Mercedes Benz C280
W202 97 c280
So we were talking about a 6 speed manual tranny for the W202 in another thread and there was some debate. I contacted AMG and they stated there was NEVER a manual tranny put into an AMG BY AMG, they would not confirm or deny that 6 speed trannys were used in W202. I found this article which BLEW MY MIND!!!
At the launch all W202 variants were equipped with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The 722.4 4-speed automatic transmission, also called 4G-TRONIC, was available as extra cost (standard on the C 36 AMG). In 1996 this old transmission - which was on sale since 1981 - was replaced by a 5-speed automatic gearbox (aka 722.5 or 5G-TRONIC), which received the manual shifting in 1999 (722.6). In 2000 the T-Modell, the only still on sale, was equipped with the G56 6-speed manual transmission.
Whats that you say????? A MANUAL 6 SPEED MADE FOR THE W202!!!! Anyone ever seen one of these???? Would it bolt right up??? I swear I have seen someone on this forum with the C43-T model, can you chime in here PLEASE.
