I have a 92 MX-3 GS with AT and 108,000 miles on it . The trans works great for now. What are the most common problems / Fixes with the AT in the MX-3 ?:oops:

Slipping, failure without warning, erratic shifting.... most all caused by overheating. Add an aftermarket tranny cooler, sooner the better. Also change the fluid and filter often ( I do it every or at the most every other oil change).

Do a search on tranny coolers, also there are several recent threads, scroll down a few threads you cant miss them.

Add to the list bad synchros, weak clutchpacks... again all caused by heat stress

shawn, u don't answer emails, but ur here posting about a car you don't have anymore, lol...

none of which are in any of my threads, lol...

also when you get the tranny fulid changed add so lucus transmission oil stablizer the stuff works great it'll protect the seals and give the gears a little extra lube

Any automatic is going to burn the fluid and cause pre-mature wear if the piss is driven out of it (what i assume most people are doing right before their hold lite begins to blink and their tranny dies) Just be easy on a 13 year old car...

I also might add it is VERY SLOW lol

The torque converters are known to die fairly often
