Can Chevrolet service save me money?

Noises toward the back of your Chevrolet K1500, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often should I come in for Chevrolet K1500 differential service?

We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my K1500?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your K1500 can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you reset your K1500’s malfunction warning light 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 K1500'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 K1500.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my K1500?

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my K1500?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your K1500’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your K1500 forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1993 Chevrolet K1500, 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 Chevrolet's recommendations.
