Can Peugeot service save me money?

Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.

What are signs my Peugeot drivetrain is damaged?

Noises toward the back of your Peugeot 604, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

When should I come in for Peugeot 604 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.

Why is my 604 malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your 604’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Is it possible to reset the 604 malfunction warning light on my own?

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.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my 604?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your 604, 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 the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my 604?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your 604 includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your 604 forward.

All About 1983 Peugeot 604 Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your 604's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Peugeot, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your 604 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 1983 Peugeot 604 to maintain its performance power. Follow Peugeot's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.
