2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport Drivetrain Service

Your Discovery Sport’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Land Rover, from back to front. It’s one of your Discovery Sport’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport, 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 Land Rover's recommendations.

When to Get Land Rover Discovery Sport 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 come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Land Rover Discovery Sport may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. 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 Land Rover Discovery Sport drives.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport drivetrain repair is expensive. Some smaller differential fixes, like seal or gasket replacement, are usually pretty affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.

Questions About 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport

Drivetrain problems mean driving problems. Get answers to common drivetrain questions and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for drivetrain help.

  • Can Land Rover service save me money? Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.
  • What are signs my Land Rover drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your Land Rover Discovery Sport, 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 Land Rover Discovery Sport differential service? Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we 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 the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Discovery Sport? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Discovery Sport’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can you clear the Discovery Sport check engine light on your own? Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.
  • Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Discovery Sport serious? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your Discovery Sport, 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 Discovery Sport transmission belong to the drivetrain system? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Discovery Sport’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Discovery Sport forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
