2005 Nissan 350Z Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Nissan tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your 350Z towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your 350Z is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my 350Z's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2005 350Z’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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Nissan 350Z? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Nissan 350Z, 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.

  • Should I avoid driving my Nissan 350Z if there is a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your 350Z to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
