What Does Your Geo Metro 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 Metro’s performance. They're often easy to notice. 1992 Geo Metro transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Geo Metro transmission trouble you might notice your fuel economy decrease or discover that your Metro’s not even driveable.

1992 Geo Metro Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Geo's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Geo? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Metro’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Metro is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Metro's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1992 Metro’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Geo'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 my Geo Metro leak transmission fluid? Yes. Geo Metro 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.

  • Should I avoid driving my Geo Metro if there is a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Metro if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
