How does Alfa Romeo drivetrain maintenance help save money?

What are signs my Alfa Romeo drivetrain is damaged?

Your Alfa Romeo 4C drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.

How often should I come in for Alfa Romeo 4C differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my 4C?

If your 4C has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can you reset your 4C’s malfunction warning light at home?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your 4C’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my 4C?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your 4C, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Does my 4C transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your 4C’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your 4C forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2018 Alfa Romeo 4C to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Alfa Romeo's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
