2005 Suzuki Grand Vitara 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 I tow in a Suzuki Grand Vitara? 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 Grand Vitara’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my Grand Vitara transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Suzuki Grand Vitara’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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 Suzuki. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Suzuki Grand Vitara? Yes. Suzuki Grand Vitara 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.
  • Where can I get my  Suzuki Grand Vitara transmission fixed? When your Grand Vitara transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I still drive my Suzuki Grand Vitara if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Grand Vitara if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
