How does Alfa Romeo drivetrain maintenance help save money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are the symptoms of a damaged Alfa Romeo drivetrain system?

Noises toward the back of your Alfa Romeo Stelvio, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often will I need Alfa Romeo Stelvio differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally 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 my Stelvio malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Stelvio’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Can you clear the Stelvio check engine light on your own?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Stelvio serious?

A drivetrain malfunction in your Stelvio should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Does my Stelvio transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your Stelvio. The drivetrain is the system of components that delivers power from the engine to the wheels to propel the vehicle forward. It includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Stelvio's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio to maintain its performance power. Follow Alfa Romeo's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Alfa Romeo Stelvio Drivetrain Repairs

You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Alfa Romeo Stelvio may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning.

Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Alfa Romeo Stelvio.
