1998 Lincoln Town Car Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Town Car's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Lincoln, from the axles to the transmission. 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 1998 Lincoln Town Car 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.

What Are Lincoln Town Car 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 visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 1998 Lincoln Town Car drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Town Car might need driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Lincoln Town Car.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 1998 Lincoln Town Car? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, are usually pretty affordable. Major repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.

Lincoln Town Car Drivetrain Q&A

When you have drivetrain problems, you have driving problems. Check out our top 1998 Lincoln Town Car drivetrain Q&A below, and visit your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care with any drivetrain concerns.

  • Can Lincoln service save me money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • What are the symptoms of a damaged Lincoln drivetrain system? Noises toward the back of your Lincoln Town Car, 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 should I come in for Lincoln Town Car differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is my Town Car malfunction indicator light (MIL) on? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Town Car’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can you clear the Town Car check engine light on your own? Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.
  • Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Town Car serious? A drivetrain malfunction in your Town Car should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.
  • Is my Town Car’s transmission part of the drivetrain? The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Town Car is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
