6Th Gear Failure (At Speed) ... Anyone Else?
Quick question; Scoured the forum, could not find anything, so I think I know the answer, Has anyone else heard, or experienced a 6th gear failure? (Auris T180, 6MT) 2 weeks age i had my 6th gear fail, as I was driving at 70mph on the fast lane of the motorway. Result, loss of drive, just about managed to get car to hard shoulder (interesting moments! ) but afterwards found out still had drive on other gears and seemed to be contained to failure on the 6th gear alone, so that no debris resulte
That's exactly what I did! :) I got the short 6th in the Avensis transmission replaced. I contacted Toyota Customer support and asked for every detail of the EA6x gearbox family. They were really helpful, I got what I asked for in maybe two days. We checked, if it was possible, then a gearbox-specialist did the work. It wasn't even expensive, around 150 Euros for the labor (incl. gearbox overhaul).The parts were a bit pricy, almost 400 Euros... But it works well now. No sensors, or anything else
