Why Lexington drivers book mobile differential & transfer case service

Lexington is barbecue country on I-85, east of Salisbury. It's at the edge of our hour, and we still make the run. That's exactly the situation mobile drivetrain work solves: the mechanic comes to the vehicle, so a car that shouldn't be driven doesn't have to be.

What's included

If you tow, haul, or drive an AWD vehicle, the differentials and transfer case are working hard and their gear oil needs to be changed on schedule. Whining from the rear at speed or a clunk on takeoff are signs it's overdue. We drain, inspect the oil for metal, and refill with the correct weight and limited-slip additive where required.

  1. Drain and inspect old fluid for metal or water
  2. Replace the cover gasket or drain plug crush washer
  3. Refill with the correct gear oil and friction modifier if limited-slip
  4. Check pinion and axle seals for leaks

Signs it's time

  • Whining from the rear at highway speed
  • Clunk on takeoff or when shifting
  • Fluid leak at the axle or pinion seal
  • You tow or drive gravel regularly
  • Past the interval
