Yes they do, all f13/f15 gearboxes use gaskets they dont have any face to face joints!

I thought Vauxhall gearboxes were grease filled, not oil filled.

you should have took it off altogether though and fitted a new gasket! What oil did you use?

Yeah, thats how you are meant to do it.

Worth doing on any car as its rarely done with service intervals.

Right i just changed my gearbox oil because the gears were filling abit sticky and now its a bit better.

But when i was doing it i never fully took the diff plate of i just loosened the bolts so that the old oil just ran out. Then i filled it back up until oil started to run out of the level hole.

Would this have been an ok way the change the oil?
