A differential is a key component in a vehicle, primarily located in the axle, that helps in the smooth turning of the wheels at different speeds. It balances the difference in wheel speed between the front and rear wheels, especially when turning.
The rear differential is part of the drivetrain, located between the rear wheels of a vehicle. It’s responsible for transmitting engine power to the wheels while allowing them to rotate at different speeds during turns.
Bad differential symptoms include unusual noises (like whining, howling, or clunking), vibration while driving, and the vehicle pulling to one side. If you experience these issues, it’s advisable to seek assistance from Grease Pro for a thorough inspection.
Rear differential damage can be caused by lack of lubrication, rough driving, and normal wear and tear. Regular differential fluid changes at Grease Pro can help prevent this.
The cost to replace a rear differential can vary based on the vehicle model and extent of damage. For an accurate estimate, consider scheduling a service with Grease Pro, where experts can assess your vehicle’s specific needs.
