Questions About 2016 Acura RLX’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Acura? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Acura? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. Defying your RLX towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your RLX is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my RLX's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Acura RLX transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Acura, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Acura RLX transmission fluid leak? Yes. Acura RLX transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
