Hey Scotty. Love your vids 🙂

I have a '97 Mazda 626 with the V6 engine and automatic transmission. The transmission was replaced around 2016, and the car reached 100K miles this year. How much longer would you say it's gonna last?

Thanks!

To get a fairly good idea how much car you have left, get a leak down test and a compression test.  A good mechanic can look at these numbers and give you a pretty good idea.

Where did you get this transmission replaced? Was it a remanufactured one? At what mileage did the transmission need replacement?

Keep up with the maintenance on that car. Change the oil every 5k, the transmission fluid every 30k.
