Can Land Rover service save me money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are signs my Land Rover drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your Land Rover Discovery? 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.

How often should I come in for Land Rover Discovery 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.

What causes a Discovery’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Discovery can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you reset your Discovery’s malfunction warning light at home?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Discovery's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Discovery.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Discovery?

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Discovery. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Discovery.

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Discovery?

Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your Discovery. The drivetrain is the system of components that delivers power from the engine to the wheels to propel the vehicle forward. It includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Discovery's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It's one of the most complex systems in your Discovery and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2002 Land Rover Discovery to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Land Rover's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

Land Rover Discovery 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 visit Firestone Complete Auto Care.
