1998 Buick Park Avenue Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Buick's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Buick Park Avenue? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Park Avenue’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Park Avenue is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Park Avenue's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Buick Park Avenue’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Buick's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Buick Park Avenue transmission fluid leak? Yes. Buick Park Avenue transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.

  • Should I avoid driving my Buick Park Avenue if there is a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Park Avenue if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
