What’s the Importance of Your 2009 Fit’s Transmission?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Honda Fit transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Honda Fit transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Fit at all.

Honda Transmission Recommendations for 2009 Fits

Your Fit’s transmission should be inspected routinely, according to Honda. For example, Honda recommends exchanging transmission and differential fluids in 2009 Honda Fits at certain intervals with Honda-approved transmission fluid.

Questions About 2009 Honda Fit’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Honda's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. 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 Fit is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Fit's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2009 Fit’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Honda Fit transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Honda Fit, 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 does Honda Fit transmission repair? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair Fit transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Should I avoid driving my Honda Fit if there is 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 Fit to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
