Hi, is the actuator leaking? If it is not and looks fine, it could just be the clutch.Hi, I'm new to the site and am looking for some advice. My wife has a 500C with dualogic gearbox. We have had the car from new and it has done 50k miles - the car now has a gearbox problem, It showed gearbox temp warning light then lost all drive. Regained drive after restarting car but only going forward in about 3rd gear, starting and staying in that gear but the strangest thing was with the gearlever in the reverse poition. There was a slight burn smell but the car got me about 2 miles to our local Fiat dealer with a bleeper sounding most of the time and without it changing gear. Dealership suggests replacement accuator and clutch - any ideas and advice would be much appriecated. Thank you.
This is what happened to me the last time. If the actuator is leaking fluid then you are in trouble and as JrKitching said, you'd best replace the whole unit for around 1200 GBP.
