What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2016 Volkswagen Eos

Your Eos’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It's one of the most complex systems in your Eos and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2016 Volkswagen Eos 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.

It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Volkswagen Eos doesn’t drive like it used to.
