Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

Does my XC60 transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your XC60’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your XC60 forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
