Gearbox info

Just won this on eBay after looking for a long time for an estate and got it cheap £650 considering it’s just had a £900 flywheel and clutch replacement by Kevin Albert Williams https://youtu.be/8QBWZChm4A4
gearbox is knackered but I do have a 1.9 vectra f40 box and wondering if that will fit

If not I’ve found a insignia box with 16000 miles,fitting isn’t a problem as I work for a garage

From those pictures it's impossible to know which engine is in it apart from being a diesel. So could be an F40 or m32.

Its a 158 bhp so should be a f40 .its a rampant thing that the gearbox has gone wrong.

Yeah sorry 2.0 cdti and flywheel and clutch done but now bearings gone in gearbox

Sorry, still not enough info as both gearboxes are used on the 2 liter. Only the 160 hp has the F40 in this generation.

by the reg number it comes up as a 158 bhp unit ,so that in my mind equates to 160 .there abouts.

The gearboxes can be identified by their end casing if that helps, https://insignia-drivers.uk/forum/in...ge3#post287337

But I wouldn't know if the f40 from a vectra would fit the Insignia, the likes of Courtney or Thorney who uprate them would probably have the answer?
