I reckon you mockup assemble the cases fully torqued reach through the diff window with nothing but 1 shaft and it's bearings, shim that shaft, remove it then install next shaft and shim that, all through the diff window. Worst case I set wheel bearings by feel, but would obviously prefer to use a dial indicator somehow.
When I start the engine and start driving my ASTRA MK5 1.9, when I go into second gear i get two ticking noises. This happens only one time and next time it happens only after fully turning car off and starting again. Is this DMF?
I have a m32 gearbox io insignia and theres a hole in the gearbox that lead to oil leak. So if I change the gearbox do I have to change clutch and fly wheel?
Top vid mate always reccomend u to everyone you did a perfect job of my engine build on my Corsa 2 years later still running strong as ever keep the videos coming mate will give u a shout on insta 👍🏻
@@WGMotorworksUA-cam great video I'm after your services please, to recondition my vauxhall zafira m32 6 speed. Manual. Is there a number I can call you on WhatsApp please
So the price to do a full strip down, visual inspection and bearing replacement on a loose supplied gearbox is the same as a drive in drive out bearing replacement leaving gearbox in the car?
great vid guys, wish i brought mine to you 6 month ago, had a guy do mine in mk, was 6th gear bearings completely gone. fitted recon box and now whining 4th,5th,6th 6 months later. whats likely hood i might get lucky with dropping the oil for some titan sintofluid and a drop of moli slip?
I have a loud whining from what I assume is my gearbox in my corsa e vxr I can buy a used gearbox with 30k miles for £250 would it be better to buy this or to repair mine that’s fine 62k miles
Mine pops out of 4th gear if you dont rev match and at idle in neutral you can hear marbles rolling around in the box, when you press the clutch it stops
Hello ! That`s some professional gearbox build :D ! I would have a question, I`m not from the UK can`t really take my gearbox there, I had my gearbox rebuilt in 2018 and it is rattling again ( just like in 2018 when all of the bearing were worn out, both sides and every one ) how can I get my hand on a gen 2 gearbox casing ?
All my gears are fine a slight wine and twitch in 5th, but i have a grinding/scrapping sound in 2nd-6th, mainly 2nd as thats quite loud, no idea if its the box or a clutch bearing. It stops when clutch is pressed. In neutral and clutch out theres a slight scrapping sound. Anyone else experienced that? Its mainly on decelleration too
Any news? I have a similar problem after changing the clutch set . After the second new dmf the sound is still there so I don‘t know if is the gearbox or i am so unlucky with the dmf.
Being in the US nobody is repairing these transmission. I'm on my second used one and the bearings are bad after 35k. I'm willing to buy the tool to properly shim it but can't find info on the specs. Any way you guys could drop it in a comment or send an email?

Hi, can i ask you, do i have a problem with the gear box? ua-cam.com/video/l-lr9uVdGtc/v-deo.html I have it moving on third and fouth gear. Other one not, and no noise from the box at all. THANK YOU!
IDK how I missed watching this master at work.
From one mechanic to another, great work!
would have liked to have seen more detail on the preloading of the end case bearings, that was the main part i was interested in

I think youre looking for 0 lash with new bearings and once they wear in itll be about 2 or 3 thousands
Good to see you making content Warren 👍🏼 someone who can make interesting stuff 👍🏼
Thanks Ryan! :D
That’s pure class and nicely put together 👍🏻👍🏻
Top work Warren, very interesting to see whats involved in the gen 2 build
I'll be using your service after watching this video. See you soon.
The master at work 👍
Yes Sir!
Thank god mine is a 15 chevy sonic. Already got the upgrades from the start.
Great video I wish you were in Australia

I hear that running 3L of oil helps quite a bit as well?
Excellent video
Wich oil do you recommended? And how many liters?

Thanks for a great video! I have a Zafira 1,9 CDTI and it is impossible to put in gear five or six. What could the problem be?
great vid , what year was the case / Bearings upgraded in Astra VXR ?
Anyone know what tool he's using for the shim determination
So the price to do a full strip down, visual inspection and bearing replacement on a loose supplied gearbox is the same as a drive in drive out bearing replacement leaving gearbox in the car?
He said £550 plus vat in the video
Is only the bell housing and the Differential housing dependend of the car model?
Can you just fit the upgraded version in place of the old version
What grade oil and type do you recommend ?
Do you sell gen 2 kits by them self with shipping
Does meriva b ,2010, have gen 1 or gen 2?
What bolts close the gearbox main case . Have broken one and don't find it
Do you need to change the entire gearbox to do the Gen 2 upgrade or is it just the endcase with new bearings?
Did you find an answer in the end?
MIne seems to be good atm, the car has 175k KMs. I hope it does not give me problems, i dont drive much, barelly 3k km per year.

Sounds like possible dodgy repair! We see a lot of these. And regarding the whine, highly unlikely to fix anything!
I have a loud whining from what I assume is my gearbox in my corsa e vxr I can buy a used gearbox with 30k miles for £250 would it be better to buy this or to repair mine that’s fine 62k miles
what kind of tool do you use to remove outer ring? where i can buy
Mine pops out of 4th gear if you dont rev match and at idle in neutral you can hear marbles rolling around in the box, when you press the clutch it stops

We can supply new casings if required! Just the shimming we would have to leave to yourself.

I mean, where can i get this kit with the upgraded bearings too?
how much to fix my astra 1.9cdti gearbox i don't have gear 5 and 6

Mine was the gearbox, once done it has been fine. I got Warren, the chap in the video (wgmotorworks) to do mine
What years were gen1 vs gen2?
So does the gen 2 casing come on any of the later gearboxes
The Gen2 gearbox / case was fitted to cars from around 2012.

I'm interested in this as well
Hi!
How much oil should be loaded into the gen2 gearbox? Thanks!
Offical data is 2.2L on change and 2.4L on Dry fill - We used 2.5 Liters, and 3L with a breather
@@WGMotorworksUA-cam thank you! 🙂

Do diffs need shims when being changed?
Yes 100%, we have a way of checking without the gearbox being removed - but should always be checked and adjusted if need be!
It's a shame the M32 is so weak. I had to have it repaired and 4th gear already has issues again.
They aren't that bad - either having repeat issues from not replacing all the parts, or the way gear changes are carried out
@@WGMotorworksUA-cam I drive on track. For sure wear is higher. But it still has more issues than an F23 or F28. I might get in touch with you when I intend to drive on track again.

@@WGMotorworksUA-cam The bearings were replaced last time. Cooling should be alright. This time the gear shift moves when I accelerate in 4th.
