Comprehensive 4x4 and All-Wheel Drive Maintenance
When it comes to maintaining your standard 4-wheel drive (4x4) and all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicles, the skilled technicians at Autoworks Service & Repair possess years of experience and specialized knowledge.
AWD systems operate as full-time 4-wheel-drive setups, where all four wheels receive torque from the engine simultaneously. These intricate systems require unique attention, and we're here to cater to their distinct needs. Below are some of the services we offer:
Services We Perform
Differentials
The differential is a key component in your vehicle, allowing wheels to rotate at different speeds, especially important when turning. Regular maintenance of the differential is essential for smooth operation, and our services ensure it performs effectively under all driving conditions.
Hubs, Seals, Studs, & Nuts
We maintain and replace wheel hubs to ensure your vehicle's wheels are securely attached and operate smoothly. Regular checks and replacements of seals protect bearings from contaminants and prevent lubricant leaks. Additionally, we inspect and replace any damaged studs and nuts to maintain the structural integrity of your vehicle's wheels.
Transfer Cases
Essential for 4x4 and AWD vehicles, transfer cases distribute power from the transmission to the front and rear axles. Whether your vehicle uses gears or a chain-driven mechanism, our services ensure efficient power transfer and maintain the reliability of your vehicle's four-wheel-drive capabilities.
Wheel Bearings
Wheel bearings are crucial for smooth wheel operation and are integrated into the vehicle's wheel assembly. They reduce friction and allow free rotation of the wheels, crucial for safe driving. Our services include regular checks and replacement of worn bearings to prevent noise, vibrations, and potential wheel lockup.

4x4 FAQs
Is there a difference between four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive?
Both all-wheel drive (AWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) engage all four wheels, but with a twist. AWD uses three differentials (front, rear, and center) for continuous power distribution, making it ideal for everyday driving with improved traction. 4WD typically uses two differentials and can be switched between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive modes, offering more control for off-road adventures.
Are 4x4 vehicles meant just for off-road driving?
While off-roading is their specialty, 4x4s aren't just for outdoor enthusiasts. Their enhanced grip and stability tackle slippery city streets and uneven landscapes with ease, offering peace of mind for families, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone who values dependable performance in diverse conditions.
Is running a four-wheel drive expensive?
Four-wheel drive fuel economy and maintenance might seem daunting, but it's a nuanced picture. Frequent off-road adventures and towing will impact costs differently than city commutes. Analyze your driving habits and needs before comparing 4x4 and 2 wheel drive costs.

Great service! Justin & crew were respectful, listened to what I had to say, answered all my questions & explained everything. I was having ?low battery? warnings off & on. One place wanted $84 to check my battery. I called Autoworks, talked to Justin, he fit me in, the same day I called. One of the crew check out my battery, said it was OK. Justin was kind enough to explain my car had 2 batteries, & they needed to talk to each other. He had seen this before & did not have the equipment to fix it. He referred me to a garage that did, wrote down the name address & phn # for me. No charge!! The referral was great! About 2 weeks later, my car smelled like something was burning. Again, Justin fit me in, they put it on the rack & checked everything out. They assured me my car was safe to drive. No Charge. It felt like the good old days! Proof that there are sill good people out there to rely on. Thank you from a grateful neighborhood senior citizen!
They were awesome and easy to pick up truck. Great services definitely recommend.
