O305 and MAN SL200/SL202/SL243/SG220/SG242 specs

Post by a350a380 »

Hi all,

Just interested in the technical specs of all of these engine and gearbox.

I have done some research and found conflicting information. Please correct me if I have anything wrong.

MANA 3 axle O305 (2/15/43/60/115/116) - Original OM407h engine with either Renk 3 speed or Mercedes W3D gearbox not sure?

MANA 2 axle O305 (77-88) - Original OM407h engine with mix of either Renk 3 speed or Mercedes W3D gearbox not sure?

Gobus O305 (62/81-88) - not sure

NZBus O305 (1301-1600) - Original OM407h engine with either Renk 3 speed or Mercedes W3D gearbox not sure?

NZBus SL200 (1601-1688) - D2566 and Renk? understand 1627 4 speed voith and 1630 ZF4HP500. Maybe some other variants

NZBus SG220 (2001-2020) - D2566 and not sure Renk/ZF conversion. 2009 is still about - wonder what the gearbox is in that one?

NZBus SL202 (1689-1757) D2566 and not sure renk or ZF 5HP500?

NZBus Wellington SL202 (141-170) D2566 ZF4HP500

RedBus Christchurch SL202 (612-669) - D2566 ZF 5HP500

RedBus Christchurch SL202 (670) - D2566 ZF 5HP500 not sure though?

NZBus SG242 (2021-2034) - D2866 with ZF 5HP500. Seen some reports of D2566 but checked Carjam for engine

NZBus SL243 (1101-1139) - D2866 with ZF 5HP500. Seen some reports of D2566 and renk but checked Carjam for engine and they were all ZF when I went on them in service.

RedBus Christchurch 22.240 (672-680) - D2866 with ZF 5HP500. Seen some reports of D2566 but checked Carjam for engine

Gobus 22.240 (428) - D2866 with ZF 5HP500. Seen some reports of D2566 but checked Carjam for engine. Seems this could have a mid mounted engine due to grills?

There are also the New Plymouth examples too.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
