2016 Toyota Corolla Drivetrain Service

Your Corolla 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 one of the most complex systems in your Corolla and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2016 Toyota Corolla, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Toyota's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.
