All About 1995 Pontiac Firebird Drivetrain Service

Your Firebird drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Pontiac, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your Firebird’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1995 Pontiac Firebird, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Pontiac's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Your Pontiac Firebird may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates.
