Why is Your 2008 CX-7’s Transmission So Important?

It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Mazda CX-7 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Mazda CX-7 transmission trouble you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your CX-7 at all.

2008 Mazda CX-7 Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mazda's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. 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 CX-7’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your CX-7 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my CX-7's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Mazda CX-7’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Mazda. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Mazda CX-7 leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mazda CX-7, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who can fix my  Mazda CX-7 transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for CX-7 transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Mazda CX-7 if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your CX-7 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.
