How often should I come in for Suzuki SX4 differential service?

All About 2007 Suzuki SX4 Drivetrain Service

Your SX4’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Suzuki, from back to front.

Care for your 2007 Suzuki SX4 to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Suzuki's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
