1986 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Oldsmobile? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Oldsmobile? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Cutlass Supreme is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Cutlass Supreme transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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 Oldsmobile. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, 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.

You might even experience transmission failure.
