2004 Toyota Celica Drivetrain Service

Your Celica drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Toyota, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2004 Toyota Celica, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Toyota's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are Toyota Celica Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2004 Toyota Celica drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Toyota Celica may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. A lot depends on your driving style and climate. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Toyota Celica doesn’t drive like it used to.

How much does it cost to fix your 2004 Toyota Celica drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, are usually pretty affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
