What Does Your Volkswagen Cabriolet Transmission Do?

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Cabriolet’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Volkswagen Cabriolet transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Volkswagen Cabriolet transmission trouble you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that your Cabriolet isn’t working at all.

1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Volkswagen's brakes? 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.
  • How much can I tow in a Volkswagen Cabriolet? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Cabriolet’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Cabriolet's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Volkswagen Cabriolet’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Volkswagen'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.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Volkswagen Cabriolet? Yes, your Volkswagen Cabriolet can develop a transmission fluid leak.
