What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1983 Audi Coupe

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Coupe's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles.

When you tune into you 1983 Audi Coupe drivetrain, you help maintain your vehicle’s overall power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Audi's recommendations.
