Questions About 2011 Chevrolet Cruze’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Chevrolet? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Chevrolet tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. 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 Cruze is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Cruze transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Chevrolet Cruze’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 Chevrolet. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Chevrolet Cruze transmission fluid leak? Yes. Chevrolet Cruze transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
