Questions About 1987 Toyota Supra’s Transmission

  • 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. 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 your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Supra towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Supra's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1987 Supra’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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Toyota Supra? Yes. Toyota Supra 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.
