All About 2006 Saturn Relay Drivetrain Service

Your Relay drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Saturn, from back to front. It's one of the most complex systems in your Relay and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2006 Saturn Relay, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Saturn's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are Saturn Relay Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2006 Saturn Relay drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Saturn Relay may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Saturn Relay drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2006 Saturn Relay? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. Major repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.

Saturn Relay Drivetrain Q&A

Drivetrain problems mean driving problems. Get answers to common drivetrain questions and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for drivetrain help.

  • How does Saturn drivetrain maintenance help save money? Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.
  • What are signs my Saturn drivetrain is damaged? Noises toward the back of your Saturn Relay, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need Saturn Relay 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 Relay malfunction indicator light (MIL) on? The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Relay can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.
  • Can you clear the Relay check engine light on your own? It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your Relay, but it's important to resist the urge. The check engine light is designed to warn you of potential problems with your vehicle, and resetting the light without fixing the underlying issue could lead to further damage or safety issues. The best course of action is to bring your Relay to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for diagnostics and repairs.
  • How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Relay? Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Relay. 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 Relay.
  • Does my Relay drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your Relay. 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.
