1997 Infiniti J30 Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Infiniti? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Infiniti tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. Defying your J30 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • How often does my J30 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Infiniti J30’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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 Infiniti, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Infiniti J30 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Infiniti J30 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
