Such problems aren’t hard to spot. 2002 Cadillac DeVille transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you ignore Cadillac DeVille transmission issues you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that your DeVille isn’t working at all.

2002 Cadillac DeVille Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Cadillac's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Cadillac? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your DeVille 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 DeVille's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Cadillac DeVille’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Cadillac. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Cadillac DeVille transmission fluid leak? Yes. Cadillac DeVille 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.
  • Where can I get my  Cadillac DeVille transmission fixed? When your DeVille transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Should I avoid driving my Cadillac DeVille if there is a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your DeVille 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.
