Fitment on a used gearbox mount 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:
Yes, the V-Class does have a gearbox mount — it is used to secure the transmission to the vehicle's subframe or body, dampening vibration and keeping the gearbox correctly positioned. All variants, whether petrol or diesel and whether fitted with a manual or automatic gearbox, use some form of transmission mounting. The exact mount design varies by engine and gearbox combination, so the specific part you need depends on your drivetrain rather than your trim or body length.
The current W447 V-Class generation ran from 2014 onwards, with a facelift in 2019, so a 2016 car and a 2019 car sit either side of that facelift boundary. The fundamental engine and gearbox architecture is closely related across the W447 range, but ancillary and mounting components can change mid-production, particularly around a facelift. Name your engine code to the breaker and ask them to cross-reference it against your registration before buying — never assume a pre-facelift mount will drop straight in.
The V 220 d and V 300 d both use diesel engines from Mercedes-Benz's OM651 or later OM654 family, but they are tuned to different outputs and may be paired with slightly different gearbox specifications, which can affect the mounting. The key detail is your engine code, which you'll find on your V5 or via a VIN check, not simply the badge on the back of the vehicle. Give the breaker your engine code and registration and let them confirm the correct mount for your specific combination.
No, trim level does not affect gearbox mount fitment on the V-Class — Sport, SE, and AMG Line are cosmetic and equipment packages, not mechanical variants. The mount is determined entirely by your engine code and gearbox type, so a used mount from an SE is mechanically interchangeable with one from an AMG Line if the drivetrain matches. You may find cosmetic differences in how the engine bay looks between trims, but the transmission mounting itself is unaffected.
The W447 V-Class was offered in standard, long, and extra-long body lengths, but these differences relate to the rear section of the vehicle and do not change the gearbox or its mounting arrangement at the front of the drivetrain. The gearbox mount fitment is driven by your engine code and gearbox type, not by which wheelbase variant you have. Confirm with the breaker using your registration and engine code to be certain, but wheelbase alone should not be a deciding factor.
The V-Class W447 (2014 onwards) is a distinct generation from the earlier Viano W639 and shares its platform with the contemporary Vito W447, not with the older models. While the Vito W447 and V-Class W447 are mechanically very closely related and some parts do cross over, the Viano W639 used a different engine and gearbox arrangement and its mounts are very unlikely to be compatible. If you are comparing a Vito W447 part, give the breaker both registrations and engine codes and let them confirm compatibility before purchasing.
