2001 Chevrolet Express 2500 Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Chevrolet? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Express 2500’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Express 2500 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Express 2500 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Chevrolet Express 2500’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Chevrolet Express 2500? Yes, your Chevrolet Express 2500 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Express 2500 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
