Fiat Tempra

Fiat Tempra drivetrain

The Fiat Tempra is a classic model in which a properly functioning drivetrain is crucial for both driving comfort and road safety. As specialists in the drivetrain, we understand how vital it is that every component, from the gearbox to the wheel hub, works together smoothly without friction or strange noises. The power transmission in a Fiat Tempra is subjected to heavy loads every time you pull away, brake or accelerate, meaning wear parts will inevitably need attention sooner or later. Choosing the right spare parts extends your car's lifespan and preserves its original handling. We have gathered the most critical components so you can easily maintain your car's drive system with parts of premium quality and the exact specifications for your model year and engine variant. Investing in the correct parts right from the start saves both time and money in the long run.

How the drivetrain is engineered on the Fiat Tempra

The drivetrain on the Fiat Tempra is built on a proven front-wheel-drive layout with a transversely mounted engine. Power is transferred from the gearbox via two drive shafts to the front wheels, requiring flexibility for both suspension travel and steering. Each drive shaft is fitted with two joints: an inner CV joint for the Fiat Tempra mounted closest to the gearbox, which accommodates axial movement as the wheels travel up and down, and an outer CV joint that allows large angular changes at the wheels during steering. This layout is efficient, but it also means that CV boots and joints are constantly exposed to dirt, water and mechanical wear. In addition, many versions of the Tempra are equipped with ABS rings fitted directly to the outer joints to supply the braking system with essential wheel-speed data, making them an integral part of the modern drivetrain's operation.

Common faults and symptoms

There are several clear signs that the drivetrain on your Fiat Tempra is wearing out and needs attention. One of the most typical symptoms is a rhythmic clicking or knocking noise clearly heard on full steering lock under acceleration; this almost invariably indicates that an outer CV joint is worn or has lost its lubrication due to a split CV boot. If you instead experience vibrations through the entire body shell under acceleration, particularly at speeds between 50 and 90 km/h, the inner constant velocity joint could be the culprit. Another frequent issue is an illuminated ABS warning light or unusual brake-pedal pulsing during low-speed braking. This is often caused by a cracked or heavily corroded ABS ring providing inaccurate wheel-speed signals to the control unit. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to total driveline failure, leaving your car stranded.

Common parts to replace on the Fiat Tempra

For the Fiat Tempra, we have identified the most frequently requested components to keep the car's power transmission in top condition. Our range is tailored specifically to meet the demands of natural wear and tear. Here are the core categories we focus on for this model:

• Outer CV joints for Fiat Tempra – We offer 10 different variants to cover all engine options and ABS sensor requirements.
• Inner CV joints for Fiat Tempra – 4 high-quality variants ensuring vibration-free power delivery from the gearbox.
• ABS rings for Fiat Tempra – 4 specific rings to restore precision and safety to your braking system.

These parts are critical for maintaining your vehicle's mechanical reliability. Because the Fiat Tempra was manufactured with varying technical specifications depending on engine size, spline counts (teeth) and joint diameters vary considerably. Our comprehensive range of 18 matched parts is an invaluable resource for finding the exact match for your car.
