1988 Chevrolet G30 Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your 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 I tow in a Chevrolet G30? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your G30 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. 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.
  • Does my G30's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Chevrolet G30’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Chevrolet's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Chevrolet G30 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Chevrolet G30 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
