• Iveco Daily 50C18 dealer issues

  We have contacted Iveco on your behalf and requested their response to your claims. While not trying to second-guess the company's comments I believe some of your concerns are unfounded. The gearbox, for instance, is an automated manual shift unit, which is a regular manual gearbox fitted with an automatic shift device, so it has the same gearbox and clutch as the straight manual gearbox, and there are no towing issues with that. The noisy diff has been replaced, so you can't be critical of Iveco for that, the wiper arm is easy to replace, the electric windows should be simple, which really leaves the main issue as the logic of the gear selection. Most automated shift gearboxes hesitate as they shift gears, it happens when the clutch is disengaged, the gear changed and the clutch re-engaged, which can feel awkward and definitely not as smooth as a regular auto trans. That's why VW developed the DSG gearbox, which employs two clutches for smoother, faster shifts.

• Iveco Daily 2013: My car won't drive in the bottom three gears

  Six-speed manual gearboxes often have gears one, two and three sharing a shaft inside the gearbox. The fact that you can select all those gears but not have any drive in them suggests that something on that shaft is failing to mesh with either the countershaft or the output shaft.
  
  Does the gearbox make any weird noises when you select any of the first three gears? Is there any oil leaking from the gearbox casing? It could be anything from a stripped gear or spline to a failed bearing. Either way, I think it’s probably a fundamental mechanical failure and you’re looking at a gearbox rebuild or replacement. At least if the top three gears are working, everything downstream of the gearbox seems to be okay.
