FAQs
Can Mechatronic Units Be Repaired?
Yes, you can repair most mechatronic units. At ECU Fix, we test and restore faulty gearbox control units. Instead of replacing the entire part, we identify and fix the fault—often at a fraction of the cost. This approach saves you both time and money.
Can I Drive with a Faulty Mechatronic Unit?
Technically, you can drive with a faulty mechatronic unit, but we don’t recommend it. Faults in the system often cause gear slipping, delayed shifting, or even a total loss of drive. Driving in this condition can further damage your transmission. To avoid expensive repairs, get it checked immediately.
What Are the Symptoms of a Bad Mechatronic Unit?
When a mechatronic unit starts failing, it usually shows clear warning signs. For example, you might notice:
- Jerky or delayed gear shifts
- The gearbox stuck in one gear
- Activation of limp mode
- No drive or reverse
- A gearbox or transmission warning light
If you see any of these symptoms, bring your vehicle in for testing right away.
How Much Does a New Mechatronic Unit Cost?
A new mechatronic unit typically costs between £800 and £1,500, depending on your vehicle. However, our repair services start from just £500. Choosing repair over replacement helps you save money and avoid long delays.
