Can Kia service save me money?

Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.

What are the symptoms of a damaged Kia drivetrain system?

Noises toward the back of your Kia Sedona, 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 should I come in for Kia Sedona 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.

Why is my Sedona malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

If your Sedona 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 reset your Sedona’s malfunction warning light at home?

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your Sedona, but it's important to resist the urge. The check engine light is designed to warn you of potential problems with your vehicle, and resetting the light without fixing the underlying issue could lead to further damage or safety issues. The best course of action is to bring your Sedona to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for diagnostics and repairs.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Sedona?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your Sedona, 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 Sedona transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Sedona’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Sedona forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

All About 2010 Kia Sedona Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Sedona's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Kia, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your Sedona’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2010 Kia Sedona, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Kia's recommendations.

What Are Kia Sedona Drivetrain Repairs

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 go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2010 Kia Sedona drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Kia Sedona may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. A lot depends on your driving style and climate. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Kia Sedona drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2010 Kia Sedona? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. Major repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
