1986 Chrysler Fifth Avenue Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chrysler'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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Chrysler tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Fifth Avenue is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Fifth Avenue transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Chrysler Fifth Avenue transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 Chrysler. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Chrysler Fifth Avenue transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chrysler Fifth Avenue, potentially causing transmission problems.
