Transmission Noise problems of the 2002 Mazda 626

On acceleration from being stopped the transmission would make a series of popping sounds. I took it to a mechanic and it was diagnosed to be a stretched drive chain in the transmission. Instances of high torque would cause the chain to skip past teeth, causing the popping noise. Due to the significant amount if problems that plague the cd4e transmission the entire unit was replaced.

Transmission making popping noises and lagging when making turns sounds horrible took to a mechanic he says he can fix it for 1700. 00 the transmission is bad. At a litttle over a 100 thousand miles it shouldn't need replaced. Ford should have to fix it. \.

I have a 2002 Mazda 626 4cyl with 71,200 miles. I had just paid it off last month and come to find out my automatic transmission is going out on me. When accelerating it sounds as if gears are grinding. There was a couple times over the last 3 months my check engine light came on. I took it in and was told my battery connection was loose.
