Abstract

A vehicle transmission having a main drive clutch (14), a multi-ratio gearbox (12), a gear engaging mechanism (25) for engaging the operative ratio of the gearbox, a manually operable gear selector (60) allowing the operator to manually select the operative ratio of the gearbox when the transmission is acting in a manual mode, and an electronic control means (36) which controls the disengagement and engagement of the drive clutch at start-up and halting of the associated vehicle and during gear changes and which also determines which gear ratio is to be selected when the transmission is acting in an automatic mode. The manually operable gear selector (60), which may be steering column mounted, is also arranged to enable the operator to override the current automatically selected ratio, and the transmission then remains in manual mode if an override is actioned until the operator switches the transmission back to its automatic mode or a predetermined time period has elapsed.
