Questions About 1987 Pontiac Fiero’s Transmission

  • How much can my Pontiac tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 1987 Fiero’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. 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 Pontiac, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
