Typical problems of a robotic gearbox. Replacing the clutch Toyota Corolla - Robot

27.09.2019

Replacing clutch on Toyota corolla with a robot Shift. Everyone has a lot of heard that the robot on Toyota is very capricious and it is worthwhile to bypass it.

If you hit this site, apparently you are the owner of this car and you need qualified help. I will try to paint everything clearly.

First of all, the clutch fails in MMT. The average mileage of the clutch in our practice is 70 - 90 thousand mileage. It all depends on the intensity of driving and conditions in which the car is used. With urban ride, mileage is less, as the clutch works constantly. But when used in intercity, it is greater.

There are several tips in order to extend the life of the grip. The first is switch MMT to neutral When stopping on long traffic lights and traffic jams. This will remove the load from the clutch actuator and the clutch itself. The second one is not aggressively ride. All load when switching transmissions is clutch. And the third - from time to time it is worth riding on manual gear control mode. The control unit over time remembers your ride style and will try to repeat it in automatic mode.

Change the oil in MMT every 60 thousand run. The manufacturer does not provide for the replacement of oil in MMT. He calculates it for the entire service life - 100 thousand kilometers. In practice, problems arise with MMT.

Mechanical malfunctions PPC Multimode.

Mechanical malfunction is a mechanical wear of clutch details. Mainly wear and clutch overheating, In which the clutch loses its functional abilities. The main sign of the failure of the clutch is a slip. This leads to a loss of torque at high speeds or sharp start. With mechanical malfunctions the system is included in emergency mode And resets the transfer to neutral. Highlights the error code P0810. To troubleshoot a malfunction, you need to replace the clutch kit, which includes a basket, clutch disc and released Bearing.

Crunch in MMT when switching from the second to third gear. This is connected with the wear of the synchronizer of the transmission of the transmission. The reasons from the part are not in the timely replacement of oil, in non-adaptation of the clutch or its violation. In the running version, it leads to the failure of the package of gear inclusion of a third transmission and gear selection mechanism.

Grumble from MMT when moving the car. Because of the non-timely replacement of oil or his leakage, the bearings of the primary and secondary shaft fail. Eliminated replacement rear bearings Primary and secondary shafts.



Malfunctions Electrics PPC Multimode.

Fault B. electrical system This checkpoint is expressed in several versions. The first is a fault in setting up or initializing the clutch. Characteristic signs - twitching at the start. The second is a reset to neutral when the clutch overheating. The red icon in the form of a gear indicating a malfunction in the transmission lights up on the scoreboard. After some time waiting, the system starts working again. When conducting diagnostics, you can find out the nature of the malfunction on the error code. Consider a pair of the most common. The first is P0810 - clutch management error. This error occurs both in the mechanical clutch malfunction, and when electronic malfunction. This is Error P0900 is a break in the actuator pin drive motor circuit. This error directly indicates the chain rupture in the wiring or failure of the clutch actuator motor.

The drive motor changes separately. The cost of the motor - 6000 rubles.

Consider in practice the replacement of clutch on the robot.

To replace the clutch, we need a clutch kit - this is a disc with the clutch basket and the clutch bearing. It is desirable everything in the original.



Disconnect the air flow sensor connector, air duct clamps and housing cover latch air filter. Then we unscrew the bottom of the air filter housing.



We unscrew the cable cushion bolt, but do not take it out. Disconnect all connectors from the checkpoint. Then unscrew the upper fastening bolts.


We unscrew the hub nuts and fastening the ball support to the lever to remove the drive shafts. We preliminarily drain the oil from the checkpoint.

We unscrew the front axle cushion and pull out the drive shafts from the box for the convenience of dismantling the gearbox.



We establish the stop stands on the checkpoint and the engine so that it does not resist and slightly lift the gearbox to remove the top bolt of the CAT fastening, which we died in advance from above. As can be seen in the photo, from the left oil seal of the drive "zaglivily" the oil, because of which this cavity was painted in black. When installing, we will replace it with a new one to eliminate oil leakage. After you unscrew the cppon fastening bolts in a circle and pull the batter from the motor, it sits tightly on guide bushings. And here is the gearbox on the floor.



