What are signs my Chevrolet drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your Chevrolet Lumina? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

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

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally 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 causes a Lumina’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

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

Can you clear the Lumina check engine light on your 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 Lumina'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 Lumina.

How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my Lumina?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your Lumina, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Does my Lumina drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your Lumina. The drivetrain is the system of components that delivers power from the engine to the wheels to propel the vehicle forward. It includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.

2000 Chevrolet Lumina Drivetrain Service

Your Lumina 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: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2000 Chevrolet Lumina, 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 Lumina Drivetrain Repairs

Your Chevrolet Lumina may need driveshaft attention if you feel clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards.
