Differential 101

Although we’re happy to talk with you about the specifics of your vehicle, its differential(s), and necessary repairs, we’re also glad to provide some general information here. A differential provides the torque needed to allow two wheels on an axle to go in the same direction during a turn, even though they’re rotating at different speeds. Your automobile has at least one of these components and may have more. Four-wheel drive transportation has two–one per axle–and all-wheel drive models typically have three. Also, there are three kinds of differentials. An open differential is the most common, used in various applications. However, it can slip, so it’s unsuitable for hot rodding or off-roading. Using a built-in clutch mechanism, a limited-slip differential is comparable to the open type but can lock for better traction. SUVs and other demanding vehicles benefit from this design. Finally, the torque-vectoring differential operates using sensors. The differential can adjust based on information gathered from the road surface, steering system, and engine. Obviously, this is desirable for safety and traction. If your auto’s differential is causing trouble, our team will provide the information you need to help you make an informed decision about whether it’s better to repair or replace the problematic component.
