Transmission Sensors

Gearbox sensors are key components of automatic and manual transmissions, monitoring the operation of the drive system and providing data to the vehicle's control unit (ECU). They enable precise gear control, improved engine efficiency and safe driving. At Global Parts, you will find a wide selection of used car parts, including gearbox sensors, ideal for BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and more .

What are the functions of gearbox sensors ?

Gearbox sensors play a key role in monitoring and optimizing driveline performance:

• Gear Shift Monitoring – Gear position sensors inform the vehicle controller of the currently selected gear ratio.
• Temperature Control – Temperature sensors monitor transmission fluid condition, preventing the gearbox from overheating.
• Ensuring safety – Sensors linked to safety systems (e.g. ESP) enable their proper operation by adapting the gearbox to driving conditions.

Why is it worth taking care of gearbox sensors ?

Worn or damaged transmission sensors can lead to problems with driveline operation and vehicle safety. Typical symptoms of failure include:

• Dashboard Errors – Lights such as “check engine” or transmission warnings may indicate problems with sensors.
• Difficulty shifting – Damaged sensors can cause delayed or erratic gear changes.
• Erratic engine operation – Sensor problems can disrupt the communication between the engine and gearbox.
• Gearbox Overheating – Faulty temperature sensors can lead to an uncontrolled increase in transmission fluid temperature. At Global Parts, we offer original used gearbox sensors that have undergone extensive quality testing, ensuring their durability and reliability.

How to choose the right gearbox sensors ?

When selecting gearbox sensors, there are several key aspects to consider:

• Matching to the vehicle model – Each gearbox has its own specific technical requirements. At Global Parts you will find gearbox sensors perfectly matched to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and others .
• Technical condition – The sensors used should be free from mechanical and electrical damage.
• Sensor Type – Select the appropriate sensor type, such as gear position, temperature or speed.

Why choose used gearbox sensors ?

Used car parts, such as gearbox sensors, is an economical solution that allows you to save money while maintaining high quality. By choosing used sensors, you gain:

• Lower costs – Used items are much cheaper than new ones, but offer just as high quality.
• Ecology – Recycling car parts supports environmental protection and reduces waste.
• Wide range – In our shop you will find gearbox sensors for the most popular car brands.

How to take care of gearbox sensors ?

In order for the gearbox sensors to function reliably for a long time, it is worth following a few rules:

• Regular inspections – Check the condition of the sensors during periodic drive system inspections.
• Taking care of your vehicle’s electrical system – Keeping electrical wires and connectors clean and in good condition can prevent sensor failure.
• Responding to errors – If you are receiving transmission warnings, you should diagnose and repair the problem as soon as possible. If you need a replacement, you will find the right used car parts at Global Parts that will restore the full functionality of your gearbox.
