1985 Chrysler New Yorker 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 I tow in a Chrysler New Yorker? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your New Yorker’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • When should I have my New Yorker's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1985 New Yorker’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 Chrysler, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Chrysler New Yorker transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Chrysler New Yorker can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your New Yorker 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.
