Can Chevrolet 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 the symptoms of a damaged Chevrolet drivetrain system?

Noises toward the back of your Chevrolet Caprice, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

When should I come in for Chevrolet Caprice differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

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

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Caprice can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Is it possible to reset the Caprice malfunction warning light on my 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 Caprice'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 Caprice.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Caprice?

If your Caprice 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 Caprice drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Caprice’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Caprice forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

All About 1991 Chevrolet Caprice Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Caprice's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Chevrolet, from back to front. It's one of the most complex systems in your Caprice and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 1991 Chevrolet Caprice 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.

What Are Chevrolet Caprice Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 1991 Chevrolet Caprice drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints.

How much does it cost to fix your 1991 Chevrolet Caprice drivetrain? 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.
