A modern semi-automatic Peugeot / Citroen will come with SensoDrive technology. Sensodrive is basically an electronically controlled manual gearbox. It will come fitted with an electronic clutch actuator, gearbox actuator and a gearbox ECU.
The Peugeot / Citroen range vehicles with SensoDrive technology often suffer transmission faults and most commonly the problems are within the electronic clutch actuator and / or gearbox actuator. Below we’ve listed some of the common failing symptoms we’ve seen these units suffer with.
Common Clutch Actuator / Gearbox Actuator Problems
- Won’t Rev in Reverse
- Gears Won’t Select
- Selecting Wrong Gears
- Going in & out of Auto Mode
- Showing ” – ” Sign Instead of Gears

A new clutch actuator alone will cost you £480 +Labour and may require coding / calibration. A new gearbox actuator alone will cost you £780 +Labour and may require coding / calibration. New replacement parts from dealers will come with a 12-month warranty. Second hand used parts will be a lot cheaper but come with limited warranty (typically 30-90 days) and may require reprogramming.

Hi, I have a citreon C2 vtr semi automatic. I have a problem where the snowflake symbol keeps flashing and car then won’t start. I have seen people post about this being a problem with the actuator. Was wondering how much your testing and repair services are ?
Hi Jason,
My daughter just bought the Peugeot 1007 from a dealer and the very next day when she went to start the car firstly it wouldn’t start then did and it wouldn’t select any gear. She tried the disconnection of the battery etc as per instructions given on some of the forums about this problem but to no avail it didn’t help. Please advise what you think and any pricing for both clutch and gearbox actuator repairs please.
Many thanks and regards
Davy Denham

Hi I have a 2004 c2 vtr with senso drive the problem I have is setting off from junctions I get a shudder like the clutch is not engaging as quick as it should also if I stick my foot down sometimes the revs get high but it pauses before changing gear but works better if I use the paddles.
Cheers could you give me a price for this I think the clutch actuator is at fault.
