2006 Chevrolet Impala Drivetrain Service

Your Impala drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. 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 2006 Chevrolet Impala, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Chevrolet's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Chevrolet Impala Drivetrain Repairs

You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2006 Chevrolet Impala drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Impala might need driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning.
