Such problems aren’t hard to spot. 2001 Chevrolet Impala transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. Let Chevrolet Impala transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Impala at all.

Questions About 2001 Chevrolet Impala’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Chevrolet's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Chevrolet tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Impala towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Impala's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Chevrolet Impala transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Chevrolet Impala leak transmission fluid? Yes. Chevrolet Impala 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.
