2008 Suzuki Forenza Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Suzuki's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Suzuki tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Forenza towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Forenza's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2008 Forenza’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Suzuki's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Suzuki Forenza leak transmission fluid? Yes. Suzuki Forenza transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.

You might even experience transmission failure.
