All About 2005 Mitsubishi Galant Drivetrain Service

Your Galant’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Mitsubishi, from the axles to the transmission. 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 2005 Mitsubishi Galant, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Mitsubishi's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
