2005 Buick LaCrosse Drivetrain Service

Your LaCrosse’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Buick, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your LaCrosse’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2005 Buick LaCrosse, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Buick's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

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 take care of most 2005 Buick LaCrosse drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Buick LaCrosse may need driveshaft attention if you feel clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." A lot depends on your driving style and climate. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Buick LaCrosse.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2005 Buick LaCrosse? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
