What transmission is used in the Changan Yidong manual transmission?

The transmission manufacturer used in the Mazda6 is the Japanese Mazda Motor Corporation. Mazda Motor Corporation, founded in 1920, officially began producing small trucks in Hiroshima in 1931 and started manufacturing passenger cars in the early 1960s. It has a very comprehensive product line, covering various models such as economy cars, SUVs, and sports cars, with family cars consistently dominating its production line. The Mazda6 uses a 6-speed manual transmission, 4-speed automatic transmission, 5-speed manual-automatic transmission, and 4-speed manual-automatic transmission. A manual transmission is a gear-shifting device used to alter the speed and torque transmitted from the engine to the driving wheels, enabling the car to achieve different traction and speed under various conditions such as starting, climbing hills, turning, and accelerating. When using the Mazda6's transmission in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for too long. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can damage internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid coasting in neutral for extended periods. While driving manual transmission models, many experienced drivers may coast in neutral, but for automatic transmission models, this can cause the transmission to overheat and produce a noticeable shock when shifting back into D gear. Never shift into D/R gear before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Many drivers, to demonstrate smooth operation, shift into reverse gear while the vehicle is still moving, which can severely damage the transmission gears and lead to grinding or other faults over time. Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in D gear. On steep inclines, automatic transmission vehicles may overheat due to high load or shift too early, resulting in insufficient power. In such cases, use manual mode to limit lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow the vehicle over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to move it onto the tow platform while the vehicle is in N gear. Do not use a tow rope or tow the vehicle directly with another vehicle.

I've been driving a Changan Eado with a manual transmission for several years, which uses a 5-speed manual gearbox. This type of transmission is simple and reliable, perfectly adequate for daily commuting. The gear shifts are clear, and over time, you'll find the clutch engagement point easy to locate, making it hard for beginners to stall. On the highway, the RPM runs a bit high, but it's truly fuel-efficient—I average around 6 liters per 100 kilometers. However, in congested city traffic, frequent gear shifting can be a bit tiring for the foot. Just remember not to ride the clutch for extended periods and change the transmission oil every 40,000 kilometers, and you shouldn't encounter major issues. Overall, the car is cheap to maintain and quite easy to drive, though it does test the endurance of your left leg in heavy traffic.

As a car enthusiast, I really enjoy the handling feel of the Changan Eado manual transmission. The 5-speed manual gearbox is well-tuned, with moderate gear lever travel and crisp gear engagement. You can clearly feel the acceleration push in second gear. Although it only has five gears, the gear ratio design is reasonable - first gear provides strong starting power, and fifth gear handles highway cruising effortlessly. The clutch is relatively light, making continuous gear shifts less tiring. The drawbacks are slightly louder noise at high RPMs, and manual transmission isn't as convenient as automatic in city rush hours. But it offers great driving pleasure - every gearshift makes you feel the perfect harmony between man and machine, a pure sensation that automatic transmissions can't provide.

My Changan Eado with a manual transmission has been running for three years, equipped with a common 5-speed manual gearbox. What satisfies me most is its reliability—it has never let me down during daily school runs for the kids or weekend getaways. The gearshift feels solid, though slightly stiff when cold in winter, but becomes smooth once warmed up. Maintenance is hassle-free, with gear oil changes costing just over a hundred yuan, much cheaper than automatic transmissions. My wife occasionally struggles with the manual, but I appreciate the notably lower fuel consumption compared to automatics, saving significant fuel costs long-term. The only downside is left foot fatigue during long road trips after four or five hours of continuous driving, requiring occasional breaks.
