What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2014 Audi S6

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your S6's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It's one of the most complex systems in your S6 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2014 Audi S6, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Audi's recommendations.

When to Get Audi S6 Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2014 Audi S6 drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Audi could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Audi S6 doesn’t drive like it used to.

How much does it cost to fix your 2014 Audi S6 drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.

2014 Audi S6 Drivetrain Questions

Drivetrain problems mean driving problems. Get answers to common drivetrain questions and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for drivetrain help.

  • Can Audi service save me money? Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.
  • What are signs my Audi drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your Audi S6, 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 should I come in for Audi S6 differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my S6? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your S6’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can you clear the S6 check engine light on your own? While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your S6's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your S6.
  • How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my S6? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your S6, 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 S6 drivetrain include the transmission? The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your S6 is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
