All About 2021 Porsche Cayenne Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Cayenne's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Porsche, from back to front. It’s one of your Cayenne’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2021 Porsche Cayenne, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Porsche's recommendations.
