THE 1994 MAZDA 626LX WITH A V-6 2.5L MOTOR HAS REQUIRED 3 TRANSMISSIONS IN THE 8 YEARS I HAVE OWNED THE CAR. THE WATER PUMP WENT OUT TWICE AND THE ALTERNATOR TWICE AS WELL. THIS LAST TIME THE TRANSMISSION FAILED, I WAS ON I-5 HEADING NORTH NEAR THE LOS BANOS TURNOFF WHEN IT JUST STARTED SLIPPING AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE FREEWAY. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THE DESIGN AND LONGEVITY OF MANY PARTS OF THIS VEHICLE. *TR

THE ALTERNATOR OR WATER PUMP BELT BROKE DUE TO WATER PUMP PULLEY ALIGNMENT CAUSING THE ENGINE TO OVERHEAT AND REQUIRE REBUILDING PROCESS. WATER PUMP PULLEY IS POSITIONED TOO CLOSE TO THE ENGINE AND NOT ALIGNED WITH THE ALTERNATOR AND HARMONIC BALANCER. V-BELT SHREDS OVER TIME DUE TO MISALIGNMENT AND LOST OF CHARGING AND COOLING IS INSTANT. WATER PUMP PULLEY ALIGNMENT SHOULD BE CHECKED AND ADJUSTED IF NEEDED, DURING ENGINE ASSEMBLY. *LA
