M32 gearbox gone :(
Discussion
Not looking for help or advice I'd just like to have a little rant! I bought a 08 1.9 cdti sri vectra last week with 62,000 miles on the clock. It was running perfectly and I was so happy but was driving home 6 days into ownership and heard a faint whining and then a very loud bang! Got out and had a look underneath and couldn't notice anything so I towed it down to the garage for a look the next day. They rang me to say that the diff had fallen out and new gearbox for me 62,000 miles! The warranty is up at 60,000 I'm in ireland myself and rang the A-Z of breakers in the south and the north and every single one had an F40 but none had the M32 so had to order it in from a very helpfull crowd in middlesbrough for £900 without shipping! No point in the rant other than if you're buying a 08+ vectra you double check the fking gearbox
Feel a bit better now that I've vented
