What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2000 Lincoln Continental

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Continental's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Lincoln, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2000 Lincoln Continental to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Lincoln's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

Lincoln Continental 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 go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2000 Lincoln Continental drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Lincoln could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Lincoln Continental doesn’t drive like it used to.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2000 Lincoln Continental? Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
