What’s the Importance of Your 2021 Equinox’s Transmission?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Equinox’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Chevrolet Equinox transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Chevrolet Equinox transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Equinox at all.

Questions About 2021 Chevrolet Equinox’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chevrolet's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chevrolet Equinox? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Equinox towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Equinox's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Chevrolet Equinox’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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Chevrolet Equinox transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chevrolet Equinox, 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.
