Questions About 2019 GMC Yukon XL’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your GMC? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a GMC? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Yukon XL is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Yukon XL's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your GMC Yukon XL’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your GMC. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my GMC Yukon XL? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your GMC Yukon XL, 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 can fix my  GMC Yukon XL transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for Yukon XL transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my GMC Yukon XL if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving your Yukon XL 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.
