Hello all
I just had a discussion with an acquaintance and he told me that his Cayman S (987) with a 6-speed manual transmission has a transmission from Audi. can this be? I really can't believe it. Thanks for your info

Hallo elfertech,
Schau mal hier: 6 speed transmission Cayman S from Audi?
Dort wird jeder fündig! :-)
True:
The transmission is from Getrag and was also installed in some models from Audi.
For racetrack operation with limited slip differential, it is only conditionally suitable for racing, because the housing is not stiff enough for the long term.
Unfortunately, you can not just install one from an Audi, because some brackets do not fit.

Getrag is the supplier - were in between, if I'm not mistaken, also once insolvent... Suppliers just...

Almost everything.
That also with Ferrari, Lambo etc. so.
They design the vehicles (to a large extent also in external work) and then outsource everything possible according to their plans.

It has to come from somewhere. Very few have their own transmissions and Porsche only uses the modular system. After all, Porsches are just cars and only differ in price from the rest.

I don't know of a single car manufacturer that builds its own transmissions.
One exception could be Ferrari, they were the first in Formula 1 with paddles or buttons on the steering wheel.

But there are - VW, Mercedes, Ford, Toyota, just to name the ones I know from my professional environment.
Mostly the complete portfolio/transmission types are never produced by the manufacturer. At Mercedes and VW, for example, the vertical range of manufacture is quite high. Not only are they assembled, they also manufacture the required gears and shafts (soft and hard machining) themselves.
At the moment, however, many things are being mixed up because of e-mobility.
