What Does Your Nissan Pathfinder Transmission Do?

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, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Nissan Pathfinder transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. Let Nissan Pathfinder transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Pathfinder at all.

Questions About 1993 Nissan Pathfinder’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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Nissan? 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.
  • How often does my Pathfinder transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Nissan Pathfinder transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 Nissan, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Nissan Pathfinder leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Nissan Pathfinder can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Pathfinder ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
