1989 Toyota Corolla 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 I tow in a Toyota Corolla? 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. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • Does my Corolla's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Toyota Corolla’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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 Toyota, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Toyota Corolla transmission fluid leak? Yes. Toyota Corolla 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.

  • Can I still drive my Toyota Corolla if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak.
