Abstract
A method for automatically warming up a clutch actuator for a clutch of a transmission in a vehicle, wherein the clutch actuator is operable by use of pressurized fluid and configured to actuate the clutch from an engaged to a disengaged state, and/or vice versa, the method including: identifying if a temperature is below a predetermined temperature value and if the clutch actuator is leaking, and if it is identified that the temperature is below the predetermined temperature value and that the clutch actuator is leaking; then repeatedly pressurizing the clutch actuator by use of the pressurized fluid until a state is reached indicative of the clutch actuator being functional, or until a maximum run out state is reached indicative of a faulty clutch actuator.
