    Vehicle : Insignia

    Trim : Sri

    Engine : 140 Ecoflex S/S

    Year : 2013

    Will go and get Haynes manual from garage, back in 10 mins.

    Right, well according to Haynes manual, the 1.8 has, and I quote, "F17+WR/CR", where WR = wide ratio and CR = close ratio.

    The final drive ratio is the same for WR or CR @ 3.94:1, but the 5 forward gears have different ratios depending on whether CR or WR.

    Hope this helps.

    Sorry, forget to add that the Haynes manual covers the 1.8 from June 2002 to September 2005 models.

    Look through the specs on gmproductforum and of the opinion that only the sxi's and sri's got the close ratio box, so looking like a F28 Wide ratio.
