Re: weird 3rd gear

Congrats for checking your oil, if you only had to add 1qt chances your engine is ok. Dont quote me on this, but most 4 cylinders can still drive on as little 1qt total oil (my beater DD leaks alot of oil, believe me, I had to add 3 qts recently)

How is your transmission fluid level? do you even know how to check it? Hint: there is no dipstick

Some 5-speed transmissions use ATF, some mazdas....chances are you are going to use a GL3 type lube, 85w90 for an example, consult your user manual

There are alot of "if"s with your problem, its too bad you dont have a real DSM. But since you have basically a Neon, you should be able to find a good uesd transmission for cheap.

Good luck, start saving up
