Frequently asked questions
Gearbox warning light appeared on my automatic car in Hyderabad — is it safe to drive?
Treat a gearbox warning light as amber alert — it means the transmission ECU has detected a fault. If the car is driving normally (no jerking, normal gear changes), drive carefully to a workshop. If the car has gone into limp mode or is jerking, stop driving — continued driving with a transmission fault risks expensive internal damage. Metre Per Second performs transmission scans (₹1,000–₹2,000) and shows you the exact fault code before recommending any repair.
