What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2013 Lexus IS F

Your IS F drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It's one of the most complex systems in your IS F and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you tune into you 2013 Lexus IS F drivetrain, you help maintain your vehicle’s overall power. Follow Lexus's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

  •  Can Lexus drivetrain maintenance help me save money? Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.
  • How do I know if my Lexus drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your Lexus IS F, 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 will I need Lexus IS F 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 the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my IS F? If your IS F 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 clear the IS F check engine light on your own? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your IS F’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.
  • Is a drivetrain malfunction in my IS F serious? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your IS F, 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 IS F drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your IS F’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your IS F forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
