5th

Bought a 2015 3 i Sport last month, 60k on the clock. On the way home from from the Toyota dealer where I bought it, it popped out of 5th gear. This happens nearly every time I drive it now if I linger in 5th, but not every time. I've taken it to the Mazda dealer twice. They haven't been able to...

I was wondering if anyone has ran into this same issue before as it appears to be a design problem with the G66M-R shifter cable sleeve: The problem began yesterday when I noticed trouble shifting into 1st gear at an intersection when the light turned green. After a few tries, the car...

Hello all, Was hoping to tap into the community knowledge... My Mazda3 with automatic transmission, started vibrating when auto shifting from 4th to 5th gear (as seen on the dashboard). If you've ever driven stick-shift, vibration (stuttering, jerkiness) feels identical to the one one would...

You know the feeling, trying to open the hatch with your hands full. Wishing that you had the same options as a BMW, Mercedes or even some Fords that can open -and close- the trunk remotely. No one has tried to install those linear electric actuators yet?

Has anyone figured this out? I couldn't figure it out at first when I got the grind until recently. I have a fast off ramp that I end up in 2nd and then at speed by the time I merge so I just go 5th / 6th. Any other car I have had there (a 1996 Saturn SC2, a 1998 240SX SE, a 2006 BMW M3 ZCP)...

Hi, just got a 6speed 5dr hatchback (2013 2.0 Skyactiv). Is it normal to have 5th gear vibrate/buzz at exactly 2000 rpm when both accelerating and decelerating(or coasting with 5th gear engaged) ? If I put my hand on the stick, I can feel like engine is lugging. What's odd is that the same...

Hi all. I'm kinda new to manual transmissions so maybe I'm doing something wrong, but this seems to only happen occasionally, and I can't reproduce it if I try, and it only seems to happen on 3rd (rarely) and 5th (often) gears. Might happen on other gears too but if so not often enough for me to...

Hey guys So something really weird happened while driving today. My speed 3 was driving fine and then I was at a light and tried to shift into 1st gear and it physically couldnt shift it. Finally I was able to force it into first gear. I had similar trouble with 3rd gear and it would just...

Seriously. Why is the 5th gear manual tranny geared (including final drive ratio effect) so much shorter than the 5th gear in the automatic? Especially 6th gear? I'm discovering this is not just a Mazda phenomenon, but several manufacturers of cosnudmer sedans have short top gears with the...

I have a 2010 Mazda3 Touring with 250miles. I noticed that the 5th gear grinds on high gear. Heres what happens; going 80mph, i take it out of 5th gear and put it in neutral,wait till the RPM goes back to 1k , I then step on the clutch all the way and shift into 5th gear -this is when i get...
