Questions About 1984 Pontiac J2000 Sunbird’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Pontiac's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Pontiac? 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 J2000 Sunbird is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my J2000 Sunbird's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Pontiac J2000 Sunbird 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 Pontiac. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Pontiac J2000 Sunbird? Yes, your Pontiac J2000 Sunbird can develop a transmission fluid leak.
