Toyota (MMT) Clutch Actuator + Gear Actuator Repairs

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 my Toyota auris MMT also slips into N and flashes on dash board. But does the ECU also have to changed or just the actuator and clutch kit.

  • I have Toyota Ayego 9 year old with MMT transmission which has a problem when you start driving from cold, it starts to jerk and when the engine warms up it gets better. Also while driving going up and down on automatic transmission you can feel the change over of years is not smooth.

    • Hi Kam

      Thanks for the enquiry,

      This is a very common problem to experience with the MMT transmission system. It’s definitely a fault we can take a look at and try resolving for you, we have a purpose-built isolated testing rig to test both the clutch + gear actuators and the transmission ECU to determine the root cause of the failure before proceeding with the remanufacturing process.

      I have sent you an email with full information and pricing. If you have any further questions, please respond to the email and we’ll be happy to assist you.

  • Hi,

    Our ’07 Yaris MMT keeps getting stuck in neutral and Flashing N on the dashboard and is undriveable. Please could you let us know the price of a new unit?

    • Hi Steven

      Thanks for the enquiry,

      The fault you have described is actually one of the most common faults we come across on the clutch/gear actuators and in fact, it is even more common that we see it on Toyota’s MMT transmission systems.

      There are a number of reasons you could be experiencing the problems you have described. It could be a faulty clutch actuator, gear actuator or even the transmission ECU itself. For this reason, we would strongly recommend having the system tested first to confirm the root cause of the fault.

      I have sent you an email with full information and pricing. If you have any further questions, please respond to the email and we’ll be happy to assist you.

  • hi
    I have a toyota yaris 2008 1.4 D-4d. Also my car Slipping out of gears, Getting Stuck in Neutral, Gearbox Light On Dash. After restarting the car in 3-5 minutes it’s working fine until next ….slipping out. What is the solution?
    Thank you

    • Hi Chris

      Thanks for the enquiry,

      The fault would need to be investigated to be sure but it’s a very common symptom of a failing clutch or gear actuator. We can fully bench test both of the clutch + gear actuators as well as the transmission control module, which could also be causing this type of failure. We have repaired hundreds of units with similar faults and all remanufactured units are returned with a lifetime warranty.

      We have sent you an email with full information and pricing. If you have any questions, please reply to our email and we’ll be happy to assist you.

      Kind Regards

  • Hi, mum has a 53 plate Yaris which she’s owned from brand new. Fault occurs when pulling up to stop at junction or traffic. car will go into neutral and stay there. will not engage gear to get going again. switch ignition of for a few mins then all ok but fault reoccurs randomly. She had this happen before back in 2010 and after a very strong letter to Toyota MD we got it repaired FOC as goodwill. Dont think that’ll work again now LOL. Please can you help.

    • Hi David

      Thanks for the enquiry,

      I’m sorry to hear the fault has re-occurred. It is a very common problem and we can definitely help.
      We frequently remanufacture both actuators and the transmission control module and any repaired units are returned with a Lifetime warranty for complete peace of mind.

      I have sent you an email with full information and pricing. If you have any questions, please reply to the email and we’ll be happy to assist you.
