1992 Oldsmobile Toronado Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Oldsmobile'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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Oldsmobile Toronado? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Toronado’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Toronado is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Toronado transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1992 Toronado’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 Oldsmobile. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Oldsmobile Toronado leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Oldsmobile Toronado can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Toronado ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
