This page lists 111 drivetrain parts for the 2016 Toyota Highlander, across 16 part types, covering all 3 engine options (2.7L L4, 3.5L V6 and 3.5L V6 ELECTRIC/GAS). Every part shows its brand, manufacturer part number and fitment notes.

Most of the listed parts are CV Axle (36 parts), Gear Oil (13 parts) and Drive Shaft Center Support Bearing (12 parts). The other 13 part types cover the remaining 50 parts.

This table covers the seals at the Transfer Case Output Shaft. Typical signs include a wet housing, a drip after sitting, or fluid flung off a rotating shaft. Fix the surface the seal rides on. A new seal on a grooved shaft will leak again.

Buying Drivetrain Parts for a 2016 Toyota Highlander

On this vehicle, the drivetrain system moves power from transmission to wheels through axles, CV joints, driveshafts, differentials and wheel-end hardware.

  • Match the engine first. Some drivetrain parts fit every engine; others are engine-specific. Each row shows which engine(s) it fits.
  • Read the notes on each row for position, trim and spec qualifiers before you order.
  • Where labor overlaps, replace the differential or transfer-case fluid with any axle or seal job while everything is already open.
  • Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against your old part or a service-manual listing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many drivetrain parts fit the 2016 Toyota Highlander?

Our catalog currently lists 111 drivetrain parts for the 2016 Toyota Highlander across 16 subcategories and 25 brands, covering all 3 engine options (2.7L L4, 3.5L V6 and 3.5L V6 ELECTRIC/GAS). Each part is matched to the engine(s) it fits.

Do drivetrain parts differ between 2016 Toyota Highlander engines?

Some do. 33 parts fit every engine; the other 78 are engine-specific. Each row (and the filter at the top) shows which. If you're unsure which engine you have, check the emissions label under the hood or the 8th character of your VIN.

What are the signs of drivetrain problems on a 2016 Toyota Highlander?

Common symptoms include clicking in tight turns, a clunk when shifting between drive and reverse, vibration that builds with speed, or gear oil on the inside of a wheel. If you notice any of these, identify the affected subcategory above and cross-reference the part numbers listed.

What should I replace at the same time?

Where labor overlaps, replace the differential or transfer-case fluid with any axle or seal job while everything is already open.

What do the market flags (US, CA, MX) on each part mean?

They show the market for which the manufacturer published application data for that part — where the vehicle was first sold, not where the part was made. If your 2016 Toyota Highlander was originally sold in the US, the safest choice is a part marked for the US market.

How do I make sure a part fits my 2016 Toyota Highlander?

First match the engine — each row shows which engine(s) the part fits. Then a torn CV boot caught early is a cheap boot kit; caught late it is a whole axle — inspect before deciding which to buy. The notes column carries position and trim qualifiers where they apply.
