand am at 120k miles, not only did it fix the problem ive tried to kill the car for another 40k miles and it just kept goign and going til one day it blew a headgasket as i was pounding on it on the way to work :). It always blows up on the worse day....
