Volvo 480 gearbox
 

Hello everyone, I am after a gearbox for my 1989 Volvo 480. It is a manual box and its code is M57-407E. Any information or suggestion as to were I could find one would be much appreciated.

what is wrong with it ? most things can be repaired......

Hi Clan, the problem with my box is that I only have 1st and 2nd gear. The box is at 2Spec Transmissions and they have informed me some shaft inside has broken in two. Which according to them is usual. Now for the fun part they cannot get the part to fix it!! Hence I am trying to find another box.

It is a Renault Transaxle , but the ratios and final drive ratio may well be different , might be worth checking .
Also you have an electric speedo sens0r fitted to it hence the E designation . Renault may not have this

Thanks for the information. I've been lucky in finding the correct engine and gearbox on E-Bay. I am waiting for the seller to contact me regards when I can go down and collect it.

Hi Clan, it's been sometime since I last posted an update on the gearbox from my Volvo 480. Thought you would be interested in the attached picture showing the broken shaft.
