Question 1

What should I check on the clutch of a used manual Opel?

Accepted Answer

Whether it bites very high or judders pulling away, both signs of wear. On a diesel, a rattle at idle that fades when the pedal is pressed often points to a tired dual-mass flywheel, a costly part to replace.

Question 2

Does a manual Opel pay less road tax in Luxembourg than an automatic?

Accepted Answer

Not as such: road tax follows the car's official CO₂ figure and fuel, not its gearbox. A manual and an automatic version can have slightly different CO₂ figures, which moves the tax a little either way.

Question 3

Which used Opel models came with a manual gearbox?

Accepted Answer

Nearly all petrol and diesel versions of the Corsa, Astra, Crossland, Mokka, Grandland X and Insignia, as well as the Combo and the older Zafira Tourer. Electric versions such as the Corsa-e and Mokka-e are automatic only.

Question 4

Which new Opel models come with a manual gearbox?

Accepted Answer

The Corsa and Frontera with the 100 PS 1.2 Turbo, the Mokka with the 136 PS 1.2 Turbo, and the Combo Life with a 110 PS petrol or a 100 or 130 PS diesel. Every Hybrid and electric Opel is automatic.
