tell me one car which auto tranny doesnt suck? some old cars '50-60's had bulletproof trannies, but these days theyre all aluminum, cheaply assembled. Id advise manual tranny swap...or....BPT TIME!!!!Originally posted by 992mmx3:
Mazda automatic trannies suck.
I had a 1984 Honda Accord with 291,000 on the original automatic before I traded her in (my dad bought it new and gave it to me at 220,000). I TRIED like hell for 70,000 miles to kill that car and it just wouldnt die. Mazda automatics definately suck but any automatic, even a crappy Mazda one, can last a pretty long time by simply changing the fluid and filter on schedule and adding a tranny oil cooler (how many automatic owners even change the fluid ONCE in its lifetime? I would bet not many, but they'll complain quite loudly when it craps out at 80,000 miles). I have 137,000 on my Mx3 original tranny, and a lot of people dont even get that out of their original engine, so I cant complain.tell me one car which auto tranny doesnt suck?
