Question 1

How to remove and install a automatic Transmission Assembly on Mazda 6?

Accepted Answer

The first step to taking off the transaxle is disconnecting the cables from the battery, removing the battery, and removing the tray. After that, remove the air filter housing and duct. Also, disconnect the TCM harness electrical connector at the transmission range sensor, as well as the ground straps and bolts securing the electrical harness to the transaxle. Detach the shift cable from the transaxle shift control arm. Then remove the transaxle cable mount fasteners and transaxle front and rear wire harness brackets. The vehicle speed sensor as well as TCM electrical connectors must be disconnected. Attach the engine support fixture to the lifting hook in the engine transaxle end. This will properly support the engine during removal. Eliminate the upper engine-to-transaxle mounting bolts, slacken the driveaxle/hub nuts and wheel lug nuts, elevate the front of the vehicle securely, and detach the wheels. To disconnect the shift cable from the transaxle, unscrew the bolts of the shift cable brackets. Remove and wire the steering gear out of the way the EGR valve - steering gear and linkage power steering hoses and brackets. Take off the cowling and the windshield wiper assembly for 6-speed models. Take off the flexible exhaust pipe sections and Y-pipe, right-side exhaust heat shield and remove catalytic converter. Remove the heat shield over the roll restrictor and unbolt it. Next, remove the driveaxles and splash aprons from the fenderwells. In order to remove the left steering knuckle; protect the left outer CV joint with wood blocking (Note: see video link). Remove internal combustion engine, drain transaxle oil, disconnect and stopper the transmission fluid hoses. Take out the bolts holding the transaxle support insulator brackets followed by the brackets. Utilize a jack, preferably a transmission jack, to support the transaxle, then disconnect the oxygen sensors. Take off torque converter cover, mark torque converter relationship to driveplate, take off converter mounting nuts. Remove any other bolts retaining the transaxle to the engine. Move the transaxle from the engine to disengage it from the engine block dowel pins. Lower the transmission jack carefully to the floor to remove the transaxle. To install, follow removal steps in reverse order. Ensure that the torque converter drive tangs engage with the automatic transaxle fluid pump inner gear. Align the match marks on the torque converter and driveplate. Install all driveplate-to-torque converter nuts before tightening. Tighten to specification. The transaxle mounting bolts, suspension crossmember mounting bolts, driveaxle/hub nuts, wheel lug nuts must also be tightened to specification. When the above steps have been completed, you need to fill the transaxle with the correct type and amount of automatic transmission fluid, and adjust the shift cable.

Accepted Answer

To uninstall the transaxle, first remove the battery and tray, and disconnect the cables from the battery. After that, remove the air filter housing and duct, and unplug the wiring connectors for the back-up light switch. Detach the shift cables from the shift arms on the transaxle and remove the wire harness brackets from transaxle front and rear. to start, remove the car's speed sensor electrical connector. Next, an engine support fixture should be attached to the lifting hook at the transaxle end of the engine. If no hook is available, use a bolt. Take off the mounting bolts that connect the upper part of the engine with the transmission. Loosen the nuts of the driveaxle/hub as well as wheel lug nuts. Raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheels. Take off the splash shield screws and pushpins, disconnect the exhaust from the manifold, and remove the front half. Remove the clutch release cylinder and line from the transaxle, the clutch cable mounting bracket bolts, and the steering gear. Eliminate the transaxle mounts and brackets along with the rear mount through-bolt and starter. Remove the transaxle support bracket by draining the transaxle lubricant and unbolting its 4 bolts. Remove bolts and brackets from the subframe corrector mounting, suspension subframe, and longitudinal crossmember along with engine roll restrictor. Using a jack, preferably a transmission jack, support the transaxle and remove the remaining bolts that secure the transaxle to the engine. Carefully pull the transaxle away from the engine to disengage it from the dowel pins of the engine block. After this, it is possible to lower the transmission jack, which can be lowered to the floor and pull out the transaxle. However, if necessary, lean the engine towards the transaxle side to obtain clearance. Prior to installation, apply high heat grease to the input shaft of the transaxle. Secure the transaxle to the jack, raise into position behind the engine, and pull it forward until the input shaft engages the clutch. Once the engine is flush, install and tighten the transaxle-to-engine bolts without using them to force the transaxle and engine together. Installation is the reverse of removal. Ensure to tighten the mounting bolts of the suspension crossmember, driveaxle/hub nuts, starter mounting bolts and wheel lug nuts to their specified torque values. Lastly, fill the transaxle fluid with the correct type and amount.
