Corolla AE111 Auto Gearbox Prob

[ylkien]

Hi guys,

My toyota AE111 auto just KO!

After starting the car, engage in 'R', then it can't switch back to any other gears. The gear stick can still move, but it does register on the dashboard/car...so this means, the car can't move this moment...

Does anyone have a good idea what is going on? Is my gearbox still ok? If not, how much will it cost to repair?

Thanks!

check shiftlever gear cable first...

 

[nappx]

last time mine alsoo..like that..

 

[ylkien]

Yup. Problem found.

It is the gear lever cable, as mentioned by nappx. It cost a bomb of RM600 at toyota service centre.

I also face the same problem last time. You can D.I.Y yourself, not need spend RM600, just RM5 enought. only drill a small hole at the gear shifter gearcable join part. you repalce a rubber boost at the cable hole and then put a pin cross the hole, then problem settle. cheapest way and lasting for whole life time. hehehe.....DIY is good.....:_: see the picture for reference

so ylkien... what was the 600 bucks for... can u list the breakdown...???

 

[BlurBlur]

mine happened before too.. it's the rubber ring at the latch that is broken which cause the gear shift to fail. It connects the gearbox cable and ur gear knob. I also DIY-ed it.. didn't cost me anything.. just cost me alot of time and no car to use haha...

 

[nappx]

yea..yea..that other alternative..
