Thanks to cyclehead I was successfully able to reseal both my gsa and hpu! But I believe I have either installed a sensor wrong or I just have a damaged sensor or maybe I didn't plug something in right because I was going through the relearning process and when I was prompted to turn the car on...

I know this has probably been asked, and answered before, however I could not find any posts related to this. I have an SMT spyder that I am converting to a manual and was hoping that I would be able to use my old SMT transmission instead of buying a 'new' one, as I am in Australia so pretty...

Hello everybody, I have a 2005 SMT. The car turns on great. When I open the driver door the pump makes a sound for about 7 seconds (which according to the forums means that the pump is good). There are no visible leaks at all. The liquid is at the right level for the pump. It will not shift...

Ok, I need help!! My 2003 Spyder ran and shifted fine when I parked it in the fall. I went to try and start it today and found my battery tender had crapped out. Charged the battery, started right up but immediately threw codes P0860 and 1646... Car wouldn't go into gear and then shut off after...

I have a 2004 mr2 6spd smt with 80k miles and not long ago it stopped moving! The green neutral light is flashing, the smt light is on, and it is beeping. I can seemingly put it into 1, 2, and R but the car doesn't move whatsoever so I'm lead to believe it's stuck in neutral. Here's what I've...

This’ll be my first post on this community and just wanna thank all you people for all the knowledge and resources you’ve put together on these cars. Special shout-out to Cyclehead for his HPU and GSA seal repair kits and all the help he’s given me thus far. Now that that’s out of the way, I’ve...

Due to doing a transmission swap, on a 2003 SMT, and finding out that I couldn't connect my OBDII to the ECU meaning that I couldn't perform a new parts relearn I got a new 'to me' ECU and TCU. When I got everything hooked up and started my car, it is now running extremely rough and to stop it...

I recently got a new ECU and TCU (I have a 2003-4 PFL SMT). My previous ECU is somewhat fried, I can not connect any sort of OBDII cable to it, and it is no longer able to manage the engine control. When I start the engine it will run extremely rough for a few seconds, and then it will stop. The...

Greetings all! Actually just joined to ask this in hopes for some more effective assistance pinpointing some SMT issues. Have been sifting through threads for the past few days now and haven't found a situation exactly similar. Bits and pieces in common yes, but nothing that fully allows me a...

My freind is looking for a mr2. Iv never driven an smt but there is a mint one with an smt for 6500. Is the smt slower shifting than the manual? What are the downsides to the smt?

Hey Spyder Family, I'm having an interesting combination of issues and while I do some troubleshooting I figured I'd poll the community to see if anyone has some insight. Didn't place in the SMT section as I think it's a broader electrical issue, but will tag as SMT so this is searchable...

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has seen this issue before. I bought an '02 SMT about a month ago and knew it had transmission issues from the start. At first it had some issues shifting into reverse or first gear, but it would go in if I cycled from neutral to reverse a couple of times. It...

I’m planning on using this Bosch brake fluid to flush my brakes. Will it also be ok for the SMT? I believe so but I just want reassurance. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=11727065

Hi all, having a bit of trouble (expected) with my SMT Spyder. It all started a couple of days ago with the car suddenly stalling at a red light trying to take off in first suddenly. Limped home by revving and engaging first which was a bit jittery but got the car home. Tried the battery...

Hi all, this is my first post here as a new owner of an '02 SMT Spyder. Luckily it looks like I haven't had any major issues with the SMT, however I'm getting a nasty whine in 1-3 gears. I think one of the transmission bearings is shot and there's grinding from 1-2 and 4-5. Rather than...

I have an 03 5speed SMT Spyder that when I shift into fourth, the gear doesn't engage. This has been a problem since I bought it. Everyone that has driven it reckons that the syncro has gone. I currently have the gearbox out of the car, which is a C60 as opposed to the C56 that the vin plate...

2004-dash says S1, but revs freely like in neutral and won’t go. Additionally, R light comes on, can hear it engage the gear, car won’t roll but still revs and won’t go like it is in neutral. I want to keep it an SMT, any thoughts?

I have a 2004 with 60 K miles and SMT. I had postponed changing the SMT fluid since it was a slight pain, and needed to clean out garage for some working space. First there were no issues with the SMT before starting the fluid change over. No leaks no issues with the function of the SMT I read...

Hi I have a 2003 SMT. The car is not starting. When I turn the key nothing happens. The clock does dim when I turn the key. Headlights remain bright. I do not see any gear indicator light illuminated. I do hear the pump run and shut off. The fuses in the engine compartment look ok. The car sits...

Hi I have a 2003 smt. I don't drive the car that much, last time was a month ago. I get in, open the door hear the pump charge. Turn the key nothing. No gear indicator light displayed. Looked at fuses, nothing. I am not sure if I can even get the car towed as it still may me in gear. Headlights...
