1983 Chevrolet G30 Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chevrolet's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Chevrolet tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your G30’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your G30 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my G30's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Chevrolet G30’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 G30 transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Chevrolet G30 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your G30 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Who fixes Chevrolet G30 transmission leaks? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair G30 transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
  • Can I still drive my Chevrolet G30 if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your G30 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
