1994 Mazda 626 GLX- GE10S1 - GB2D review from Argentina
"IF NOT USA VERSION great car! only 626 japanese are nice, AVOID those with FORD parts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Minor water leaks, front left brake.
General comments?
GREAT CAR very pleasant to drive and mantain. Good price and performance.
The trans. problems I read about, seems to be for those USA MADE cars. I have tested 2 626 japanese version (for other countries) GB2D 2.0 AT - GE10S1 for 200.000 kms in one car an 70.000 km in another, and the transmission never caused a single problem. MAYBE FORD TRANSMISSION IS THE PROBLEM and only for the USA 626 models.
