Questions About 2006 Ford Ranger’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Ford? 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 my Ford tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Ranger towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Ranger's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2006 Ranger’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.
