1990 Peugeot 405 Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Peugeot'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.
  • What can I tow in a Peugeot? 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. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your 405 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my 405's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Peugeot 405 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 Peugeot. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Peugeot 405 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Peugeot 405 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who fixes Peugeot 405 transmission leaks? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair 405 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Peugeot 405 if it has 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 405 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
