How often will I need Chevrolet Spark differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Spark?

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

Can you clear the Spark check engine light on your own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Spark’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Spark?

Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Does my Spark transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your Spark 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 Spark forward.

All About 2014 Chevrolet Spark Drivetrain Service

Your Spark 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: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2014 Chevrolet Spark, 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.

When to Get Chevrolet Spark 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 visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2014 Chevrolet Spark drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Spark might need driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. 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. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Chevrolet Spark.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2014 Chevrolet Spark drivetrain repair is expensive. Again, it depends!
