Honda Civic i-Shift Clutch Actuator + Gear Actuator Repairs
Honda Civic i-Shift Clutch + Gear Actuators
Modern Honda Civics are available with the optional Semi-Automatic gearbox which is equipped with I-Shift technology. This is basically a manual gearbox that is controlled electronically by an electronic clutch actuator, gearbox actuator, and a gearbox ECU. These gearboxes are known to suffer transmission faults. Although this is a very problematic system, it is not always the same part that fails. We’re able to test and repair all three parts – the clutch actuator, gear actuator and the gearbox ECU.
Common Clutch Actuator / Gearbox Actuator Problems
Some of the most common issues found with the Honda Civic I-Shift gearbox are listed below:
- Selecting Wrong Gears
- Won’t Rev in Reverse
- Gears Won’t Select
- Going in & out of Auto Mode
- ECU Logging Clutch Actuator Faults
- ECU Logging Gear Actuator Faults
- P0810 Clutch Position Control Error
If you find that either of the actuators are faulty and have researched the repair solutions available, you will find that a new clutch & gear actuator will cost in the region of £750 – £950 + VAT + Labour and then extra costs will be added if the unit requires coding / calibration. These are usually available directly from the dealer and will only come with a 12-month warranty, however if you manage to purchase second-hand part, these will usually be cheaper, but will only come with a limited warranty (normally 30-90 days) and will also require programming.
Sinspeed Clutch / Gearbox Actuator Repairs
Here at Sinspeed, we are able to fully test & repair the clutch and gearbox actuators for the Honda Civic I-Shift vehicles. When rebuilding the clutch & gearbox actuators only genuine OEM components are used to ensure that each rebuilt actuator is rebuilt to meet and exceed OE specifications. If it is your own unit that we are repairing, this will not require programming either and you will also be happy to know that all our repaired clutch and gearbox actuators will come with a Lifetime Warranty.
We also offer a professional fitting service if required.
If you have a Semi-Automatic (I-Shift) Honda Civic and are experiencing transmission problems that are related to either the clutch actuator or Gearbox actuator then call us today on 0203 815 9441 for a diagnosis or a free quote!

Hi Sinspeed!
I just bought a 2006 Honda civic 1.4 i-shift. I Realised that if I put the car in automatic mode it’s become a little jumpy. In manual mode every gear change is smooth. But in automatic mode the start is different. Even if it’s in first gear or in reverse. I have to push the throttle pedal more and it’s not doing anything. And then it’s just starts going quickly. Which is okay in first gear but a bit difficult for my wife in reverse, as specially when she’s trying to park. The car have 135k miles and I am not sure if the clutch is worn or is the alternator problem. There is no fault code in the car at all. Hope you can help. Thank you! RP

Hi there,
I have a Honda Civic 2007 Type S 1.8 iShift which I only just purchased as seen. I didn’t get to catch the iShift fault in it’s early stages during the test drive. The iShift fault Started off intermittent, lit the iShift transmission warning, jerking when changing down and dropping into neutral. Now the iShift Transmission warning is lit permanently and it won’t go into A, M or R. I am told Fault code 0810 clutch position control error, that the clutch actuator needs repairing and maybe the clutch replacing but this garage refuses to give me a quote only an estimate after allowing them to diagnose. Could you help please?
I have an issue with my car today and the Quote i got from a Mechanic is to high compared to how much i bought the car.Its in regards to what he claims to be clutch actuator which he says i would have to either buy a new one or on probability of the old getting fixed.How can you be of a help as i have no £2033 to spend to get a new one please.
