Questions About 1996 Mazda B2300’s Transmission

  • What can I tow in a Mazda? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small.

Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Mazda's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
