1994 Chevrolet Lumina 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. 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 Lumina? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Lumina towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Lumina's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Chevrolet Lumina transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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.
  • Can Chevrolet Lumina transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chevrolet Lumina, potentially causing transmission problems.

You might even experience transmission failure.
