What’s the Importance of Your 2000 Avalon’s Transmission?

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms.

It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2000 Toyota Avalon transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you ignore Toyota Avalon transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Avalon at all.

2000 Toyota Avalon Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Toyota? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Toyota tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my Avalon transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Toyota Avalon’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 Toyota. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Toyota Avalon leak transmission fluid? Yes. Toyota Avalon transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who can fix my  Toyota Avalon transmission leak? When your Avalon transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I drive my Toyota Avalon with a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Avalon 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.
