1994 Chevrolet Lumina APV Drivetrain Service

Your Lumina APV’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Chevrolet, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Lumina APV and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1994 Chevrolet Lumina APV, 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.

When to Get Chevrolet Lumina APV 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 go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 1994 Chevrolet Lumina APV drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Chevrolet Lumina APV may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. 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. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Chevrolet Lumina APV doesn’t drive like it used to.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 1994 Chevrolet Lumina APV drivetrain repair is expensive. Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, are usually pretty affordable. Major repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.

Questions About 1994 Chevrolet Lumina APV

When you have drivetrain problems, you have driving problems. Check out our top 1994 Chevrolet Lumina APV drivetrain Q&A below, and visit your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care with any drivetrain concerns.

  • How does Chevrolet drivetrain maintenance help save money? Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.
  • What are signs my Chevrolet drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your Chevrolet Lumina APV, 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 will I need Chevrolet Lumina APV 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 Lumina APV malfunction indicator light (MIL) on? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Lumina APV’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can you reset your Lumina APV’s malfunction warning light at home? 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.
  • How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Lumina APV? A drivetrain malfunction in your Lumina APV should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.
  • Does my Lumina APV drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the drivetrain system in your Lumina APV 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 Lumina APV forward.
