    You may not have had the best tools. or the cleanest environment. But this helped me soooo much! Thank you for posting this!

    Wow, there are some typical backstreet mechanics making comments.
    I think some people can only feel good about themselves when they're making
    others feel bad?
    This video doesn't claim to be more than it is and I liked it.
    The title doesn't say gearbox repair, recondition or restore but it does say gearbox
    disassembly and that is exactly what I see.
    If people who watch this can't understand that it's only a rough guide to disassembly and not a step by step workshop instructional on how to restore a gearbox then they should probably put down their tools and step away from the vehicle.
    And the trolls should get a grip, you don't need to be a rocket scientist to become
    a backstreet mechanic.
    And I think the negative comments say more about the people who made them than they do about the person who made this video.

    thanks for your video,i needed to see inside that top cover the gear linkage goes into,as my cars lying 15 miles away broke down as i have no gears,my gear stick is working as it should,but the shaft coming out the gearbox has popped out roughly 3 inches,and it won't stay in the gearbox,now i know i have to go get the top linkage housing from the scrap yard,this is the first video showing me inside that top cover after looking for days,thanks for this mate !

      I found that bit interesting, as I am in the process of changing the gearbox on a 1.6 Zafira B. The one peter has here is a rod change, like yours. Mine is a cable change and that top 'bonnet' is different, but interchangable. My new gearbox came with a rod change, so I swapped the bonnet, for my old cable one. Couldn't get reverse. That long finger that sticks out, is the reverse selector. Then I found the new box has a different arrangement on the shaft, where it locates and needs to be shorter. It's a nightmare, trying to get the right parts for a Vauxhall. each car seems to be unique.

    I was cringing when you were taking the circlip off...
    "This part now broke, which means I need to buy new part".. Where you really going to re use that circlip you had bent like a banana if it hadn't of snapped?
    Wouldn't let you within a mile of my gearbox to be honest.

    Possible the worst mechanic I've had the misfortune to watch. Would have loved to see it reassembled, just to see if the flanges sealed after the chisel butchering.

    to remove this cover you should just put the gearshift in neutral, and you will come out without much effort

      On Zafira F17 gear box you fill from reverse light sensor hole.
      And level of oil is on 13mm bolt on differential housing next to drive shaft
      I recon that on all gearboxes on vauxhall/opel filling and level are in same place
