1991 Chevrolet S10 Transmission Q&A

  • 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. 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 S10? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your S10’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your S10 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my S10 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Chevrolet S10’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.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Chevrolet S10? Yes, your Chevrolet S10 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your S10 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.
  • Where can I get my  Chevrolet S10 transmission fixed? When your S10 transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I drive my Chevrolet S10 with a transmission fluid leak? Driving your S10 with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged.

A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
