Our Mazda service experts want to ensure that Mazda car drivers are familiar with their vehicle’s driveline system. The services for your Mazda car’s driveline will vary. Regular maintenance and service are also vital to keep your vehicle working efficiently. Learn more about your Mazda vehicle’s driveline and its unique maintenance requirements.
What is a Driveline?
Your car’s driveline transfers power from the transmission and engine to your vehicle’s wheels. The system consists of axles, a driveshaft, joints, wheels, and differentials. The parts of a driveline will vary due to the differing drivetrains of your vehicle, including:
- i-ACTIV AWD®
- Four-wheel drive
- Front-wheel drive
- Rear-wheel drive
The drivetrains are equipped with different parts that require varying services and repairs. We recommend reviewing your vehicle’s owner’s manual for the recommended maintenance schedule.
The Importance of Driveline Maintenance
Maintenance of your car’s driveline is vital for your vehicle to be powered and run efficiently. If regular maintenance is not done, this will lead to more significant problems and repairs that will prove to be costly. The driveline is essential to your vehicle, so it’s vital to ensure it isn’t overlooked during maintenance checks.
