Is there a manual release button on a 1996 Mazda millenia the gear is stuck in park and car starts fine?

29s here, yes there a release button and it is located on the shifter housing directly across from the traction control button (tcs). pop the cover up with a smell flat head screwdriver and then stick that screwdriver down into that opening and press it down. that will disingauge the neutral safety switch so you should be able to shift. if problem persists check trans fluid and linkage located below the intake hose.

Your car was running hot and it overheated you pulled it over and got towed to the garage What are the chances your engine is blown only could smell antifreeze?

If you stopped as soon as it overheated, you probably have no damage, unless the head gasket has blown. This would require replacing the head gasket and possibly resurfacing or replacing the head. Depends on why the gasket blew, if it indeed is blown. You may have nothing more than a stuck thermostat, bad water pump, low coolant level, clogged radiator, or a non functioning fan. 29s here, a mechanic once told me that the 2.5 motor could go through hell was gasoline panties on. just dont over fill or deprive it of oil.

How do you replace the headlight bulb located on a 2001 Mazda Millenia S?

The bulbs can be removed and replaced from the rear of the light housing. Be sure to get the proper bulb/light combination as both the high and low beam bulbs are accessable. The bulbs can be removed by twisting approximately 1/4 turn CCW (counter clock wise) and them pulled straight back. Once you pull out the socket, you remove the old bulb and click the new one into the socket. Be careful not to touch the new bulb with your bare hands or get them dirty in any way. The oil from your skin will hold the heat on the glass surface of the bulb and cause it to burn out prematurely. Use a paper towel or tissue of some sort to grasp the bulb when you click it into the socket. It is pretty tight in there so care should be taken not to twist and tug to aggresively on the wiring as you maneuver around all the other wires, etc.

Is there any reason that front brakes for 1999 Mazda Millenia should cost 1000 at Midas?

hell no go to the dealer or an auto parts store buy a manual for your car and do it your self... Definitely not, I just had mine changed on a 97 Millenia and the total I paid was $89. 29s here, im sure they gave an explaination as to why they would charge up to/over one thousand dollars. it is quite possible that if they recommended calipers and hoses (usually dealer items) the list prices and labor may have come to that. list price is charged when a company gets parts from an outside source. if this is so and you want to take the cheaper route, see your local junkyard for the calipers.

Why would an otherwise-excellent heater in a 1995 Mazda Millenia blow cold air if the car is not moving?

Answer

Check the coolant level in the radiator. If it is low the coolant will not pass thru the heater core properly.

Answer

Also check for leaks around water pump. Could be an early sign pump is about to fail.

Answer

It sounds vaccum related, most heaters have vaccum operated doors to redirect air from vents to defroster to floor etc. vaccum may be lost at idle due to a leak or a reservoir problem.

the third answere is almost correct. the first two are poor guesses, at best. heat and cold are controlled by blende doors. in the millenia the blende doors are controlled by electric motors. however, the main control unit for all the doors is the a/c amplifier. i would first try another amp. you can get them cheap on ebay, and they are easy to change

Why does the car hesitate or power down when accelerating with a cold engine?

If I remember right there is a technical service bulletin about water getting into the ecm. If I am right he may find the computer either full of water or if you live in a climate that has freezing weather, the case may even be cracked. In the past we have been able to perform the recommended repair according to the tsb sucessfully, in some cases had to replace the ecm. Unfortunatley this question was moved from the Old FAQ, and pertinent information is now missing. This particular answer related to a particular car that is no longer mentioned.

AnswerYour o2 sensor may be bad. AnswerOr your EGR valve/sensor.

Answer

If its a EFI motor it is more then likely dirty fuel injectors, they just can't get enough fuel through them when its cold. Compare it to a older carby car that didn't have enough choke..

Usually the computer will not look at the O2 sensor when the motor is cold.
