2008 Infiniti QX56 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Infiniti's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Infiniti? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your QX56 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my QX56's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2008 QX56’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 Infiniti. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Infiniti QX56? Yes. Infiniti QX56 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.

  • Should I avoid driving my Infiniti QX56 if there is a transmission fluid leak? Driving your QX56 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.
