MAZDA Transmission FAQ
The more you know about your vehicle’s parts and routine vehicle service, the easier it will be to keep your car in the best possible shape. Here are your top Mazda transmission questions answered.
- What is a Transmission? The transmission is part of the vehicle’s powertrain, which is the system that makes the car move. Your transmission is used to switch between gears, so your engine is never performing at too high an RPM, or revolutions per minute.
- How is an Automatic Transmission Different from a Manual? Most vehicles today have automatic transmissions unless they’re performance or serious off-road cars. In the past, manual transmissions were the standard and required the driver to shift through the gears. Now the car will perform the shifting for you.
- What Kind of Service Does My Transmission Need? Similar to other systems with fluids, the transmission fluid in your vehicle will need to be flushed occasionally to remove any dirt or build-up. This helps to prevent grinding and overheating. Your transmission filter, pan, and the gasket may all need to be repaired or replaced over time.
- How Often Should I Schedule Transmission Service? The transmission on your Mazda will need a fluid change around every 90,000 miles, depending on what kind of driving you do.
