What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2009 Land Rover LR3

Your LR3’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your LR3’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2009 Land Rover LR3 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.
