1984 Volvo 244 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Volvo'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.
  • How much can I tow in a Volvo 244? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your 244 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my 244's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1984 244’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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 Volvo. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Volvo 244? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Volvo 244, 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.
