What is the Driveshaft all about?

The driveshaft transmits the power (torque) created by the engine to the front (front wheel-drive), rear (rear wheel-drive), or front and rear (four wheel-drive) of the vehicle as required. A 4WD vehicle may have two driveshafts.

Keep in mind:

  • A four wheel-drive vehicle may have two driveshafts, in which case you may only need one replaced.
  • A vehicle with modified height will run a greater risk of having a damaged driveshaft.
  • When your driveshaft is replaced, all other components should be checked for quality, and the U-joints should be properly lubricated.
  • In some vehicles, it is more straightforward and affordable to replace the entire driveshaft than to replace a single component.

How it's done:

  • Remove and replace drive shaft.
  • Perform basic safety inspection.
  • Test drive the vehicle.

Our recommendation:

When applicable, make sure all U-joints are lubricated during a major service. This will extend the life of your driveshaft.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Driveshaft?

  • A clunking noise when you accelerate or shift between drive and reverse.
  • Vibration when driving.
  • Squeaking noise while driving.

How important is this service?

A driveshaft is responsible for transferring power from a vehicle’s transmission to its wheels. The driveshaft receives the torque from the transmission, and uses it to turn the wheels. As the driveshaft gets damaged, it doesn’t do its job as well, which puts undue pressure on other parts of the vehicle, which can cause damage. When the driveshaft ceases working entirely, the vehicle won’t be able to send power to the wheels, and you won’t be able to drive.

BMW X5 V8-4.4L Turbo - Brake Pads Replacement (Rear) - Jenks, Oklahoma
Walter was great and knowledgeable as a mechanic. Replaced my brake pads with no problems. Very nice and friendly person. However, he needs to work on his time. It was very understandable about the weather putting him behind on his appointments which caused him to be late on the first appt. and I suggested that he not come out because it was getting too late. Being more conscience of time and building repour with the customer needs to have more balance. Focusing on the job will help him catch up with his jobs . The 1 1/2 hour job turned into a 3 hour job. If I need something else done on my car, I would definitely request him. I will just make sure I have plenty of time to sit and chat with him along with him working on my vehicle.
