    Default Gearbox removal tips

    I have a Vectra C SXI (z18xe engine), and I think I might need to replace the gearbox (F17)

    After having a read on the net some people say they can change the gearbox without lowering the subframe. Is this possible? Has anybody got any tips if it is?

    On the 1.8 you can change it by removing the gear box side subframe bolts and just loosening the engine side subframe bolts and basically twisting it around to drop it out. Never had to do it myself so just quoting what ive read too.
