2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your GLA45 AMG's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Mercedes-Benz's recommendations.

Your Mercedes-Benz could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." A lot depends on your driving style and climate.

How much does it cost to fix your 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like seal or gasket replacement, are usually pretty affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.

  • Can Mercedes-Benz 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 signs my Mercedes-Benz drivetrain is damaged? Hear noises toward the back of your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 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.
  • How often will I need Mercedes-Benz GLA45 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.
  • What causes a GLA45 AMG’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? If your GLA45 AMG has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.
  • Can you clear the GLA45 AMG check engine light on your own? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your GLA45 AMG’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.
  • How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my GLA45 AMG? If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your GLA45 AMG, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.
  • Is my GLA45 AMG’s transmission part of the drivetrain? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your GLA45 AMG’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your GLA45 AMG forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
