Your drive shaft is an important feature of your vehicle. It transfers the power created from your engine to propel your vehicle. While there is no set lifespan for a drive shaft, in most cases they will last for about 120,000 kilometres.
Book your drive shaft maintenance at one of National Transmission’s 5 locations across Southern Alberta.
The noises could be rattling or clunking sounds when your vehicle is moving, or hearing a squeaking or 'angry sparrow' sound when your car accelerates or decelerates.
If your drive shaft is in need of repair, you'll notice a more intense shaking than normal when accelerating and driving at higher speeds.
