What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon

Your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Ford, from back to front. It’s one of your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Ford's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon might need 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. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. A lot depends on your driving style and climate. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon doesn’t drive like it used to.

How much does it cost to fix your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. But bigger repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.

  • How does Ford 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 the symptoms of a damaged Ford drivetrain system? Noises toward the back of your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon, 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 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon 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 E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? If your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon 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 my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon malfunction warning light be reset at home? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’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 E-350 Econoline Club Wagon? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon.
  • Does my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon. 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.
