2003 Buick Park Avenue Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Buick's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Buick? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. 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. 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 Buick, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Buick Park Avenue transmission fluid leak? Yes. Buick Park Avenue transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
