2004 GMC Yukon XL 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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my GMC tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Yukon XL 2500 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Yukon XL 2500 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Yukon XL 2500's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2004 Yukon XL 2500’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 GMC's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
