They're often easy to notice. 2005 Toyota RAV4 transmission problems could include shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Toyota RAV4 transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your RAV4 isn’t working at all.

2005 Toyota RAV4 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Toyota'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.
  • What can I tow in a Toyota? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your RAV4’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my RAV4's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2005 RAV4’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 Toyota's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Toyota RAV4 transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Toyota RAV4, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.

A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
