Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Astro’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Can my Astro malfunction warning light be reset at home?

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 Astro'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 Astro.

Does my Astro drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your Astro 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 Astro forward.

All About 2004 Chevrolet Astro Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Astro's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Chevrolet, from back to front. It’s one of your Astro’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 2004 Chevrolet Astro to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Chevrolet's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

Chevrolet Astro Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2004 Chevrolet Astro drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Chevrolet Astro may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Chevrolet Astro doesn’t drive like it used to.

How much does it cost to fix your 2004 Chevrolet Astro drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Major repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.
