  • This time I'm a a 2644 M/Benz with a 12 speed auto/semi auto gearbox.
    This gearbox allows the driver to choose from 3 different configurations;
    Full auto, Truck selects what gear when.
    sequencial semi/auto, Drver selects gear - can only go one gear at a time (up or down).
    semi auto, Driver choose WHEN to change gear truck chooses WHAT gear to go to

    Back in May [of 2010 for future readers] I rode a Mercedes-Benx intercity bus with my mom as part of a Princess Cruise tour [they do sponsor bus trips] in Mazatlan, Mexico, and it was a "roadranger" type manual, problay 12 gears, no semi- or full-auto. {Mexico has a LONG-standing manual tradition. Ole!].

    Game?
    It's work! The truck is real

  • @scaniawahl
    @scaniawahl 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @shaned8845 yes it can grind, the gearbox itself is a manual gearbox. the auto is computers who controls the clutch and engine in gearshift, and sometimes it happens. it happened once while i was driving the volvo with i-shift transmission :)

    My Volvo 480 I-Shift rules over my old Merc2546 pre-select. Woody Woodpecker did my head in tryin to pull quickly out of roundabouts.

  • @scaniawahl
    @scaniawahl 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @TheFuturetrucker if you dont put it in neutral self it does after 1 minute, when you stop it goes to the best gear to frive again. you can put it in neutral with one buttton on the stick, very esay :) you must manually change to reverse or forward again :)

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes, rev matches every shift

  • @scaniawahl
    @scaniawahl 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @samsteryfc there is no clutcpedal there. the clutch and throttle performs automatic

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like the Benz way of thinking, you get three different levels of control, The Volvo has only two.
    The Volvo is a much quicker shift and for me personnally I would prefer it,over the slower Benz box.

  • @scaniawahl
    @scaniawahl 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @johndeere4240 there is no clutch pedal at all, the clutch working for it self. the first fase on the throttle adjust the clutch to a start and after you drive like normal, nice stuff :)

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Mcmerc01 its size.
    big bits of metal don't like changing direction at speed.
    also its redline is 2500, but its governed to 2100, they will cope above 2100 but NOT recommended .

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  15 ปีที่แล้ว

    The green light is a guide for the driver,It is where the tacho needle SHOULD be for optimum fuel economy, taking into consideration of throttle position & roadspeed.
    It only comes on if the truck thinks the driver should be in another gear

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  15 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've only driven one iveco, and It wasn't a bad truck, It was showing fault codes but performed well.
    One thing is NEVER leave it parked in gear, It needs air pressure to shift, no air no shift, cannot start in gear no start either unless you pump up air tanks from some other source

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @martyPE1987 2100nm @1080 rpm, but its peak power is at 1800rpm, torque is what gets it up the hills, power is what makes it accelerate.
    When accelerating, you work towards peak power, when in the hills you work towards peak torque.
    What I've show here is not my normal driving habits, just what can be done

  • @MichaelLutz
    @MichaelLutz 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Mcmerc01 Well engines used in trucks and tractors are direct injection diesels. They are more fuel efficient but they don't like high revs. That's why they haven't been used in cars until Audi found a way with high pressure injection and decent damping (they are also louder) to make them suitable for cars.Truck/tractor engines wouldn't last as long either. A car engine is pretty much just "playing" mostly while a truck engine has to work.

    The actross I drive has a clutch and the knob on the arm rest very strong little truck single drive b double rated.

  • @deafhonda25
    @deafhonda25 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Mcmerc01 Truck's motor tend to have more than 11 liters! thats huge, 600cc sportbike's redline is around 16k, 1.8 liter honda can rev 8k to 10k, most corvette have 5.7 liters, able to rev to 7k stock. redline goes more less with more engine capacity.
    Diesel have awesome loads of torque in low rpm so it is suitable for heavy towing, no reason to rev more than 2,500 rpm.

  • @scaniawahl
    @scaniawahl 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @TheFuturetrucker the most drivers would put it to neutral befor 1 and half minutes stand still anyway :)

  • @joeymonne_hardtechno
    @joeymonne_hardtechno 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do no I intend remains will be stand still as you just for instance for a bridge he then by itself back after a few minutes to neutrally?

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  16 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yep. . . . thats right

  • @joeymonne_hardtechno
    @joeymonne_hardtechno 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    no i mean if you standing stil and let your gear in revers or drive is it then going back in neutral?

  • @abccba654
    @abccba654 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @shaned8845 i agree, but try to concentrate on torque if you want to have a good gas milage on your truck and if you want your engine last longer. i have been throug many driving practices with factory drivers from MB ,Renault or Scania. Unless it is an emergency situation or slowing down using an engine i would not go pass green zone.

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    yes, It will go back to nuetral if left in gear without moving

  • @scaniawahl

    @martyPE1987 how many tons did you have loaded for that trpip of 1304km?

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  15 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm not sure what you are asking.
    If you mean shifting up/down, that stubbie knob at the end of the left arm rest is the gearlever, you see that the 5 min mark, at the 7 min mark I have selected full Auto(truck does all the gearshifting it's self)

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  15 ปีที่แล้ว

    This gearbox has 3 levels of automation.
    FULL auto, does EVERYTHING itself.
    SEMI auto, I press the gearlever when I want to change, The truck "decides" what gear to go to.
    MANUAL, I select what gear when, can press twice for two gears at a time.
    The changes happen within a second or 2 after I move the gearlever, I don't take the foot off the throttle( upsifts) at all, it does that for you

    Hello There
    I was about 10 years Mercedes-Benz engine-gearbox-differential doing mechanic
    Mercedes-Benz trucks of old / new in all models I have worked for
    Now the 12-speed for the first time you have used your Actros came to me and said there was a failure;
    Fully automatic / semi automatic driving if the gear does not exceed, for example: 5th when the gear 7th wants to get in gear, but now can not re-5th coming down to gear the whole gear to apply this failure falls traction motor when it is active and is now struggling to move the car
    What do you think could be causing this failure?

    @martyPE1987 41.5 - 42.5tons gross.
    This truck only goes from a manufacturing plant to a warehouse loaded one way.
    It takes 55- 60 mins to load, deliver, unload, return, doesn't get past 70kph, most of the time lucky to get past 50 kph if the traffic is moving.
    Fuel economy is irrelevant in this particular job .
    I haven't driven this truck or any other Benz since 2007

  • @shaned8845
    @shaned8845  16 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's in full auto at the 7.00 min mark, It changes very smooth even when it skipping gears.
    I would like to add that when i said this truck is real,It is real, not a game or make beleive, It is the one of the most car like trucks I have driven.
    When someone states thats a REAL TRUCK, In my mind that would be something that has a proper gearstick,a clutch pedal and at least some sort of sound affects.
    This "truck" has none of that
