2004 Porsche 911 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Porsche'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 Porsche? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 911’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my 911's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2004 911’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 Porsche. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Porsche 911 transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Porsche 911, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