We remove the old grip from the flywheel and check the flywheel itself for wear. Wear should not exceed 03 - 05 mm and its surface must be smooth and smooth. As a rule, the flywheel fails very rarely.


We establish a new clutch on the flywheel and center the clutch disc. We change the release bearing to the new one. And install the PPC. The assembly procedure is exactly in the reverse order.

After assembly, an initialization (adaptation) of the clutch is carried out.

Replacing the clutch on Toyota Corolla with robotic shifting. Everyone has a lot of heard that the robot on Toyota is very capricious and it is worthwhile to bypass him, so I want to say that everything is wrong. Robots on Toyota Corolla and Auris are pretty strong. Regarding their fellow, Honda, Mitsubishi, Opel and Peugeot. The first models with robotic boxes walked with small defects, but Toyota corrected the position upgrading no refinement in serial production. And the review of the models of old issues, with a replacement for new model It was performed completely free.

Now consider what advantages in robotic. Everything was thinking in order to unload the driver from the obligation to switch the transfer. Especially it is very boring in traffic jams and maintain the inherent inhabitants and fuel consumption of the mechanics, and they succeeded. The only minus in it is smooth delays in gear shifts. The difference in consumption is about 2 liters per hundred kilometers of run.
The frequency of clutch replacement on the robot depends on the intensity of the ride. It is about 70 to 120 thousand km. Mileage

To replace the clutch we will need Clutch set, this disc with a clutch basket and clutch outlet bearing. It is very desirable everything in the original.

We unscrew the cushion cushion bolt but do not take it out. Disconnect all connectors from the checkpoint. By that, unscrew the upper fastening bolts.


We unscrew the hub nuts and fastening the ball support to the lever to remove the drive shafts. We pre-drain from the checkpoint.


We unscrew the front axle cushion and pull out the drive shafts from the box for the convenience of dismantling the gearbox.


We set the stop stands on the gearbox and the engine so that it does not allow and slightly lift the gearbox to remove the upper bolt of the gearbox that we have previously unscrewed. As can be seen in the photo from the left peel of the drive, the oil suggested from why this cavity is black. When installing it, we will replace it with a new way to eliminate oil leakage. Following, unscrew the cppon fastening bolts in a circle and pull out the mounting box from the motor. It is tightly sits on the guide bushings. And here is the gearbox on the floor.


We remove the old grip from the flywheel and check the flywheel on wear itself should not exceed 03 - 05 mm. And its surface must be smooth and smooth. As a rule, the flywheel fails very rarely.

Currently, very many automakers in pursuit of increasing the cost of production and fuel efficiency are equipped with robotic automatic transmissions. On the one hand, all is well: simplifying the design, all the advantages mechanical box Transmissions, with the exception of its minuses, less fuel consumption and dynamics are significantly higher compared to classical hydrotransformer automatic box. But the stick has two ends, and for all the advantages, it is probably the same amount of flaws, in the form of a limit on digestible power, not desirable towing car trailers, high-cost repairs of the electronic part of the gearbox and its smaller vitality, compared to automatic transmission. In fact, all possible problems It does not end with robots, now let's try to disassemble all possible troubles with which the owner of a car with such a type of transmission may encounter.

Box "Robot". About the RCP device read

1. In view of a number of features on the operation, a robotic box can fail simply because of the wrong operation. "Robots" do not like rapid accelerations greatly, in view of which the clutch discs, basket, frost bearing and its guide can ahead of time.

Symptoms of this malfunction are simple: the clutch begins to simply "bounce". Engine speeds start growing, and the car remains in place, or the loss of torque in the gearbox is traced, or the car movement by jerks.

