Reconditioned Opel Astra 1.3 CDTi Gearbox – Reference 95518580

This reconditioned gearbox is available for the Opel Astra fitted with the 1.3 CDTi engine, 1248 cm³ capacity, engine codes Z13DTH and A13DTE, under reference 95518580. Reconditioning follows a thorough process: the gearbox is fully stripped down, every component is cleaned and inspected, then the gears, synchros, bearings and seals are replaced according to the wear found. The unit is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch, ensuring performance in line with the original specification under reference 95518580.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On this 5-speed manual gearbox, several warning signs should be heeded before a complete failure occurs:

• stiff, grinding or crunching gear changes, particularly when selecting second or fifth gear;
• gears jumping out on their own or refusing to engage, especially reverse;
• persistent metallic noise in neutral or when pressing the clutch pedal;
• unusual vibrations felt through the gear lever whilst driving;
• gearbox oil leak visible beneath the vehicle, often accompanied by a distinctive smell.
