Questions About 1987 Honda Civic’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Honda's brakes? 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 Honda? 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 Civic is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Civic's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Honda Civic 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 Honda, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Honda Civic transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Honda Civic, 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.
  • Where can I get my  Honda Civic transmission fixed? When your Civic transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I drive my Honda Civic with a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Civic if it’s leaking transmission fluid.

You might even experience transmission failure.