2. Robotic boxes with two clutches that do not matter, in a dry or wet curtain, can very often require clutch discs. The procedure is programmatically, and with a small workout on disks can extend for some time the efficiency of the aggregate. In cases where calibration no longer helps, it will save only the analysis of the box, defecting components, and replacing worn to new ones. To a lesser extent, it is subject to robotic boxes with one clutch, and if the calibration procedure may be required on a two-disc robot every 30,000 km, the one-piece robot can depart and 70,000 km and not start disturbing.

3. Two-disc robots do not like to stand in traffic jams when they constantly have to click the transfer up and down. From this can overheat the transmission fluid and the box will switch to the emergency mode to the return of ATF fluid to its operating temperature. Serially no robotic from civil boxes is equipped with a heat exchanger, and its installation can correct the situation. Also owners of "robots" do not recommend standing for a long time On the brake in the mode "D", and throw off the box in the neutral position on the traffic lights, and with a tightness in traffic jams to use a sport mode that does not allow you to switch from the first transmission to the second to 2000 rpm, and cheers up to cut-off on the first, which eliminates Permanent gear shift.

4. Now few automakers write how to properly serve their cars. Based on considerations that they give a guarantee on their products 100,000 km, and on this they wash their hands in very rare cases prescribe how and what to change after warranty period operation or to achieve a given mileage. It is the opinion that modern transmissions "maintenance-free" and oil in them are polished for the entire service life. But the whole salt of this question is that if the box does not serve in time, it will noticeably reduce its resource. In a robotic gearbox, it is also necessary to change the oil, and it is desirable to do it every 60,000 km so that wear products do not climb olokanals and did not kill the electro-hydraulic unit, which is located in the box housing, and in addition to degraded oil, it may also be damaged by temperature, In view of which the sensors of the box control system suffer.

5. Not rare cases when electromechanical clutch drives suffer from robotic gears, or they are also called actuators.

From sharp starts, premature wear of brushes, levers and gear wheels take place. If it is in gears, they can be diagnosed by indirect symptoms such as hum and vibration when gear shifts. Robots are equipped with their control blocks and computer diagnostics Considering the error codes can be revealed, overheating transmission fluid Or a break into electrocups, but you can also get information about mechanical faults, but in such cases the probability of the unit parsing will be practically one hundred percent.

Usually, robotic boxes put it only for small power cars, since they have not yet learned to digest high power. Of course there are a number of robots that equip sports carsBut as long as it is more exception than the rules. Heavy SUVs and car premium segments are still equipped with classic machines, as the robot cannot even give the comfort and reliability that hydrotransformed automatic transformations, and the restriction on digestible power does not allow robots to enter this segment.

Quite soon, even the most conservative automakers will move on robotic gearboxes that will satisfy consumers at the positions of fuel economy and dynamics, and the manufacturer for simplicity and reduce the cost of construction. And the fact that it will be with these units after the expiration of the warranty period is already a headache of the second or even third car owners, and these people will remain with their problems with the car alone. Often, autohydigants are expensive to their reputation and recognizing their mistakes agree on post-warranty repair, but these are very exceptional cases, and most often the owner of the car equipped with a robotic gearbox with big mileage Forced to repair a car at your own expense, and this is very uncommittent repairs.

Toyota Corolla - A very popular car, which is considered not only high-quality, but also reliable. Nevertheless, how reliable the car was not, some parts sometimes fail, or need any configuration. One of these parts is clutch. If you changed it, or changed the associated components, the clutch must be adjusted. The benefit that this is very simple and the operation should not cause any difficulties even from those people who do not understand cars.

Clutch adjustment

The most interesting thing is that the whole process of adjustment is carried out without any special diagnostic equipment. Naturally, the first thing is necessary to adjust the clutch position. Make it easily and at the very beginning you will need to prepare a car to the subsequent operation. To do this, you will need to turn on the transmission to position n when the engine is headed, then drown out the engine and put on the handbrake. The next thing you need to move the contacts in the DLC3 connector for diagnostics. You can see detailed location of all connectors in the instructions for the car.

