Whining on top gear, a clunk when reversing or an oil pool under the box are classic signs that an M45 is starting to wear out. This category brings together the internal parts needed when the four-speed manual gearbox in the Volvo 240/260 is to be rebuilt or sealed, so the job can be done systematically rather than part by part.

The group includes gears, reverse gear and drive gears that take up the load, roller bearings that control the play of the shafts, and clutch sleeves for the synchronization. For sealing and fit there are seals, gaskets and shims. A typical checkpoint during disassembly is precisely the roller bearings and the seals – leakage at the output shaft and noise from the bearings are among the things that most often force a rebuild.
The selection covers the parts in the M45 box that was fitted in the 240 and 260 series; always check that the design and tooth count match your existing gearbox.
