Skyactiv Drive Powerflow/Clutches/Planetary 

Mantap

Thanks for making these tech videos. I enjoy driving my 2019 Mazda6 2.5 NA, and I find the Skyactiv mechanics really interesting. Your videos and knowledge is greatly appreciated!

As a new Mazda owner I find all these deep dives very interesting and looking forward to watching anymore as the content you make

Dig it. Have owned a 12, a 14, and a 22. Learned so much over the years from videos like this.

Thanks for taking the time.

Awesome vid! Detailed and very well explained. Keep em coming.

Cool vid

Thank you for showing the facts ! Are you able to explain the difference between the transmissions of the 2023 Mazda 3 awd turbo and the higher end models like CX 50 CX 90 ? If you are looking for another video there is also some lack of information about the difference of the turbo designs used in above stated models... Another video would be explaining all the engines Mazda has and what vehicles they are used in, much lack of information on these details online. Thanks again for your time it`s always much appreciated to see the actual parts along with explanations !

Sweet. My '16 mazda 3 is giving me acceleration issues, whenever the gas is pressed the vehicle takes its rpm's higher than normal to fully accelerate. I have done engine performance checks and they seem to be accurate for the 80,000 miles i got. How much do these FW6AEL trannys cost? Is there an overhaul kit I can purchase? I really love my car, im a college student and I feel like this transmission seems "easier" to overhaul than honda's bx7a transmission lol.

What would you recommend, drain and fill every 30-40k or do a filter change every 70k?

Is this torque converter reliable? How many km can it do?

Have you had much to do with the 3-4 shift chirp on the cylinder deactivation models?

These videos are very interesting and leads me to ask something I've been wondering out. I like to use M mode to downshift and engine brake much like someone would with a manual transmission. However these downshifts are pretty hard, lacking the smoothness of the normal computer controlled downshifts in D mode. Could I be causing any gear or clutch wear? Thanks.

Hey buddy I have a very important question for you I brought it to five different car dealerships nobody knows what it is I'm also a mechanic and I don't know what it is only thing I can think of is about body is leaking when a transmission is cold runs excellent once it runs for a little bit and it gets really hot from 3rd to 4th sometimes 4th to 5th it makes a loud bang and slams into gear if I put it in manual mode and let off the gas before I shift it does not do it does not do it I have a 06 Mazda 6s 3.0 6-speed please help me to figure out what it is
