Can my 300CE malfunction warning light be reset at home?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your 300CE's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue.

Is my 300CE’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your 300CE. The drivetrain is the system of components that delivers power from the engine to the wheels to propel the vehicle forward. It includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
