Description of the problem | I brought my mazda 626 lx on 6/1/01 with about 33,000 miles, since then i had to replace my timing belt at 44,000 due to the tension pin. Meanwhile, i have made numberous amounts of repairs to this car. At about around 70,000 miles my transmission started having problems. Sounded like it was making a popping noise and the car began jerking when under 30 mph. Now the o/d light flashes on and off and my car starts smoking.*ak |
