yea the core of AMT is still the manual gearbox

which shouldn't be a problem
True, but the robotic clutch system is many times more expensive to replace than
the actual clutch kit in the manual gearbox in the event of component failure.
This is what every Savvy AMT owner is dreading whenever the AUTO light comes on.
Proton's inability to resolve this problem is not helping to allay this fear, especially
for those out-of-warranty vehicles.
Added on October 2, 2008, 1:44 pmThere is one lady owner from Singapore who posted on savoc.net yesterday regarding the AMT failure
of her two-month old Savvy!
After ignition, she cannot put the car into drive from the 'N' position. Even with the help of some
experienced forummers, she still couldn't manage to engage into drive. I really sympathise with
her since she cannot use her car and has to wait to be towed back to the service centre after the
Raya holidays.
My Savvy AMT is also around two-month+ old and I am feeling really apprehensive about this AMT
problem. So unpredictable. It can happen without warning on both new and out-of-warranty vehicles.
