I have a 2005 Yaris petrol with the MMT box.
It has started to show a slight slipping between gears, especially 3rd and 4th. In other words, when it changes the engine over revs a little before it changes. This is recent. Is this a known problem fixable by an adjustment I can make by chance?

Thanks for any pointers and help

How many kilometers on your car?

I’ve bought cars with bad clutches just a little bad. In my experience if you are careful you can keep driving with a slightly bad clutch for a long time

Also, have you owned this car since new or did you buy used?

If you’ve had it since new and the clutch is damaged, you did it. So you got some bad habits you need to change. I myself am 65 and while I have owned maybe a dozen cars with clutches I have never damaged a clutch. Some of my cars had 250,000 miles on the same clutch

65,000 km isn’t a lot. I hope your clutches not bad or at least no seriously damaged. You might be able to change your habits. Basically, you don’t want toIncrease the refs while. shifting

This makes for a slow unexciting driving, but long coach life
