Hello,
I have an M47 gearbox in the UK as is very common on my 1986 740GLE estate and can say that it works perfectly. I purchased the car at 135,000 miles and it has now done 155,000 miles now. I did change and overfill the gearbox oil as insurance. It was filthy. I did the axle oil while I was about it too. It was pretty clean.
My Dad has a 1985 240GL saloon with an M47 also and that is still working perfectly even at 205,000 miles. It has a carbed B230A engine. KYLE123 (James)
