1994 Suzuki Samurai Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Suzuki's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Suzuki Samurai? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Samurai is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Samurai transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Suzuki Samurai’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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Suzuki Samurai? Yes. Suzuki Samurai transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.

You might even experience transmission failure.
