Reconditioned Opel Astra 2.0 Turbo Gearbox – 6-Speed Manual – Ref. GETRAG-G8

Reconditioned Opel Astra 2.0 Turbo Gearbox GETRAG-G8

This reconditioned gearbox is designed for the petrol Opel Astra 2.0 Turbo, with an engine capacity of 1998 cm³, and is compatible with engine codes Z20LET, Z20LEH, Z20LER, A20NFT and B20NFT, under reference GETRAG-G8. A 6-speed manual unit, it is fully stripped, cleaned and inspected component by component before reassembly: gears, synchros, bearings and worn seals are systematically replaced, and the complete unit is then rebuilt to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch. The sporting nature of the Astra 2.0 Turbo places considerable demands on the gearbox, making thorough reconditioning essential before the unit is returned to service.

Signs That Your Gearbox Needs Replacing

On an Astra fitted with the 2.0 Turbo engine, several symptoms point to a gearbox that is past its best, particularly under hard use of the turbo:

• Increasingly stiff gear changes, especially from second to third;
• Crunching or grinding when changing gear, particularly under hard acceleration;
• A gear slipping out of engagement, or the gearbox jumping into neutral without driver input;
• Vibrations or judder felt through the gear lever at high revs;
• A low rumbling noise that grows louder as vehicle speed increases.

Exchange Basis: The Reconditioned Gearbox Is Dispatched Before Your Old Unit Is Returned

This GETRAG-G8 gearbox is sold on an exchange basis: it is rebuilt to 0 km and dispatched without waiting for the return of the old unit. The garage is therefore never left without a gearbox, and the vehicle is not off the road while waiting for a return. Once the reconditioned gearbox has been fitted, the old gearbox — casing intact — must be sent back; return of the old unit is required in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.
