2005 Cadillac Escalade EXT Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Cadillac's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Cadillac Escalade EXT? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Escalade EXT towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Escalade EXT's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Cadillac Escalade EXT transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Cadillac Escalade EXT? Yes. Cadillac Escalade EXT transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Where can I get my  Cadillac Escalade EXT transmission fixed? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair Escalade EXT transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Cadillac Escalade EXT if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Escalade EXT to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
