2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara Drivetrain Service

Your Grand Vitara drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Suzuki, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Grand Vitara and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Suzuki's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

  • How does Suzuki drivetrain maintenance help save money? Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.
  • What are signs my Suzuki drivetrain is damaged? Your Suzuki Grand Vitara drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.
  • When should I come in for Suzuki Grand Vitara 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.
  • What causes a Grand Vitara’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Grand Vitara’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can you reset your Grand Vitara’s malfunction warning light at home? While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Grand Vitara's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Grand Vitara.
  • How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Grand Vitara? A drivetrain malfunction in your Grand Vitara 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.
  • Is my Grand Vitara’s transmission part of the drivetrain? Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Grand Vitara’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Grand Vitara forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
