Stall Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Perform the "Mechanical System Test Preparation" (See MECHANICAL SYSTEM TEST PREPARATION .)
Start the engine.
Firmly depress the brake pedal with the left foot.
Shift the selector lever to the D range.
CAUTION:
- If the accelerator pedal is depressed for more than 5 s while the brake pedal is depressed, the transaxle could be damaged. Therefore, perform Steps 5 and 6 within 5 s.
- Perform the test at least 3 times and calculate the average.
Gently depress the accelerator pedal with the right foot.
When the engine speed no longer increases, quickly read the engine speed and release the accelerator pedal.
Shift the selector lever to the N position and idle the engine for 1 min or more to cool the ATF.
Perform a stall test of the M range and R position in the same manner.
Turn off the engine
