How to find the right Mazda B2500 gearbox reference?
The choice of a gearbox is quite complex as there are many different references. It is important to note that the gearboxes that equip the vehicles produced by Mazda are not all the same. In fact, the transmission systems are designed differently depending on the specific model of the vehicle.
In the case of the B2500, all pick-ups manufactured and sold from 1999 to 2006 come with a 5-speed manual transmission as standard. However, some versions are available with an optional automatic transmission.
If you have a problem with the Mazda B2500 gearbox, you will probably be looking for a BVM5 part number that is compatible with your vehicle. The reference in question takes the form of a punch visible on the part itself. If you have trouble locating it or if you cannot decipher the engraving, seek professional advice. This will prevent you from investing in a product that will not fit your pick-up.
How to repair Mazda B2500 gearbox?
It is logical that the gearbox will lose performance after a few thousand kilometres and failures can take various forms: whistling gears, cracking when changing gears, difficulty in shifting gears, gears that drop out...
The first step in a successful repair is to identify the fault accurately. To do this, you must first note the symptoms, which will then help to determine the origin of the fault. There is no room for guesswork, as a misdiagnosis could lead to further deterioration or even breakage of the gearbox, which could then be completely irreparable.
Common sense will therefore lead you to rely on the expertise of a qualified professional. You can either go to your usual garage or ask for recommendations from your friends and family, your dealer, etc.
When you get to the workshop, take the time to explain your problem to the craftsman. Even details that seem insignificant to you can be useful.
The oil change Gearbox Mazda B2500 is an operation that is systematically carried out during periodic maintenance. It replaces the dirty Mazda B2500 gearbox oil with a clean lubricant, in accordance with the filling level recommended by the car manufacturer. The oil change often solves small problems such as cracking and difficult gear shifting. These problems are usually caused by insufficient lubrication of mechanical parts.
But changing the oil is not a miracle solution in the sense that it does not solve all the problems you may encounter with your gearbox. It may be necessary to remove and dismantle the gearbox, which is a tedious exercise. There is a specific order in which to remove the part from the rest of your transmission system. Otherwise, you could injure yourself or unintentionally cause further damage. The services of an experienced professional are therefore mandatory. He has a thorough knowledge of the architecture of the various gearboxes and his workshop is equipped with all the tools necessary to carry out a proper removal.
When the gearbox is removed from the pick-up, it must be drained and cleaned thoroughly. The craftsman first carries out a visual inspection to assess the condition of the part and possibly locate the source of the fault.
When this surface analysis is not conclusive, the professional chooses to dismantle the entire gearbox, taking the difficulty of the repair up a notch. The clutch release bearing must be removed, the housing unscrewed, the shafts dismantled... All this requires technique, dexterity and powerful tools. The professional will then take the necessary time to inspect your gearbox from all angles.
At the end of a long series of checks, the craftsman will be able to make a diagnosis and communicate it to you. He will explain to you what is wrong, what is causing the malfunction and the solutions to remedy it. If he considers that it is necessary to replace the gearbox, it will be wiser to take charge of the purchase to avoid the commission charged by the repairer inflating your bill. On the other hand, the removal of the faulty gearbox and the fitting of the replacement part must be left to the professional craftsman.
Once your Mazda B2500 has been reconditioned, consider getting advice on regular maintenance and make a note of the recommended service intervals. This will help you avoid future problems.
