Maintain your drivetrain to help maintain vehicle power. Our technicians are trained to perform 2012 Mercedes-Benz S400 drivetrain services. Schedule your appointment today.
The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your S400's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Mercedes-Benz, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2012 Mercedes-Benz S400, 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.
Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2012 Mercedes-Benz S400 drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your S400 might need driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." A lot depends on your driving style and climate. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Mercedes-Benz S400 doesn’t drive like it used to.
How much does it cost to fix your 2012 Mercedes-Benz S400 drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Major repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.
