Motor vehicle transmission

A motor vehicle transmission with a four-lane shifting arrangement for five forward speeds and a reverse speed for vehicles with a rear engine, comprising a change-speed transmission means including housing means and an axle gear means, an input shaft operable to be driven from an engine and an output shaft operable to drive a vehicle axle by way of the axle gear means, shifting rods coordinated to the transmission speeds which are supported substantially horizontally in the housing means substantially parallel to the input shaft and output shaft, and shifting fingers for actuating said shifting rods, said shifting fingers being provided at a shifting lever means, a spatially fixed guide shaft disposed substantially perpendicularly to the shifting rods, said shifting lever means being longitudinally movable supported on said guide shaft for the preselection of the shifting lanes and being rotatably supported thereon for the engagement of the speeds, a shifting shaft disposed substantially parallel to the shifting rods inserted into the transmission housing means within the lower area thereof, means operatively connecting said shifting shaft with said shifting lever means including arms at the shifting lever means and at the shifting shaft which are pivotally connected with each other, the shifting lever means including a shifting finger for the actuation of the shifting rod of the third and fourth speed, a second shifting finger for the actuation of the shifting rods of the first and second as well as the fifth speed and a third shifting finger for the engagement of the reverse speed.
