All About 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Range Rover's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Land Rover, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 2012 Land Rover Range Rover to maintain its performance power. Follow Land Rover's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Land Rover Range Rover Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2012 Land Rover Range Rover drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Land Rover could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Land Rover Range Rover drives.

How much does it cost to fix your 2012 Land Rover Range Rover drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
