Looking for a used Toyota Etios gearbox in South Africa? Engine Finder connects you with verified suppliers and scrapyards across the country — you submit one enquiry and matched suppliers respond with prices and availability. The important detail up front: the Etios is a manual-only model in South Africa, so there is no factory automatic. Every SA Etios — 1.5 hatch, sedan and Cross — runs a 5-speed manual gearbox behind the 1.5 2NR engine. If you're offered an Etios "automatic gearbox", confirm the spec by VIN first, because SA-spec cars are manual. Tell suppliers your model, year and VIN, and verified Etios specialists will quote you on the correct 5-speed unit.
The Etios 5-speed manual is a straightforward, affordable transaxle with plenty of donor supply, which keeps second-hand quotes low. Most reported problems on high-mileage cars are ordinary wear rather than design faults — worn synchros causing a notchy or crunchy shift (often into second), bearing whine, and clutch wear that can feel like a gearbox issue. The clutch kit and flywheel aren't included with a used gearbox. Always match your exact 2NR engine and quote your VIN so suppliers send the right 5-speed unit first time.

As a guide from verified suppliers, a used Toyota Etios 5-speed manual gearbox typically ranges around R5,000 to R8,000 — one of the more affordable Toyota gearboxes thanks to good donor supply. Final pricing depends on condition, mileage and whether the unit is used or reconditioned, and the clutch kit is a separate item. Submit one enquiry through Engine Finder and compare current quotes from verified suppliers on your exact Etios.
No — the Etios is a manual-only model in South Africa, so there's no factory automatic gearbox to source here. The 1.5 hatch, sedan and Cross all use a 5-speed manual behind the 2NR engine. If you've seen an Etios advertised as "automatic", confirm the vehicle's specification by VIN before buying, as a wrong unit won't fit. Give suppliers your VIN and engine details and they'll quote you on the correct 5-speed manual.
The Etios 1.5 — hatch, sedan and Cross — uses a 5-speed manual gearbox paired with the 1.5 2NR petrol engine. It's a light-duty transaxle that's easy to source second-hand and cheap to interchange within the range. Because minor spec differences can exist across model years, confirm your exact engine and gearbox by VIN when requesting a quote so verified suppliers send the right 5-speed unit for your car.
No — a used Etios gearbox is normally supplied without the clutch kit or flywheel. Those are separate items, and since clutch wear is often mistaken for a gearbox fault, many buyers fit a new clutch while the box is out. Always confirm exactly what's included before committing. When you request a quote through Engine Finder, ask suppliers whether the clutch and flywheel can be supplied together with the 5-speed unit.
