What Does Your Cadillac XT5 Transmission Do?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your XT5’s performance. It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Cadillac XT5 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you ignore Cadillac XT5 transmission issues you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your XT5 at all.

2023 Cadillac XT5 Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my 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 XT5? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your XT5’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your XT5 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my XT5's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Cadillac XT5’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 transmission fluid leak from my Cadillac XT5? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Cadillac XT5, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Where can I get my  Cadillac XT5 transmission fixed? When your XT5 transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I drive my Cadillac XT5 with a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your XT5 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.
