What’s the Importance of Your 1993 Cougar’s Transmission?

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, even the smallest transmission problems should be addressed right away. It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Mercury Cougar transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you ignore Mercury Cougar transmission issues you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that your Cougar isn’t working at all.

1993 Mercury Cougar Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mercury? 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.
  • What can I tow in a Mercury? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Cougar 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.
  • Does my Cougar's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Mercury Cougar transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Mercury's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Mercury Cougar transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mercury Cougar, 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 Mercury Cougar transmission repair? When your Cougar transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Is it okay to drive a Cougar with a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Cougar if it’s leaking transmission fluid.

You might even experience transmission failure.
