Replacement Clutch for Semi Automatic gear box

[Cyker]

Maybe you can coach PerryW on what to say to them to get them to repair his MMT under warranty - Some parts of the agreement to cite to them perhaps?

We had Toyota's "kvalitets garanti" , quality guarantee for total period of 8 years from the date of manufacture on our Aygo, which we bought second hand from Toyota dealer . It was about three years old when we bought it and when the mmt actuator failed the first time we had the whole replaced under that warranty and later the water pump failed and that too was replaced under that warranty. We paid nothing. The warranty price was already included in the price of the car. After eight years we sold the car, knowing that another mmt or clutch related problem was around the corner.

The automatic gearbox you have, MMT, is not a “normal” auto box and that is why “several automatic gearbox specialist garages” are not touching it. What you have is a standard manual gearbox BUT instead of you pushing the foot operated clutch down and changing gear by hand the gearchange is automated with arms computer controlled doing the changing instead of you.            
Do a search in the Aygo and Yaris sections of this forum and you will read of more then a few members who have had problems with their MMT auto boxes. It is common that users have endured problems when actually out on the road, often putting them in potentially dangerous situations.             
If you do not want a Toyota dealer to do the job you would be better to find an independent garage with possibly a trained Toyota mechanic, personally it is not a job that you can give to any garage - as you have already found out.

Note - Toyota dealers are independent of Toyota, that is why Frostyballs refers to “the dealer” - not Toyota (the manufacturer).
