Check auto gearbox fault, sporadic.



  Clio Mk3 1.2 TCE
Hi guys, so 4 months ago I bought a 2015 mk4 Clio GT auto. The car was perfect in every way until the last week or so where it will randomly throw up the “check auto gearbox” message. When this happens it loses the odd gears 1,3,5 but I can still drive in 2,4,6,R. I can shift through the gears with the paddles with slight challenge but it will do it. If I pull over and switch it off for a few minutes then the problem will go away.

I have read the codes at work and what I’m getting is “Clutch 1 Motor Circuit,General Electrical Failure” as well as a few battery related short circuit codes. From my own research I’ve seen people recommend changing the battery or even the TCM but that second option is a lot of money from what I’m aware of and not something that is currently affordable to me.

From what I’ve seen almost everyone with the same issue loses 2,4,6,R whereas I have the opposite issue and seem to lose 1,3,5.

Any help is much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Definitely change the battery first. If that doesn’t fix it I’m afraid you’re in for a new TCM.
