Differential Service

Your vehicle's differential is the gearbox that sits between your car's drive wheels and gives them the ability to turn at different speeds, such as when you turn a corner. The fluid lubricating the differential breaks down over time and with use, which hampers its ability to do its job and keep your gears running smoothly.

Differential fluid is much like engine oil in this respect, though a differential fluid change is a much less common service. Leaving your vehicle with gummy, broken-down fluid can cause damage to your gears, so it's a good idea to keep an eye on your differential fluid to see if it needs to be replaced.

When do I need to get differential fluid service?

It depends on the vehicle, but the range is anywhere from every 15,000 miles to every 50,000 miles. Our team can check your differential fluid periodically to see if it needs to be changed. We're here to make sure that your vehicle's differential, as well as all the other parts of your car, work properly.
