Questions About 2013 Honda Civic’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Honda'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.
  • What can I tow in a Honda? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Civic towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Civic's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Honda Civic’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 Honda. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Honda Civic? Yes, your Honda Civic can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Civic ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.

You might even experience transmission failure.
