How often should I come in for Cadillac ATS differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a ATS?

If your ATS has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can my ATS malfunction warning light be reset at home?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your ATS’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my ATS?

If your ATS has a drivetrain malfunction, don't wait. Get it checked out by a professional mechanic. Identifying the underlying cause and performing the appropriate repairs right away can help prevent further damage and avoid unsafe driving conditions.

Does my ATS drivetrain include the transmission?

The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your ATS 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.

All About 2015 Cadillac ATS Drivetrain Service

Your ATS drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your ATS’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2015 Cadillac ATS, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Cadillac's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Cadillac ATS 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 come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2015 Cadillac ATS drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Cadillac ATS may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Cadillac ATS drives.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2015 Cadillac ATS drivetrain repair is expensive. Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.
