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

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable.

Yes, the drivetrain system in your SRX includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your SRX forward.

All About 2007 Cadillac SRX Drivetrain Service

Your SRX’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Cadillac, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2007 Cadillac SRX, 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 Cadillac's recommendations.
