Questions About 1998 Nissan 240SX’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Nissan's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Nissan 240SX? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your 240SX towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my 240SX transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1998 240SX’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 Nissan. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Nissan 240SX leak transmission fluid? Yes. Nissan 240SX 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. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Who can fix my  Nissan 240SX transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for 240SX transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Nissan 240SX if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended. Transmission fluid is essential to the proper operation of the transmission system, and a leak can cause serious problems, including reduced performance, overheating, and potentially transmission failure.
