| | 626 Transmission FAQ |
 | | Despite Mazda's recurring efforts to create a sports-sedan image for the 626, which would seem to demand a stick shift, most of them went out the door with automatic transmissions, and judging by message boards, mailing lists, and my personal correspondence, a lot of them are coming back in the door with transmission problems. |
 | | Mazda's first four-speed automatic, the G4A-EL is a mostly-electronic transmission (hence the "EL") with three shift solenoids, a lockup solenoid, a vane-type pump, and a throttle cable. |
 | | Dan Lam's collection of Letters from Happy Mazda Owners was, of course, nothing of the kind, but it did represent a wide spectrum of opinion, from irritation to disgust; it seems to be down now, but we preserve the link as a memorial of sorts. |
