What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2015 Audi S5

Your S5’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Audi, from back to front.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2015 Audi S5, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Audi's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
