Mitsubishi Colt gearbox problem - any solution?
My Mitsubishi Colt 1.5 diesel semi automatic has a problem. All appears normal when the engine is pulling but when decelerating on the overun, the transmission becomes quite jerky perhaps through about 1000 revs until the box then changes down.

This was one of the most reliable robotised automated manuals, but at 11 years old it is way past the end of its design life and replacing the clutch and actuator will cost more than the car is worth. Sometimes, clever guys can reprogramme the actuator to take account of clutch wear and that can keep them going for longer.
