What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1999 Mercury Sable

Your Sable drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Mercury, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 1999 Mercury Sable to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Mercury's recommendations.

Questions About 1999 Mercury Sable

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? 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.
  • How do I know if my Mercury drivetrain is damaged? Your Mercury Sable drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.
  • How often will I need Mercury Sable differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Sable? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Sable’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can my Sable malfunction warning light be reset at home? Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.
  • Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Sable serious? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Sable. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Sable.
  • Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Sable? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your Sable. 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.
