Questions About 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my 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.
  • How much can my Mazda tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my MX-5 Miata's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Mazda MX-5 Miata’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 MX-5 Miata leak transmission fluid? Yes. Mazda MX-5 Miata 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 does Mazda MX-5 Miata transmission repair? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for MX-5 Miata transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Should I avoid driving my Mazda MX-5 Miata if there is a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your MX-5 Miata 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.
