@@Souscheff For an idiot it probably does.

@@Souscheff rofl, I actually found this comment hilarious !

Anybody know what size the bit is to take of the bolt??

the refill plug is not tight at all. I've just checked mine and it was easy to open. And there is a second one a little below with a 15mm hex screw, that one is not tight neither. Just use the correct wrenches sizes and it's be easy. It's 8mm Allen for the screw.

​@@seanisnotmyrealname3930Allen 8mm If it's a newer screw it's Torx T 50 i think.

you can not check oil level in a gear box. You need to remoove it to mesure how much you've pulled out.

Sorry, no...

@@CarlosAlberto-es6qc ok no worries; just a quick question; is it better to add / drain several times (3 times) to make sure all old oil is out ? or just drain and fill is enough

In my opinion it is a waste of oil, I change at intervals of 50,000kms

@@CarlosAlberto-es6qc I got an insignia 2009, bought it 2 months ago; it drives perfectly except that downshifting from 3rd to 2nd upon braking is sometimes harsh (but if I was braking firmly the downshift form 3rd to 2nd gear is very smooth) so I thought it needs oil change as I don't know anything about its service history the car is now 94500 KM

i dont think the gearbox oil get to 85°C, that's the temperature for the coolant liquid. Even the engine oil doesn't get to 85°C.

I drained into a marked container and replaced what I took out I’ve read you can be about a half liter above or below recommend and you can remove the check plug and see if it is at the correct level

@@joellofquist2537 what you mean check plug??? Filling plug???

@@ivanpetrov2280 drain plug has a center screw for checking fluid level by removing this small screw any excess will drain out ... to fill it the plug on top of the transmission is where you would do that... always make sure you can fill it before draining it...

Anybody know what size the bit is to take of the bolt??

​@@ivanpetrov2280the 15mm hex screw a little under the fill screw.

it need something like 2 liters, maybe a little more, not 4liters for sure.

I've pulled 1,9L from my F40 yesterday and other people tell me the same, so i'll put 2L.

U pitanju je Z19DTH agregat po GM specifikaciji, ili narodnim jezikom Fiat 1.9 JTDm. Mjenjac je F40 i neces imati problema ako pratis fabricke specifikacije GM-a. U pocetku se sipalo 3.3l, a nakon revizije preporuke su 2.4l. Govorim konkretno za kombinaciju iz videa, s Insignijom nemam iskustva.

what kind of oil you used? I see most people use 75w oil, but if its still not good for you you should use thinner oil like 70w

@@johnnyhun1 I used the oil which you use it, they didn't wrote if it 75 or 70

2014 cdti 2.0 140HP A20DTE has the F40 manual has well.

Who said it was only 1 liter? 7:39

Carlos Daniel you put 1 liter and should be check it under middle plug remove if see leak out mean enough must be 2.3 liter so 1 liter not enough load people do that 1 liter few month later BANG gearbox get gone

If you read the subtitles I say 2.5litros

Carlos Daniel 👌🏼

3l

@Rake van NelleOk i'll follow your new rule , not the rule of manufacturer hahaha

There isn't a overflow hole for the F40 gearbox, from factory till 2009 this gearbox came with 3+ liters of oil but gm came with a revision stating that if the gearbox has hard shifting when cold (1-2 gears specifally) the required amount of oil will be 2.4 so you need to put 2.2 as 0.2 remains in the gearbox

@@anubaral in mine f40 there is an overflow plug for the transmission oil. Next to the drive shaft. Check it

@@paulkomn946 Dude, there is no overflow plug for f40 in the vectras... check the haynes manual, go check the gearbox, that is not an overflow. U sure you aren't confusing it with the M32 wich have one and they look pretty simmilar? It states very clearny, you measure the fuel before pouring it in, simple as that

​@@anubarali have an F40 on my 2014 insignia and i have a screw 15mm hex screw a little under the fill screw.
