- Enhancements of the Detroit DT12 Transmission are highlighted, including optimized gearing and higher overall ratios for improved down speeding and an improved oil system design for increased efficiency.
Only guy who I seen repair these take them apart and repair them in this guy in Irwindale California small shop but the guy knows his shit he must of saved me around a lil over 10 thousand guy took it apart replaced some gears and what do you know 7 months later no problem
Wonder where he gets his parts
Can you provide the name of the shop?
If you've ever seen a Mercedes Benz transmission then you would that this transmission is just that. A big steaming pile of Mercedes shit. Get an Eaton! American made stuff is designed so much simpler.
I drove both, dt12 much better
Eaton Fuller does make great manual transmissions but their automatics leave a lot to be desired. I've driven the ultrashift 10 & 13 speeds which were a horrible experience. The newer 12 speed is an improvement but still doesn't compare to the DT12.
My last truck was a 2017 Cascadia with the DT12 which I drove for over 3 years and 600K miles, heavy loads through the mountains and not single transmission problem.
How Much Is This New Transmission
Damliar own Detroit Mercedes rules
The DD13 engine is a reliability nightmare with the miles demanded of it in the US.
When you demand reliability, demand Eaton-Fuller.
Yes I agree
Yes sir 😊😁
Maybe for manual, but this DT12 is a great transmission.
@@scottcpan68 there are no transmissions other than the Eaton-Fuller 18-speed transmission that have perfect gear ratios.
Automática por favor una orientación
Ausgezeichnet 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
As we know commercial trucks are going fully automated with transmissions. It will definitely get more people into the business. It appears these transmissions are non serviceable so if one goes down it’s pulled and replaced with another, the old transmissions are then scrapped and metal recycled which makes sense.
Electric and hydrogen powered trucks are fully automatic by design since they use super powerful electric motors. With a computer shifting the gears human damage errors are greatly reduced.
It’s just too bad they wrap it around a garbage Freightliner
To be honest, out of the automated transmissions on the market, the DT line is the most herky jerky thing I’ve ever driven. Volvo/Mack is much smoother. Don’t know about the new Paccars.
you mean the best selling truck on the market with no close seconds.
Ryan Hetry That’s because they are cheap and made of cheap materials.
@@Mtts28 easy to work on, tons of resources and job security ^^
@@Mtts28 lol not true but nice try
Que toma yeba la DT 12 DA
They so copied endurant transmission.
if you mean best in class and a head of the competition, yes its a copy.
Not really, Detroit Diesel own DT12 is a modified version of Mercedes-Benz truck own powershift3 transmissions (which make sense, they are both owned by Daimler after all)
Lmao.
Detroit released the DT12 years before paccar came up with their 12 speed.
Paccar copied Detroit.
The I-Shift M-Shift transmissions from Volvo/Mack are based on the Eaton-Fuller Super-10 transmission casings. The DT-12 was finished before Eaton-Fuller finished the Endurant transmission.
I hear you need a 4 million dollar machine to fix it
These trans make noise every time you put it in D or R. The noise reminds me of old finished front shock when going through a road bump
