Can Mercedes-Benz drivetrain maintenance help me save money?

Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.

What are the symptoms of a damaged Mercedes-Benz drivetrain system?

Hear noises toward the back of your Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

When should I come in for Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

Why is my E63 AMG malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

A multitude of problems can activate your E63 AMG’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.

Can you reset your E63 AMG’s malfunction warning light 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 E63 AMG's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your E63 AMG.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my E63 AMG serious?

If your E63 AMG has a drivetrain malfunction, don't wait. Get it checked out by a professional mechanic. Identifying the underlying cause and performing the appropriate repairs right away can help prevent further damage and avoid unsafe driving conditions.

Does my E63 AMG transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your E63 AMG’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your E63 AMG forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG

Your E63 AMG drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Mercedes-Benz, from back to front. It’s one of your E63 AMG’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Mercedes-Benz's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2012 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
