Some Mazda 626 owners report experiencing stalling issues when shifting into gear, which can stem from several common problems. These include transmission pressure control solenoid failure, leading to erratic shifting and stalling. Additionally, a worn-out intake manifold gasket is frequently cited as a cause of stalling when coming to a stop. Some owners have noted that if the engine stalls upon clutch engagement, it may indicate problems with the clutch system or related components. Transmission gear slipping has also been reported, contributing to stalling during gear shifts. Furthermore, general transmission issues, such as difficulty in shifting or the transmission failing to engage, can exacerbate these stalling concerns. It is recommended that owners experiencing these issues consult a professional mechanic specializing in transmission repair to ensure safe and efficient vehicle operation.
