What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2013 Jaguar XK

Your XK’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Jaguar, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2013 Jaguar XK to maintain its performance power. Follow Jaguar's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

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