Is a car transmission box oiled. Ive seen many gears in my life and usually they are choked with oil and lube. The car transmission spins rapidly and is used often with gears clashing against each other. Is the transmission in like a sealed box and filled with oil or something so there is little friction I mean if you think about the biting point its never the same each time and the cogs dont mesh with each other evenly each time?Thanks
All transmissions have to be oiledlubed in one way or another. you may not see the drainfill plugs but believe me they are hidden in there somewhere. depending on the make and model they can use anything from plain engine oil to automatic transmission fluid to gear lube as for manuals the meshing of the gears are done by little components called synchros they make the transition smooth so no grinds.
Manual transmissions are lubricated by splash the counter shaft and its gears throw oil keeping all item lubricated heat is transfer through the case some vehicles have an External cooler.
Manual transmissions run in a bath of oil that is splashed about by the gears. Some manuals have oil pumps that route the oil in the transmission in a more controlled method. I think that's what you're asking.
