Complete Auto Transmissions for Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera

Most car owners know the importance of maintaining the various parts that help their car go. Established in 1897, United States-based Oldsmobile is a company that manufactured cars and car parts, including transmissions, for more than 100 years. Automatic shift transmissions for Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera cars, which the brand manufactured from 1981 until 1996, were either of the three-speed or four-speed variety.

The motor sizes of the engines that work with these transmissions used for the Cutlass Ciera ranged from a 2.2-liter Inline-4 cylinder motor to a 3.8-liter V6 motor that ran on unleaded gasoline and a 4.3-liter V6 diesel engine. Depending on the size of the engine and the transmission, the Cutlass Ciera was able to achieve from 92 horsepower to 160 horsepower. The options available included

• 2.2-liter I4 (1993-96)
• 2.5-liter I4 (1982-92)
• 2.8-liter V6 (1986-89)
• 3.0-liter V6 (1982-85
• 3.1-liter V6 (1994-96)
• 3.3-liter V6 (1989-93)
• 3.8-liter V6 (1984-88)
• 4.3-liter diesel V6 (1982-85)

The transmission on a car is essential because

• The transmission regulates gas throughout general driving situations.
• The transmission can simplify shifting routines when driving and save wear and tear on the vehicles clutch.
• The transmission ensures a smooth transition between gears.

Because there are so many moving parts, transmissions for the Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera break down from time to time although not usually before at least 100,000 miles. However, it also depends on the type of driving. Stop-and-go driving, such as that found in urban areas with heavy traffic patterns, is harder on transmissions than highway driving or driving where the amount of gear shifting needed is limited. Also, if the transmission fluid gets contaminated, such as if there is a leak in the transmission or hoses, it can cause the transmission to break down. Not changing the transmission fluid regularly, which is usually between 30,000 and 60,000 miles, can also cause the transmission to break down.

For the most part, the only kind of maintenance needed for a transmission is to check the fluid regularly. This should be done when the car is running or has been running recently and is still warm. The vehicle should also be parked on a flat, level surface. The transmission has a dipstick similar to the engine oil and can be checked the same way. If the fluid level is low, it is possible to add some without taking it to a repair shop. However, there may be a leak, and this should be checked frequently.
