Toyota Multi-Mode Transmission (MMT) Clutch Actuator + Gear Actuator Repairs
Multi-mode transmission, or MMT for short, is a type of sequential manual gearbox. Offered by Toyota and is commonly known to be fitted to the Aygo, Auris, Yaris and Corolla Verso models. The MMT comes with a conventional friction clutch and a mechanical gear selector mechanism which is controlled electronically. Instead of the conventional automatic transmission, which uses hydraulics and a torque converter. As many Toyota owners will be aware, this particular design has had many complaints and common failures with the clutch and gear actuator units.
Common MMT Clutch Actuator + Gear Actuator Repairs
Some of the most common problems associated with the MMT Gearbox Clutch + Gear Actuators are:
- Slipping out of gear
- Getting Stuck in Neutral
- Gearbox Light On Dash
- Complete Failure
If you find that the clutch or gearbox actuator has failed. Many customers who have asked around regarding this issue will know that going to the main dealer will cost in excess of £700 + VAT and labour. Programming and the new replacement will only come with the standard 12-month warranty. If you opt for a second-hand part, it may work out slightly cheaper. But then it will also require coding/programming which requires dealer-level equipment and this will come at an additional cost with a limited 30 -90 day warranty. Keeping in mind the current issues that occur with these actuators. This could also work out to be more expensive due to the risk of it failing again.

Hi
After getting the battery replaced, my Toyota Aygo drove for few miles and all of sudden got stuck on Neutral. Got it checked by AA and the fault came back there is an open circuit on clutch actuator. Gut thinks it may be just a corroded connector or loose connection which led to this however he could not fix on the roadside. I was recovered to Reading. Call me on 075********.

Hi dear,
I have toyota corolla verso semi auto, 2005. When am driving on full speed, all serms ok. The clutch was changed earlier this year. I get a lot of stuttering and hesitation when l slow down in traffic and then the automatic transmission warning light will Cime and stay on. If l turn the engine off snd then restart the dar, the warming light will come back on after 2 minutes of driving.
I have found that leaving the car to sit for some hours, makes everything to Seem normal when driving but then the problem retruns again.
Is this something you can assist me to get rid of permanently?
