What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis

Your Grand Marquis drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Mercury, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your Grand Marquis’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Mercury's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Mercury Grand Marquis Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Grand Marquis might need driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. So much depends on the climate and your driving style.

How much does it cost to fix your 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. Major repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.

Questions About 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis

Drivetrain problems mean driving problems. Get answers to common drivetrain questions and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for drivetrain help.

  • Can Mercury service save me 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 Mercury drivetrain system? Noises toward the back of your Mercury Grand Marquis, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need Mercury Grand Marquis differential service? Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally 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 Grand Marquis’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? A multitude of problems can activate your Grand Marquis’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 Grand Marquis’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 Grand Marquis'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 Grand Marquis.
  • How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my Grand Marquis? A drivetrain malfunction in your Grand Marquis should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.
  • Is my Grand Marquis’s transmission part of the drivetrain? The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Grand Marquis is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
