1993 Chevrolet C1500 Suburban Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Chevrolet? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chevrolet C1500 Suburban? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your C1500 Suburban’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your C1500 Suburban is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my C1500 Suburban's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1993 C1500 Suburban’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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 Chevrolet. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Chevrolet C1500 Suburban leak transmission fluid? Yes. Chevrolet C1500 Suburban transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
