  • Does my Escalade EXT's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Cadillac Escalade EXT transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 my Cadillac Escalade EXT leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Cadillac Escalade EXT, potentially causing transmission problems.
