1989 Suzuki Swift Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Swift's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Suzuki, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your Swift’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 1989 Suzuki Swift to maintain its performance power. Follow Suzuki's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

Your Swift might need driveshaft repair if you notice heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates.
