What are signs my Isuzu drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your Isuzu Oasis? 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.

When should I come in for Isuzu Oasis differential service?

Is it possible to reset the Oasis malfunction warning light on my own?

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your Oasis, but it's important to resist the urge.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1998 Isuzu Oasis

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Oasis's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Isuzu, from back to front. It’s one of your Oasis’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1998 Isuzu Oasis, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Isuzu's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

Isuzu Oasis 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 Isuzu Oasis drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Isuzu could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice 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. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." So much depends on the climate and your driving style. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Isuzu Oasis drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 1998 Isuzu Oasis? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.
