What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2014 Jaguar XK

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your XK's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Jaguar, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your XK and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2014 Jaguar XK, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Jaguar's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
