Hyderabad's AMT Repair Authority
Metre Per Second — Premium Car Service and Repair is Hyderabad's dedicated AMT workshop. An AMT is a manual gearbox driven by an electro-hydraulic actuator and a Transmission Control Unit, so it fails in ways a general garage rarely understands. We read live actuator and clutch data on diagnostic tools (Maruti GDS-style scanners, Tata and Renault platforms), so you only pay for the fault your car actually has.
Automated Manual Transmissions sound simple but are unforgiving. A worn dry clutch, a drifting actuator reference position, a failing gear-position sensor and a TCU that has lost its adaptation each produce the same jerk — yet need completely different fixes. Our technicians have serviced thousands of AGS, iAMT and Easy-R units in Hyderabad traffic, which is why we cure the shift quality correctly the first time instead of throwing parts at it.
Over 15 years and 25,075+ vehicles, we have built our name on honest diagnosis, genuine clutch kits and actuator parts, and a 1-year warranty on the work. Free pickup and drop across KPHB, Kukatpally, Madhapur, Gachibowli, Hi-Tech City and Banjara Hills means your AMT reaches our bay without you losing a day at work.
What We Repair
AMT Actuator Repair & Replacement
The electro-hydraulic actuator that operates the clutch and selects gears wears out, leaks or develops motor faults. We rebuild or replace it, then teach the actuator its reference position so engagement is crisp again.
Dry-Clutch Kit Replacement
AMTs use an ordinary dry clutch that wears fast in stop-go traffic. We renew the clutch plate, pressure plate and release bearing with quality kits for Maruti AGS, Tata iAMT and Renault Easy-R units.
Clutch Calibration & Adaptation Reset
Most low-speed jerk is calibration drift, not hardware. We run a full clutch touch-point relearn and adaptation reset so the actuator finds the bite point precisely and shifts smooth out.
TCU Diagnostics & Programming
Transmission Control Unit fault codes, software bugs and lost adaptation cause gear hunting, limp mode and warning lights. We scan, reflash where available and reprogram the TCU correctly.
Gear-Position Sensor & Solenoid Service
A faulty gear-position sensor or sticking solenoid causes delayed engagement and wrong-gear selection. We test and replace these so the TCU always knows the exact gear state.
Gear Oil Service & Shift-Fork Repair
Degraded MTF (typically 75W-85 GL-4) worsens jerk and accelerates wear. We change spec-correct gear oil and, where worn, service the selector shift forks inside the manual gearbox.
Our Repair Process
- Free Pickup & Symptom Logging: We collect your car from anywhere in Hyderabad, note exactly when the jerk, delay or warning light appears, and confirm the AMT type — AGS, iAMT or Easy-R.
- Road Test & Diagnostic Scan: A technician road-tests the car, then connects a scanner to read TCU fault codes, actuator position, clutch wear values and gear-position data to pinpoint the real cause.
- Clutch Wear & Actuator Inspection: We measure remaining clutch life from live data and physical inspection, and check the actuator for fluid leaks, motor health and reference-position drift.
- Sensor & Hydraulic Check: Gear-position sensor, solenoids and hydraulic pressure are tested so we separate an electronic fault from a mechanical one before quoting.
- Fixed Quote & Your Approval: You receive a clear, itemised, fixed quote. Nothing proceeds until you approve it — the invoice matches the estimate exactly.
- Repair With Genuine / OE Parts: We replace the clutch kit, actuator or sensor with genuine or OE-grade parts and service the gearbox in our in-house transmission bay.
- Calibration, Adaptation & QC Road Test: After assembly we relearn the clutch touch-point, reset adaptation, clear codes and road-test in real traffic until the shifts are smooth and consistent.
- Handover With 1-Year Warranty: Your car is returned clean, with the work explained and a 1-year warranty on the clutch and actuator repair.
Why Metre Per Second
AMT-Specific Expertise
We treat AMT as its own discipline — clutch touch-point relearn, actuator reference setting and TCU adaptation — not as a generic gearbox swap.
Proper Calibration Tools
We use brand scanners and adaptation routines for Maruti AGS, Tata iAMT and Renault Easy-R, so the actuator and clutch are taught correctly, not guessed.
Genuine / OE-Grade Parts
Clutch kits, actuators and sensors from OEM suppliers — not the cheap kits that bring the jerk back within months.
Fixed Quotes, No Surprises
You approve an itemised price after inspection. The invoice never exceeds the quote.
Free Pickup & Drop
Doorstep collection across KPHB, Kukatpally, Madhapur, Gachibowli, Hi-Tech City, Banjara Hills and Jubilee Hills.
1-Year Warranty
Every clutch and actuator job is backed by a 1-year warranty — proof we stand behind the work.
Why AMT Repair Is Needed — Common Causes
Dry-Clutch Wear in Traffic
AMTs ride a single dry clutch. Constant crawl in Hyderabad traffic wears the friction plate thin, so it can no longer engage smoothly and the car jerks between 1st and 2nd.
Actuator Calibration Drift
Over time the actuator loses its learned clutch touch-point. The TCU then engages too early or too late, producing the classic low-speed jerk and hesitation.
Actuator Motor & Hydraulic Failure
The electro-hydraulic actuator motor can wear, leak or develop electrical faults, causing delayed engagement, gear-not-selecting and a transmission warning light.
Degraded Gear Oil
Old MTF inside the manual gearbox increases friction and notchy selection. Overdue gear oil is a common, cheap-to-miss cause of worsening shift jerk.
Gear-Position Sensor Faults
A failing gear-position sensor confuses the TCU about which gear is engaged, leading to wrong-gear selection, hunting and limp mode.
