Abstract:
A transmission (G) for a motor vehicle includes a pump (P), an oil sump (S), a hydraulic control unit (HCU), a gear set (RS) for providing different transmission ratios between an input shaft (GW1) and an output shaft (GW2) of the transmission (G), and a cavity (HY) arranged on an input side, in which a torque converter (TC) and/or an electric machine (EM) are accommodated. The cavity (HY) is connected to the oil sump (S) via a gap (C) configured for a passive return of oil out of the cavity (HY) into the oil sump (S). In order to reduce the gap (C), a separating element (T) is configured for making it difficult for oil to flow out of the oil sump (S) to the cavity (HY). A drive train comprising such a transmission (G) is also provided.
