Questions About 2006 Mazda 5’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mazda's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Mazda? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 5’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your 5 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my 5's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Mazda 5 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Mazda, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Mazda 5? Yes. Mazda 5 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who can fix my  Mazda 5 transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for 5 transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Is it okay to drive a 5 with a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your 5 if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
