Hey folks, was wondering where i would get the correct gear oil from for a corsa b C12NZ engine, as it says in the haynes manual that i need a specific vauxhall type and also i think i need to have a new diff gasket or something. wanting to have a stab at it myself.
either that if i took it into a garage would thay have all the said oils and stuff and what kind of cost would i be looking at?? i have side skirts on the car so i think that would be a problem getting it jacked up also.
any help would be great folks

My local garage charged my in the realms of £15-30 if i remember correctly.
They'll either work round it or they'll jack it up via the car axle. But 2bh they will probably use the ramps if anything as it'll be easier is say.
If you we're to have a bash yourself, i would rather put vauxhall specific in the gear-box compared to "Bob's oil" from down the road as you never know really.

Mines the same cept it's reverse (lift up) and first, not much but it's still there.
If anything source your own bits and just ask them to do it, you know whats going in there then
