Hi all,

My car keeps having the same issue even after I sent it to workshop for quite a few times. What happens is out of sudden I can hear 'clak clak' sound from the gear stick and soon the gear shift indicator turns '-' (a dash sign), after that CVT light turns on and then I cannot accelerate my car anymore. I would need to reignite the engine again after that. This leaves me in a very dangerous situation since I have no idea when it will happen, and it leaves me stopping at the middle of the road praying that I will not get hit from behind.

This is what they said when I sent my car to workshop:
First occurrence, they said the CVT software was outdated, so they reinstalled with the updated version
Second occurrence, sent to another workshop, technicians said previous workshop didn't do the 'adaptation' process after installing new software, so they did it
Third occurrence (happenned on the same day after I got my car back), I looked online and found someone having experienced this before, what he did was to change the positioning switch. I went to the same workshop the next day asking them to change the positioning switch, they did so.
Forth occurrence, it happenned again just now.

What should I do next? Does this happen to anyone of you? Is this due to gearbox?

Yes, you should. In fact, do make some scary stories like 'This shit happened again when I am in the middle of a roundabout, with a Volvo FM12 heading towards me and I nearly dieded all because of this thing happened again.'

I already did so last time but they kept saying they checked this checked that everything no problem doh.gif

Other than TCU any other reason that will cause that?

Thanks for your reply

Yes.

It's either the TCU itself or the wiring related to the TCU that is giving you the issues.

Okay will ask them to do so, thank you so much!

Just out of curiousity: How old is your car? how old is your battery? and have you done any mods to your car?

Almost one year. No mod. Just so frustrating that they can't diagnose the root cause after so many times, if they still insist there is nothing wrong to the car I don't know what else I can do...
