JMC Vigus 2016 Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the JMC Vigus here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

  • I'm having gearbox issues in my 2023 JMC Vigus Pro

    The manual gearshift in a car can be quite a complex assembly with linkages, cables and pivots all crucial in maintaining the correct feel and shift precision. Any wear that develops in these parts or the bushes and bearings in which they run can contribute to a sloppy or loose gear-change.

    But this is usually a problem seen in older cars, not a nearly new one. But my other question is where you bought a 2023 JMC Vigus, as the brand left Australia in 2018, tanking after poor sales over just a handful of years on the market.

  • My JMC Vigus has low power and says 'SVS' on the dash

    The SVS warning literally means Service Vehicle Soon. It suggests that the on-board computer has detected something wrong with the vehicle, and is warning you that it needs attention pronto.

    The fact that it’s losing power is probably evidence of the computer placing it in limp home mode to prevent it doing any further damage to whatever mechanical system is causing the problem in the first place. Take it straight to a workshop and have the vehicle scanned to see what the fault might be.

  • I have to pump the brakes in my 2019 JMC Vigus 5 to stop

    First thing: Don’t drive this vehicle anywhere. Any time you need to pump the brakes to get a vehicle to stop, you have a major safety issue. Because the time taken to give the brakes that extra pump might just be the difference between stopping safely and running into something or someone.

    A workshop should be able to sort this, starting with what’s called bleeding the brakes. Over time, the braking system can ingest air which – unlike brake fluid – is compressible and can make the pedal feel spongy or require the pedal to be pumped before much happens. The bleeding process removes this air, leaving only brake fluid in the system.

    But you should also check the condition of the brake fluid as it should be changed periodically. There’s also the question of how the air entered the braking system in the first place, so you may need to replace some seals to prevent it happening again. Either way, the car is not safe to drive as it is, and should be towed to where ever it’s going to be fixed.

  • 2017 JMC Vigus having difficulties going into second gear

    You could be dealing with a gear-selector mechanism that is not adjusted properly. Or, you might be looking at worn synchromesh rings or some other wear inside the gearbox. The first problem is an easy one to fix, the second requires surgery on the innards of the transmission itself. Also, even though you’ve replaced the clutch, is it adjusted correctly?

    The problem shows up when the transmission is cold because that’s when the oil inside it is thickest. As the transmission warms up the oil flows a bit more easily and lubricates better, making everything slip together with less effort. A lot of people simply learn to live with a stubborn gearshift first thing in the morning, but if the cause of this is worn components, they aren’t going to fix themselves and will get gradually worse.
