How does Volvo drivetrain maintenance help save money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are signs my Volvo drivetrain is damaged?

Noises toward the back of your Volvo S60 Cross Country, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

When should I come in for Volvo S60 Cross Country 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.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my S60 Cross Country?

If your S60 Cross Country 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 you clear the S60 Cross Country check engine light on your own?

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 S60 Cross Country'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 S60 Cross Country.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my S60 Cross Country?

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your S60 Cross Country. 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 S60 Cross Country.

Does my S60 Cross Country drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your S60 Cross Country’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your S60 Cross Country forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2018 Volvo S60 Cross Country

Your S60 Cross Country’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Volvo, from the axles to the transmission. It’s one of your S60 Cross Country’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2018 Volvo S60 Cross Country, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Volvo's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

When to Get Volvo S60 Cross Country 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 help repair all of your 2018 Volvo S60 Cross Country drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Volvo S60 Cross Country may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning.
