What’s the problem with my Mazda MX5 gearbox?
We are having problems with my Mum’s MK1 MX5 – the gearbox/gearchanges seem to be very stiff, especially in the cold. The gears just do not seem to slot into place easily. Once everything is up to working temperature, it seems fine.
What to do if your Mazda transmission is not shifting?
If you own a Mazda with an automatic transition that is not shifting properly or not shifting at all, check the transmission fluid level immediately. Transmission won’t engage. Check engine light comes. Mazda won’t move when in Drive or Reverse.
Why does my Mazda MX 5 spin at higher RPM?
Assuming you have the manual transmission, the higher RPM during highway cruising is not a problem at all. The gear ratios are built that way and ultimately give the MX-5 very responsive throttling; as a result, the engine loves to spin at higher RPMs when cruising at highway speeds.
Are there any transmission problems with a Mazda 5R55N?
Mazda vehicles that use a 5R55N 5-speed automatic transmission have a fairly common problem with failures to engage 4th and 5th gear. In some cases, this will be followed by erratic and delayed changes in other gears. This issue can be intermittent or constant, and initially, the problem will only occur when the car is cold.
How do you change the gears on a Miata?
Shift your manual gearshift to neutral. Set the parking brake lever and turn the engine off. If your Miata has an automatic transmission, move it to park, turn the engine off and set the parking-brake lever. Grasp the shift knob firmly. Rotate the knob from right-to-left. Continue turning the shift knob. This unscrews it from the gearshift post.
Are there any problems with my Miata shocks?
My shocks are fine, no leaks, etc. The control arm bushing could be dirty or worn and needs cleaning or replacement. In my Miata, the bushing itself was in good shape and required no replacement. The mechanic cleaned both the right and the left bushing. I paid for no parts.
How do you turn off the parking brake in a Miata?
Shift your manual gearshift to neutral. Set the parking brake lever and turn the engine off. If your Miata has an automatic transmission, move it to park, turn the engine off and set the parking-brake lever.
Why does my MX-5 Miata make a vibrating noise?
Some noise is common with semi-metallic brake pads. Be certain to use new brake hardware (clips and springs) when replacing brake pads. Changing to a different brand or compound of pads may help. A vibrating noise may be caused by calipers not sliding properly on the mounting brackets.
