Questions About 1990 Chrysler Imperial’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Chrysler's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Chrysler tow?   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 Imperial’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Imperial's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Chrysler Imperial 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Chrysler Imperial leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chrysler Imperial, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.

  • Should I avoid driving my Chrysler Imperial 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 Imperial to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
