I'm looking to change the oil in my M32 gearbox and was wondering if there was any changes over the mk's of Astra to the layout of filler, drain and level check plugs?
I found this how to, seems pretty good. Is it similar or still the same? I can't see why they would change the layout. I think the link is for the Astra H VXR M32.

Hi
Does anyone know if the oil cooler on the 1.6 na engine is prone to leaking oil in to the cooling system. My daughter's car has oil on the surface of the water in the coolant header tank. I have drained and flushed the system twice and cleaned inside the header tank, only for the oil to return again. There isn't a great amount in there, but would like to find the cause .

The car has done 55k miles and has been well serviced and looked after. I suppose it could be the head gasket , hop

[align=center]This was done on my 1.6T GTC however the process is the same but the location of the sump plug and oil filter may differ slightly.Order

Hi everyone, i just wanted to ask for any recomendations on which is the best oil to use for my 2.0 cdti sri. Is any brand better than others?

Hi all, going to order all my stuff for servicing the car. Looking at fuel and oil filters and bosch and mann are the more expensive ones on the market. I dont mind paying it but wondered whats the difference between them and a cheaper brand? Are they going to make my car run better than a different brand? Or is it just the brand name im paying for?
Thanks guys

Hi Guys
I need to top up Motor oil, can i use this to top up Oil from Asda Castrol Magnetec 5W 30 or do i just buy another 5 litre from Vauxhall, as this is different brand and may be slightly different viscosity, which i am not sure.

[color=#141414][size=small][font=Tahoma, Georgia, serif]5w 30 GM dexos 2 oil this is what i used last tim

When reading the oil level my dipstick has two plain segments sandwiched between two hatched segments.

Where is the ideal level. Should the top hatched segment be covered with oil or should the oil stop at the division between the plain segment and the top hatched segment?
