Automatic transmissions FW6A-EL, FW6AX-EL, GW6A-EL and GW6AX-EL, used on Mazda CX-5 vehicles, are distinguished by high performance: fuel efficiency, fast and smooth gear shifting, smooth and reliable starting of the car.
The mechanical part of the automatic transmission consists of two multi-disc clutches, three multi-disc brakes, an overrunning clutch and three single planetary gears.

The electronic control of an automatic transmission consists of three systems responsible for the operation of the torque converter, hydraulic and electronic control mechanisms.
Sports type selector for automatic transmission is used for all versions of the Mazda CX-5. An electric lock mechanism is used to prevent the driver from changing modes by mistake, and a manual release system is used to ensure safe driving in the event that gear cannot be shifted for any reason.
The shift lock system works when the ignition is on and the brake pedal is not depressed. It prevents the selector lever from moving from position P to any other position.
If the shift lock mechanism does not unlock normally, it can be unlocked manually by inserting a flathead screwdriver into the dedicated hole in the selector lever panel.
