Do you want a vehicle that drives strong and lasts the long-haul? Then the main operating components need to be taken care of.

The value of your drivetrain system impacts every area of the car’s operation. The drivetrain requires regular maintenance to stay in working condition. Unfortunately, Kansas drivers and auto mechanics often overlook this system. To help you take care of your car, here are the warning signs of drivetrain trouble.

Symptoms of drivetrain problems

There are a few symptoms to indicate a struggling drivetrain.

The signs of a malfunctioning drivetrain include:

• Vibrations or shudders
• Irregular sounds
• Any noises from the rear of the vehicle
• Turning issues
• Fluid leakage
• Malfunction indicator lights are on

Too many Kansas drivers believe the drivetrain system lasts forever, or that the rear axle never needs servicing. This misconception has led to the drivetrain being one of the most overlooked components of the vehicle’s operation.

Unfortunately, many owners miss drivetrain damage until it’s too late. With regularly scheduled maintenance service, you can catch needed repairs and replacements before the real trouble begins.
