1996 Land Rover Range Rover Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Land Rover's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Land Rover Range Rover? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Range Rover's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Land Rover Range Rover’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 Land Rover, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Land Rover Range Rover? Yes, your Land Rover Range Rover can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Range Rover ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Where can I get my  Land Rover Range Rover transmission fixed? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair Range Rover transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Land Rover Range Rover if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Range Rover if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
