1990 Cadillac Brougham Questions & Answers

  • How much can my Cadillac tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 1990 Brougham’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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 Cadillac, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
