2016 GMC Savana 2500 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my GMC's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a GMC Savana 2500? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Savana 2500 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Savana 2500 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Savana 2500's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your GMC Savana 2500 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your GMC, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my GMC Savana 2500? Yes. GMC Savana 2500 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.

  • Can I still drive my GMC Savana 2500 if it has 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 Savana 2500 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
