What are the symptoms of a damaged Subaru drivetrain system?

Noises toward the back of your Subaru BRZ, 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 should I come in for Subaru BRZ differential service?

We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

What causes a BRZ’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

If your BRZ has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can you clear the BRZ check engine light on your own?

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your BRZ, 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 BRZ to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for diagnostics and repairs.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my BRZ serious?

A drivetrain malfunction in your BRZ should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Does my BRZ drivetrain include the transmission?

The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your BRZ is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.

2020 Subaru BRZ Drivetrain Service

Your BRZ’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2020 Subaru BRZ to maintain its performance power. Follow Subaru's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are Subaru BRZ Drivetrain Repairs

So much depends on the climate and your driving style. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Subaru BRZ drives.

How much does it cost to fix your 2020 Subaru BRZ drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like seal or gasket replacement, are usually pretty affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
