Questions About 2014 Fiat 500L’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Fiat? 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 Fiat tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your 500L towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • How often does my 500L transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2014 500L’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 Fiat. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Fiat 500L leak transmission fluid? Yes. Fiat 500L transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
