What Does Your Ford GT Transmission Do?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your GT’s performance. They're often easy to notice. Ford GT transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Ford GT transmission trouble you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your GT at all.

Ford Transmission Recommendations for 2006 GTs

Ford recommends having your GT's transmission system routinely inspected for wear and tear. For example, Ford recommends exchanging transmission and differential fluids in 2006 Ford GTs at certain intervals with Ford-approved transmission fluid. Our technicians are trained to service 2006  Ford GT transmission systems according to vehicle manufacturer recommendations. Schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign of transmission problems to help keep your engine running at peak performance.

2006 Ford GT Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Ford's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Ford GT? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your GT towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your GT is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my GT transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Ford GT 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 Ford. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Ford GT? Yes. Ford GT transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Who fixes Ford GT transmission leaks? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair GT transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Should I avoid driving my Ford GT 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 GT to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
