Questions About 1990 Pontiac LeMans’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Pontiac? 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.
  • How much can I tow in a Pontiac LeMans? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your LeMans’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your LeMans is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my LeMans's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1990 LeMans’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 Pontiac. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
