1998 Chrysler Cirrus Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Cirrus's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Chrysler, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Cirrus and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 1998 Chrysler Cirrus to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Chrysler's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are Chrysler Cirrus Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 1998 Chrysler Cirrus drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Chrysler could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. 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. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Chrysler Cirrus drives.

How much does it cost to fix your 1998 Chrysler Cirrus drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like seal or gasket replacement, are usually pretty affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.

1998 Chrysler Cirrus Drivetrain Questions

Drivetrain problems mean driving problems. Get answers to common drivetrain questions and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for drivetrain help.

  • How does Chrysler drivetrain maintenance help save money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • What are signs my Chrysler drivetrain is damaged? Hear noises toward the back of your Chrysler Cirrus? 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 will I need Chrysler Cirrus 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 Cirrus? If your Cirrus has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.
  • Can you clear the Cirrus 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 Cirrus’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 Cirrus? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your Cirrus, 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 Cirrus transmission belong to the drivetrain system? The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Cirrus is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
