Can Volkswagen drivetrain maintenance help me 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.

How do I know if my Volkswagen drivetrain is damaged?

Noises toward the back of your Volkswagen Arteon, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often will I need Volkswagen Arteon 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 Arteon’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

If your Arteon has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can my Arteon malfunction warning light be reset 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 Arteon'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 Arteon.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Arteon?

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Arteon. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Arteon.

Does my Arteon transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Arteon’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Arteon forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2022 Volkswagen Arteon

Your Arteon drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Volkswagen, from back to front.

Care for your 2022 Volkswagen Arteon to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Volkswagen's recommendations.
