Gearbox a little clunky
Why put up with the mechanical crudity of a manual gearbox and friction clutch, when Mazda's 6 speed torque converter automatic is one of the best in the business? Give your left foot a rest and enter the 21st century. You will never want to go back to a manual.

I agree, that for an automatic gearbox, it does the job very well. However I would go back to a manual box if I didn't have my manual MX5. I find the auto keeps you too remote from what the car is doing. I just enjoy the more positive feel you get from a manual box which can't be replaced by an auto. I guess we all have our own preferences.

No, not to these forums. Claim on your extended warranty. If you haven't got one, ask a dealer to raise a goodwill claim with Mazda.
