2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Chevrolet? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Silverado 2500 HD’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Silverado 2500 HD is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Silverado 2500 HD's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2021 Silverado 2500 HD’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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 Silverado 2500 HD? Yes. Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD 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.

  • Should I avoid driving my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD if there is a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Silverado 2500 HD to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