If you are not ready to view it, then simply remember the following location: move the 4th connector to the left in the top row and the 5th connector on the left in the lower row. The effect will be achieved only after a 10-second press. Without pressing the brake pedal, turn on the ignition, but do not start the motor, as it may interfere proper adjustment. Next, within 3 seconds, quickly squeeze the brake 7 times, after which the buzzer will publish several audible short signal. When the signal is over, click on the brake pedal and, without releasing, do the following gear shifts: N E M + M + M + M + M E N. When switching data, be careful. When the plus is turned on, you do not need to return to the neutral transmission mode or any other. In the neutral position, the box can be switched only after the last step. Now you can let go of the brake pedal.

After a few seconds it will be necessary to hold the brake pedal again. In this case, the buzzer will begin to publish short-range sound signals with a small interval. At this stage, be careful. In the event that the buzzer does not give signals, or between the signals, the break reaches 1 second, all actions starting from the very beginning will need to be done again. At the same time, you should not forget about the need to turn off the ignition and 15-second expectations.

If everything is in order, then press the brake for 2 seconds at least 3 times. As in the first case, the buzzer should publish two non-lifework sounds with an interval of 0.25 seconds.

Next, you should do a familiar procedure for squeezing gas pedals. In this case, the gear switch will need to be minus and release the brake. After that, completely turn off the ignition and after the break in 10-15 seconds, disconnect the contacts from previously folded contacts.

Clutch initialization

Adjusting the clutch using the MMT sensor, it is necessary to initialize it. This procedure will also not require any additional equipment from you.

As in the past case, you will need to prepare a car. This process is to switch the transfer to the neutral position and turn off the vehicle ignition. Next, you need to close the same contacts as in the past case and wait at least 10 seconds, then turn on the ignition, but not to start. As before, within 3 seconds you need to quickly press the brake pedal for 7 times. The buzzer will publish 2 short sound signals with an interval of 0.25 seconds.

Immediately after that, clamp the gas pedal and, without releasing, switch the transmissions in the following sequence: N e M + - + - M E N. At the end of the switching procedure, release the brake pedal and hush it back. In this case, the buzzer will produce two signals every half a second. If you did not wait no signals or they sound with a too large interval, turn off the ignition, wait 10 seconds and repeat everything first. If everything went well, then release the brake pedal and click on it 3 times for 2 seconds. As a result, the buzzer will publish two short beeps. After that, turn off the ignition and wait 10 seconds. The device initialization can be considered completed. Contacts from the diagnostic connector can be removed and moved to direct clutch adjustment.

Clutch setting

With this operation, you will no longer need to jumper contacts, so it will seem to you somewhat easier. The process of preparing the car, as in the previous steps, is to switch the gearbox to the neutral position and the ignition shutdown.

As for the immediate configuration procedure, to start turn on the ignition and wait 40-50 seconds. After that, turn off the ignition and wait another 20-25 seconds. Now it's not just turning on the ignition, but start the engine at a neutral gearbox position. Be careful, because when the engine is turned on on the information panel, the N indicator will be displayed. Do not do anything at the same time, and wait until the indicator stops flashing. If the indicator began to burn constantly, the setting can be considered complete.

Initialization of the Box-robot Toyota Corolla do it yourself - a procedure available for car enthusiasts. Not necessarily go to a specialized car service to solve this problem. It is enough to explore the instructions in detail, watch the video on this topic, to get acquainted with the TechStream program, and the setting will become accessible to any owner of Toyota Corolla 2008, 2006, 2007.

How is initialization?

After replacing any details work robotic box Transmission can be broken. In order for MMT to work out again flawlessly, it will be necessary to initialize. The instruction should be observed clearly, otherwise the procedure will have to be repeated.

First of all, it is necessary to figure out what is a robot box, then the initialization of MMT will become simpler for understanding and performing the process. The robot is constructively different from ordinary automatic transmission. It works more clearly, does not allow jerks, switches without delays, the driver does not need to apply any mechanical effort to switch the transfer.

