Transmission Fluid

Transmission fluid is a lubricating liquid that helps reduce friction and heat from the moving parts inside the transmission. Every Cadillac was designed with a manual or automatic transmission that requires special Cadillac approved transmission fluid. The best way to prolong the life of your transmission is to receive regular Transmission Fluid Exchange Service at the specified maintenance intervals.
