It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2012 Chevrolet Camaro transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood.

2012 Chevrolet Camaro Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chevrolet's brakes? 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 Chevrolet Camaro? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Camaro’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my Camaro transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Chevrolet Camaro transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Chevrolet, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Chevrolet Camaro? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chevrolet Camaro, 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.
  • Who can fix my  Chevrolet Camaro transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for Camaro transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Chevrolet Camaro if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Camaro 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.
