Signs That It's Time for Differential Service

Your vehicle’s differential is crucial for distributing power between wheels, ensuring smooth turns, and maximizing traction. Over time, differential fluid can degrade, leading to increased friction and potential damage.

Unusual whining or rumbling sounds, especially during turns, could indicate differential issues.

Puddles or signs of leaking fluid near the differential might signal a problem.

Following the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule, typically every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, is important for differential health.

I have been using this shop for years and have always been really pleased with the service. But last week I had an experience that amazed me. I had an issue with my car, brought it in, the guys did multiple checks and didn’t see anything wrong with it. They didn’t charge me anything, and told me I could come get it. Then a few days later I had another issue, they told me to bring it in right away and looked directly at it. It ended up there was a problem, they said it should be covered under warranty and advised me to call the dealer first. They made me feel super welcome, gave me specific tips and advice on how to speak with the dealer, and even arranged a tow truck to pick my car up. They didn’t charge anything for the time it took in helping me with all this and it really made me feel that they were looking out in my best interest as opposed to making money. It has reinforced once again my trust and commitment to always using this shop!

Dropped vehicle off one day. Came back by to get an estimate about when it would be finished, and it had already been completed.

A big thanks to Kevin and the guys who worked on my son’s Subaru. I’m thrilled that when I send him back to college, he won’t break down on the freeway. Head gaskets are nothing to fool around with, and I appreciate the thoroughness in checking out everything else.

Jennie Brown

I’ve been going to Art of Maintenance for about a year. It’s a nice clean shop and everyone I have talked to there was great. They seem to be honest – haven’t tried to talk me into anything I didn’t need. I haven’t had anything too major done there – oil change, windshield wiper repair, new brakes. So far so good!

Renee Landers

Looking for a brake job, they got me in and out in the same day with great service and warranty. I will be back for all my car needs. Thanks Kevin.

Lance Nakamoto

Great service!!!
