2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Land Rover? 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.
  • How much can my Land Rover tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. 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 Discovery Sport transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Land Rover Discovery Sport transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 Land Rover. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Land Rover Discovery Sport transmission fluid leak? Yes. Land Rover Discovery Sport transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing.

You might even experience transmission failure.
