Questions About 2000 Cadillac Catera’s Transmission

  • 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 my Cadillac tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Catera’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Catera is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Catera's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2000 Catera’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Cadillac Catera transmission fluid leak? Yes. Cadillac Catera transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
