Buying a used Mercedes-Benz G-Class differential: what matters
Fitment on a used differential varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
- State whether it's front or rear
- State the engine code if known

Fitment questions
Will a differential from a 2010 G-Class fit my 2015 G-Class?
The W463 generation ran from 1989 right through to 2018, so on paper a 2010 and a 2015 are within the same generation, but Mercedes updated ancillary components and mountings at various points across that long run, including around the 2012 facelift. The engine code is the most important detail here — make sure you supply yours (from the V5 or a VIN check) to the breaker, and ask them to confirm the donor vehicle's code matches before buying. Never assume fitment purely on year.
Does the differential from a W463 G-Class fit the newer W464 G-Class?
The W463 ran until 2018 and the W464 replaced it from 2018 onward, and these are distinct generations with significant driveline differences, so a direct swap is very unlikely. Confirm the exact engine code for both vehicles and check with the breaker against your registration before proceeding. Do not assume cross-generation fitment even if the part looks similar.
Does it matter whether I have a G350d or a G500 when sourcing a differential?
Yes, engine code matters above everything for mechanical parts like differentials — a diesel G350d and a petrol G500 use different engines and are very likely to have different driveline specifications. Give the breaker your engine code from the V5 or a VIN check, not just the badge name, as this is the most reliable way to match the correct unit. Fitment across fuel types should always be confirmed with the breaker against your registration.
Does the trim level affect which differential I need — for example, does a G-Class AMG Line need a different diff to a standard G-Class?
Trim level does not affect differential fitment — AMG Line and equivalent specification packages are cosmetic and equipment upgrades rather than mechanical changes. What matters is the engine code, gearbox type, and year within generation, not the trim badge. Be aware the breaker's donor vehicle may have different interior or exterior trim to yours, but the mechanical part itself should be the same if the engine codes match.
I have a G-Class with a 9-speed automatic — will a diff from an older 7-speed car fit?
Gearbox type is a key fitment factor for differentials, and a change in gearbox generation can affect the output specifications and how the diff interfaces with the rest of the drivetrain. Confirm your exact engine code and gearbox type with the breaker, and ask them to verify the donor vehicle matches both — do not rely on year alone. Whether a specific unit crosses that gearbox boundary is something the breaker must confirm against your registration.
Does it matter if my G-Class differential came from a left-hand-drive European car?
The G-Class was sold predominantly as a left-hand-drive vehicle in most markets, so many used differentials in the UK will have come from LHD European donors, and for a mechanical part like a differential this generally makes no difference to fitment. What matters is that the engine code, gearbox type, and build year align with your vehicle. Confirm with the breaker that the unit matches your registration details before purchasing.
