Automatic Gearbox Oil Change on an Opel Insignia

Model: Vauxhall Insigna Insigna A, MK 1 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Transmission

To change the oil in the automatic gearbox, you need to lift the car (preferably with a ramp; otherwise, use jacks and axle stands, ensuring the vehicle is secure). Position a large container under the gearbox and remove the lower bolt that acts as a plug for the gearbox, as clearly shown in the video. We mentioned a large container because there will be about 7 litres of oil in the automatic gearbox. In the video, you can also see the recommended oil container. Fill the gearbox with this oil and this quantity. Cheers!

To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
