Questions About 2004 Cadillac DeVille’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Cadillac's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. 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 offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. 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. 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Cadillac DeVille transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Cadillac DeVille can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your DeVille ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.

You might even experience transmission failure.
