1987 Mazda 626 review from North America
"The most reliable car I have had so far!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The engine had a small oil leak (one quart per two weeks).
The clutch was slipping (had to replace the clutch disk and it worked super!).
Manual windows were very tight and one quit working.
General comments?
I am very satisfied with this car.
It really never got me stuck, even though it had a big mileage.
The engine always started when I needed it -- very reliable! During wintertime (0 degrees Fahrenheit) it always started at the first attempt!
