Questions About 1985 Chevrolet Impala’s Transmission

  • 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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chevrolet Impala? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Impala towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Impala is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Impala's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1985 Impala’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Chevrolet Impala? Yes. Chevrolet Impala transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
