What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2019 Mazda 6

Your 6 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Mazda, from back to front. It's one of the most complex systems in your 6 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2019 Mazda 6, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Mazda's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

When to Get Mazda 6 Drivetrain Repairs

Your 6 might need driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards.
