Can Chevrolet service save me money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

How do I know if my Chevrolet drivetrain is damaged?

Noises toward the back of your Chevrolet Express 3500, 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 Express 3500 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.

Why is my Express 3500 malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Express 3500’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Is it possible to reset the Express 3500 malfunction warning light on my own?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Express 3500 serious?

If your Express 3500 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 Express 3500 transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your Express 3500 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 Express 3500 forward.
