No previous transmission problems, tranni oil is clear, only 78000 miles. The shifter feels like its loose, no noise, smoke nothing, driving fine then boom.
What could it be and how much to fix? Thank you.Not changing gears on my 1995 Mazda 626?
Maybe the cowl which allows the transmission to shift out of park is broke. The cowl is usually located in the steering wheel.
Your shifter cable may have called it quits as well. Take it to a mechanic - the parts shouldn't be too expensive (no more than $100 for both).Not changing gears on my 1995 Mazda 626?
alot and if your having trouble shifting only into park, then you have a parking brake problem. The boom you mentioned though sounds like your gonna need alot more work on your car now though. Flip it perhaps? Or did we drop the transmission? Or maybe grind one the gears in the tranny to dust?
transmissions go out. they get old. Transmissions can be fine one day and then the next you'll get in and there will be nothing there. I know from experience. In every used vehicle I have ever had my husband has had to change the transmission. And we've had 5 used vehicles in two years. If you aren't that mechanically smart, get it to a repair shop and have it checked out. There is only so much a person over the internet can tell you.
This is the most awesome auto site on the web. Try the repair /
troubleshooting section for your year and model. They tell you what might be wrong, and how to fix anything that is. They also
sell parts, and you can get a good idea if a shop is ripping you off
on parts prices if you can't do it yourself. Good luck!
