What's the difference between the three? What are the advantages and disadvatages of each system? Any additional maintenance issues with them and should you have dfferent driving styles?
So far I know that RWD has a prop and differential and that its the rear wheels that are powered. Don't know the purpose of the prop and differential. I also know that AWD acts like a 4x4, distributes power to all 4 wheels, when the wheel sensors detect slipping. Don't know if its the front or rear wheels that is powered the rest of the time. Lastly, I kow that with FWD, the front wheels get power directly from the engine.
