2010 Scion xB Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Scion's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Scion? 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 xB’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your xB is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my xB's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2010 xB’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 Scion, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Scion xB transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Scion xB can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your xB ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
