Questions About 2019 Cadillac XTS’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Cadillac? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Cadillac XTS? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your XTS is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my XTS's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Cadillac XTS 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Cadillac XTS leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Cadillac XTS can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your XTS ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
