What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2009 Lincoln Town Car

Your Town Car drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Lincoln, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your Town Car’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2009 Lincoln Town Car, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Lincoln's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are Lincoln Town Car Drivetrain Repairs

You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2009 Lincoln Town Car drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Lincoln Town Car may need driveshaft attention if you feel clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards.

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 Lincoln Town Car drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2009 Lincoln Town Car? Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, are usually pretty affordable.
