Do You Know the Symptoms of a Failing Driveshaft
2
The drivetrain system of your car is responsible
for allowing your car to shift from idle to drive
condition.
3
The driveshafts are an important part of a car
which delivers power from the engine to the rear
wheels.
4
A small damage to the driveshaft is not
traceable and failure can be disastrous when at
high speeds.
5
It may look like buying new tires should be an
easy task, but there are several things to
consider to be able to drive away with confidence.
6
So, it is required to be aware of the common
symptoms of a failing driveshaft and get it
repaired at the earliest.
Some of the commonly occurring symptoms because
of a failing driveshaft are mentioned below
Excessive vibrations
Awkward sounds
Transmission leaks
Difficulty in driving
7
Excessive vibrations
8
The driveshafts are meant to balance the car and
avoid vibrations, so any unusual shaking is an
indication of a bad driveshaft.
9
Especially, the vibrations coming from below the
car indicate a bad U-joint that holds the
driveshaft.
10
Such vibrations must be repaired otherwise it may
result in your driveshaft to fall out.
11
Awkward sounds
12
A bad driveshaft give rise to clunking and
scraping sounds as the car is imbalanced.
13
These sounds originate because the driveshaft
stops rotating properly.
14
A squeaking noise at low speeds is mainly caused
by a non-lubricated U-joint.
15
Transmission leaks
16
The vibrations due to a failing driveshaft result
in damage to other parts of your car like the
transmission.
17
The transmission fluid starts to leak out of the
chamber and it can be noticed in the parking
area.
18
A driveshaft which moves more freely, causes
fluid to leak from the rear of the transmission.
19
Difficulty in driving
20
A failing driveshaft restricts the wheels from
clear turning and makes it difficult to control
the car.
21
The car also starts to jerk to a stop and stops
moving under its own power like the driveshaft is
being dragged.
22
So, when you feel like shuddering when
accelerating from low speed, then get the
driveshaft inspected and repair or replace it, if
needed.
