Abstract
A transmission for a motor vehicle has an input shaft, an output shaft, a ratio-changing device by which different transmission ratios are made available, a housing, a hub connected to a torsional damper, and a separating clutch including a first clutch half and a second clutch half. The hub is connected to the first clutch half. The input shaft is rotationally fixed to the second clutch half and extends axially into the ratio-changing device. A first axial end of the input shaft is directly or indirectly supported on the housing in a radial direction via a first bearing. A second axial end of the input shaft is supported directly on the hub in the radial direction via a second bearing. Additionally, the hub is directly supported on a bearing shield in the radial direction via a third bearing, the bearing shield being rotationally fixed to the housing.
