Questions About 1990 Dodge D150’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Dodge? 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.
  • What can I tow in a Dodge? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your D150 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your D150 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my D150's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1990 D150’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Dodge D150? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Dodge D150, 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.
  • Where can I get my  Dodge D150 transmission fixed? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair D150 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Dodge D150 if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended. Transmission fluid is essential to the proper operation of the transmission system, and a leak can cause serious problems, including reduced performance, overheating, and potentially transmission failure.