Riding the Clutch on Inclines
Holding the car on the throttle on flyovers and parking ramps instead of using the brake overheats the dry clutch and accelerates its wear.
How To Avoid AMT Repair — Prevention
Change Gear Oil on Schedule
Service the AMT gear oil (MTF, typically 75W-85 GL-4) every 40,000 km or 2 years. Fresh oil noticeably reduces shift jerk and extends clutch life.
Use the Brake on Inclines
On flyovers, ramps and signals, hold the car with the brake — not by feathering the throttle. This keeps the dry clutch cooler and lasts far longer.
Shift to Neutral When Stopped
At long signals, slip into N instead of holding D against the brake. It takes load off the clutch and actuator.
Get Calibration Done Early
A periodic clutch touch-point relearn keeps shifts smooth and stops the actuator from over-stressing a slipping clutch.
Don't Ignore Early Jerk
Address mild jerk while it is still a calibration job. Ignoring it turns a ₹2,000–₹4,000 fix into a full clutch and actuator replacement.
Periodic AMT Health Scan
An annual scan of clutch wear values and actuator data catches wear before it becomes a warning light and an expensive overhaul.

Recent Repairs at Our Workshop
Maruti AMT Jerk Cured Without a New Clutch
Maruti Suzuki Celerio · AGS (Auto Gear Shift)
Problem: Severe low-speed jerk between 1st and 2nd in city traffic. A general garage had recommended a full clutch and actuator replacement.
Work done: Live data showed the clutch still had healthy life remaining — the real issue was a drifted actuator touch-point and degraded gear oil. We ran a full clutch calibration and adaptation reset, changed the spec MTF and road-tested in traffic.
Outcome: Smooth, jerk-free shifts restored at a fraction of the replacement quote, delivered with a warranty. (₹3,500)
Tata iAMT Limp Mode Traced to the Actuator
Tata Nexon · iAMT
Problem: Delayed engagement, intermittent limp mode and a transmission warning light, leaving the car stuck in a single gear.
Work done: TCU scan revealed actuator and gear-position-sensor faults rather than clutch failure. We rebuilt the electro-hydraulic actuator, replaced the gear-position sensor, cleared codes and relearned adaptation.
Outcome: Crisp gear selection and warning light gone, with a 1-year warranty on the repair. (₹7,500)
Renault Easy-R Worn Clutch Rebuilt to Factory Feel
Renault Kwid · Easy-R AMT
Problem: Heavy clutch judder during parking and hill starts on a high-mileage car driven daily in stop-go traffic.
Work done: Inspection confirmed a worn dry clutch. We fitted a quality clutch kit — plate, pressure plate and release bearing — set the actuator reference and ran a full adaptation.
Outcome: Judder eliminated and smooth take-off restored. The owner reported it drives better than it had in years. (₹8,500)
Customer Reviews
★★★★★ Praveen Kumar, Kukatpally — Maruti Swift AGS
My Swift AMT was jerking badly between 1st and 2nd in traffic. They did a clutch calibration and actuator service — no expensive overhaul needed. Shifts are smooth now and the price was exactly as quoted.
★★★★★ Sandeep Reddy, KPHB — Tata Nexon iAMT
Delayed gear engagement and a transmission warning light. They scanned the TCU, found an actuator solenoid fault and fixed it the same day. Honest team, free pickup from home.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AMT and why does it need specialist repair?
AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) is a regular manual gearbox with an electro-hydraulic actuator and a TCU that operate the clutch and shift gears for you. Because it combines a dry clutch, an actuator, sensors and software, it fails differently from a torque-converter automatic — so it needs calibration and adaptation, not just part-swapping.
Why does my AMT car jerk during gear shifts?
The most common causes are a worn dry clutch, actuator calibration drift (a lost touch-point), degraded gear oil, or TCU software issues. Often the cure is a clutch calibration and adaptation reset costing ₹1,500–₹3,000 — not a full overhaul. We diagnose the exact cause before quoting.
Do you repair Maruti AGS, Tata iAMT and Renault Easy-R?
Yes — we service all Indian AMT systems: Maruti AGS (Swift, WagonR, Baleno, Celerio, S-Presso, Dzire, Alto K10, Ignis, Fronx), Tata AMT/iAMT (Tiago, Nexon, Punch, Tigor, Altroz), Renault Easy-R (Kwid, Triber, Kiger), Hyundai AMT (Grand i10 Nios, Aura, Exter, Santro) and Mahindra AMT.
How often should AMT gear oil be changed?
Every 40,000 km or 2 years, whichever comes first. AMTs use the manual gearbox's MTF (typically 75W-85 GL-4). Fresh gear oil noticeably reduces shift jerk and extends clutch life.
How much does AMT repair cost in Hyderabad?
Clutch calibration/reset is ₹1,500–₹3,000, actuator repair/replacement is ₹3,500–₹8,000, a clutch kit replacement is ₹5,000–₹9,000, and a complete overhaul is ₹15,000–₹30,000 depending on the car. You always get a fixed quote after a free inspection.
Can I keep driving if my AMT is jerking?
Only briefly. Continued driving with a jerking AMT accelerates clutch wear and can damage the actuator and gearbox internals — turning a small calibration job into a major overhaul. Get it scanned as soon as possible.
Do you offer free pickup and drop?
Yes, free pickup and drop across KPHB, Kukatpally, Madhapur, Gachibowli, Hi-Tech City, Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills and Kondapur. Call or WhatsApp 8555824915 to schedule.
How long does AMT repair take and is there a warranty?
A clutch calibration takes 1–2 hours, a clutch replacement is usually same-day (4–6 hours), and a complete overhaul takes 2–3 days. Every clutch and actuator job is backed by a 1-year warranty.
