Crank Pulley

Written by: lmgeary on Jun 14, 2009 03:59 PM

I have a 1995 Mazda 626 that the alternator belt makes a squeeling sound and eventually breaks. I'm told the pulley is out of alignment and it has been re-aligned. After a month or so, the squeeling starts and the same thing happens over and over. I've done some research and found that I need a new pulley. Does anyone know anything about this ???? Need to get this problem ... Read More...

I recently took my car for an oil change... while he had it up, I asked him to look at my control arms to see what was making so much noise when I turned. He said I need to replace the ball joints. I then took the car to get another opinion. This guys says to me that I need ball joints but i have to replace the entire control arm because of something to do with it being all the ...

Written by: my_old_mazda on Nov 11, 2006 06:51 PM

Hi - new here and looking for any info I can get on this problem. I have a 1995 626 LX V6 - 5 speed. When the weather is cold (under about 60F) the car starts right up. If it's warm out, or raining, the car won't start at all. I've been reading some of the posts and am wondering if it's a problem with the fuel regulator or maybe the fuel injector? I'd like to have some sort of ... Read More...

Written by: backy on Jan 14, 2006 09:48 PM

OK, I looked up the history on the Contour and Mystique on Consumer Guide, and they noted only one problem with the operation of the automatic tranny, which was that for 1995 models the transmission may go into limp-in mode due to a faulty manual lever position sensor. That was it, and no recalls involving the automatic transmission. If the automatic were very ... Read More...

It happened again and for the fifth time i brought it back to Mazda, i told them ... Read More...

Re: 626 Transmission oil change [robaltima]

Written by: anderm1 on Sep 22, 2005 07:34 PM

I have a 1995 Mazda 626 4 cyc. It has 130,000 miles and I was also told by a mechanic back when the car had 70,000 miles on it that I shouldn't change the tranny fluid either. His rational for the advise was that if the trans had a crack or leak or some other defect that the "old" trans fluid acts as glue or a filler and plugs the "leaks" and changing the fluid after not doing ...
