Your IS350 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2015 Lexus IS350, 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 Lexus's recommendations.
