1986 Dodge D100 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Dodge's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Dodge? 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 D100’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my D100's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Dodge D100’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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 Dodge. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Dodge D100? Yes, your Dodge D100 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your D100 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
