Mercedes truck gearbox

Mercedes Truck Gearbox

The Mercedes gearbox is an essential component of your truck. It converts the engine's power into motion and determines how smoothly and efficiently you can drive. At BAS Parts & Tyres, you will find a wide range of gearboxes for various Mercedes models, ensuring you can always choose the right gearbox for your truck.

Types of Mercedes Gearboxes

Manual Gearboxes

Manual gearboxes give you full control over the gears. They are robust and reliable, ideal for drivers accustomed to traditional shifting or frequently driving in heavy traffic. Regular maintenance of the clutch and shifting mechanism is important.

Automatic Gearboxes (Mercedes PowerShift / G-TRONIC)

Automatic gearboxes such as PowerShift or G-TRONIC shift independently without the need to operate the clutch. They improve driving comfort, save fuel, and reduce clutch wear. They are especially suitable for long-distance transport and international traffic.

Refurbished and Used Gearboxes

Our refurbished Mercedes gearboxes are inspected, repaired where necessary, and performance-tested. This ensures a reliable gearbox at a lower price than new, ideal for older trucks or as a replacement for a defective gearbox.
