Questions About 2003 Chevrolet Suburban 2500’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chevrolet's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and 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 small it is. Defying your Suburban 2500 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 2003 Suburban 2500’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. 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.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Chevrolet Suburban 2500? Yes, your Chevrolet Suburban 2500 can develop a transmission fluid leak.
