Why is Your 1994 Thunderbird’s Transmission So Important?

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Thunderbird’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Ford Thunderbird transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. Let Ford Thunderbird transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your Thunderbird isn’t working at all.

Questions About 1994 Ford Thunderbird’s Transmission

  • 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Ford tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Thunderbird towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Thunderbird is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Thunderbird's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Ford Thunderbird transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Ford's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Ford Thunderbird? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Ford Thunderbird, 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.
  • Who does Ford Thunderbird transmission repair? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair Thunderbird transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
  • Can I still drive my Ford Thunderbird if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving your Thunderbird with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
