All About 2007 Scion tC Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your tC's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Scion, from back to front. It’s one of your tC’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2007 Scion tC, 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 Scion's recommendations.
