i do not know much about these. I think they were only offered as WR on cruisers like cav 1.8/2.0 8v's, Vectra Diesels, 1.8 petrols and probably a few Astras.

The only Corsa with f15 as standard was the Sport 1.6 and pre 1994 GSi's. Kris, the F15 has different ratios in 4th and 5th, and also a different final ratio.

no mines an f13wr but i have suspicions that the one in my bros is a cr cos his revs a lot high at lower speeds, ie mine does 80 mph at 3k in 5th whereas his is doin 60 at 3k.

i thought vaux especially made this f15 for the dervs, and it was WR for better consumption. is urs a f13 CR?

its the same box isnt it? f13 cr even if the 1.4 has the f15 is the same gearing just stronger casing, not that the engine needs it. i got an f13 on my td and that has more torque than a gsi and its fine.
