1987 Cadillac Brougham Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Cadillac? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Cadillac Brougham? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Brougham towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • Does my Brougham's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Cadillac Brougham’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 Cadillac's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Cadillac Brougham transmission fluid leak? Yes. Cadillac Brougham transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
