Reconditioned Mercedes Classe A 2.0 Gearbox – 5-Speed Manual – Ref. 716521

Reconditioned Mercedes Classe A 2.0 Petrol Gearbox 716521

This reconditioned gearbox fits Mercedes Classe A models equipped with the 2.0 Petrol engine of 1991 cm³, compatible with engine codes M266.960 and M266.980, under reference 716521. It is fully stripped, cleaned and inspected before internal wear components — including gears, synchros, bearings and seals — are replaced as required. It is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested prior to dispatch, ensuring performance that matches the original specification. It is suitable for both garages and private customers looking for a reliable, ready-to-fit unit requiring no additional machining.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On a Classe A fitted with this 5-speed manual gearbox, several warning signs point to advanced wear: stiff or jerky gear changes, crunching when downshifting, a difficult gear lever, or a grinding neutral. Clutch judder, a reverse gear that refuses to engage, or unusual vibrations whilst driving are also telltale signs. An oil leak from the casing should also raise the alarm, before the original reference 716521 suffers more serious — and more costly — damage.

Exchange Basis – No Need to Take Your Vehicle Off the Road

This gearbox is sold on an exchange basis: it is rebuilt to 0 km and dispatched before the old unit is collected. The garage receives the reconditioned gearbox first and can fit it straight away, avoiding any unnecessary downtime whilst waiting for a return. The old gearbox, with its casing intact, is only collected after the reconditioned unit has been delivered and installed. Return of the old unit is required, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.