MMT is equipped with an ECU control unit, there is a position sensor, as well as machine control sensors. The usual manual transmission has a robotic drive that independently chooses the transfer. Coupling has a car: you can install automatic, manual or semi-automatic mode of operation of the robot.

This system is convenient for this system:

  • fuel consumption will be like a manual transmission;
  • has high reliability;
  • switched yourself like a machine.\u003e

What problems arise?

The first Toyota Corolla with a robotic box appeared in 2006. The transmission was imperfect and had a number of problems. The control unit often gave failures, initialization was required to make every 10 thousand km. If this is not done, the clutch disc was beginning to overheat, because of which it was necessary to change it every 50 thousand km. In traffic jams, the car moved jerks, the ECU also gave failures.

Initialization is a reset of all the settings of the ECU. Corolla 2007 or another year of release may require initialize if any part of the mechanism was replaced (for example, after replacing the clutch, sensors, electric drive), if the computer stops working normally. Calibration is needed if the system gives unknown errors or works with failures.

Is initialization always useful?

There are cases when the initialization of the ECU is not needed.

It is not necessary to carry out a procedure too often: regular initialization of the robot will lead to increased wear of the system.

When the drive is set incorrectly, the reset of the settings is not required if the transmission switch occurs with the lag or uneven at low speed. The clutch actuator settings will not help if you need to touch more smoothly or quickly.

All actions related to the initialization of the checkpoint or block should be carried out after inspection by professionals and their direct recommendations or explicit appearance of the reasons. Before initializing a robotic transmission of Toyota Corolla 150 with your own hands, you need to consult with a specialist who is well acquainted with the work and problems of the RCPP on this car model.

How is the procedure?

It is advisable to entrust to teach a robot to specialists, but it is possible to do it yourself. To do this, you will need to install the car on hand brake, close contacts in the DLC3 unit using a needle, clip or other thin and long object. You will need to connect CG and TC numbers 13 and 4, then you need to turn on the ignition, do not have a motor motor, and click on the brake 7-10 times. You will hear a duplicate audio alert: this means that the diagnosis has begun. After that, the brake pedal should remain pressed. You will need to set up the computer as follows: N - E - V - choose "minus" - M - again "minus" - M - N.

After the electronic unit It will be configured, you can start adapting the clutch operation. The following combination will be required: n - E - M - "+" - M - "-" - M - "+" - M - "-" - E - N. Configuring MMT, it is necessary to observe the sequence: N - E - M - " - "- M -" - "- M -" + "- M -" + "- E - N.

Release and press the brake again, it will allow you to configure the selected item. If the adaptation of the robot passed correctly, the system will invite you with sound signals: first you will hear them 2, then 3, and then 4. After that, it is permissible to disconnect the ignition and disconnect TC and CG.

If, with the debugging procedure, the system notifies you with long signals or it happens after its end, then you did something wrong.

Solving the problem The following: You need to pull the key from the ignition lock and take a pause that is defined at least 20 seconds. After that, the system will reboot, and it will be possible to try to configure the student robot again.

How to work with the ECU?

If the control unit is improperly functioning, it is advisable not to try to correct errors yourself. A specialist intervention is required, with improper configuration, the system is able to start turning off or give other failures.

ECU setup should occur only after debugging the operation of the RCPP and all its control nodes has been completed.

Initialization of the box

Before running the system, you need to prepare it. Install the box lever in the neutral position. Wait before the desired settings occur, and turn on the ignition, turn off it after 20-25 seconds. After that, you can start the car motor. The brake pedal should be pressed. If all settings are correct, the "N" light will flicker. After 15 seconds of blinking, it will burn constantly: this means the completion of debugging.

Conclusion

We briefly talked about why to initialize a robotic box. Not every motorist is a specialist in technical issues, not everyone can understand why this node works with interruptions. Therefore, we recommend the production of this procedure to entrust special services to employees with all the necessary equipment and experience. Professional assistance will not allow "burning" important elements mechanism.
