Question about semi auto gearbox
Ive been looking at a MK3 with a gearbox problem ,its the semi auto box but it wont go into gear ,is there a common problem with these ,or is it going to be expensive to fix / convert to manual
Re: Question about semi auto gearbox
Conversion to manual is possible, but forget about fixing the SMT box:You'd be looking at roughly £1K min assuming it's just the actuator box, twice to three times that if ECU or other issues.
Re: Question about semi auto gearbox
Before you 'forget about fixing it', there are some common faults and fixes yes.
The most common is covered in the relearn procedure, don't know if it's documented on here but it certainly is over on spyderchat (where there is a vast amount of SMT knowledge) and the info has also been pasted across to mr2roc IIRC

Any chance of posting the info here to make life a bit easier for others if they have the same problem in the future?

If you can drop me a link that will be good ,ive looked over on mr2oc and couldn't find anything relevant ,but then i might not have worded the search correctly
