  • This is the second video in the series on servicing the Vauxhall Vivaro 2.0L 2007 Diesel Van. This time we change the gearbox oil. Again it's quite a lengthy video but I really want you to be able to do these jobs on your own vehicles after watching these.

    After several derogatory comments made by a so called moderator on a Facebook forum I would like to point out that the oil used in this video is what was recommended by my local car parts supplier. This may not be the recommended oil for all vans. Please do not just buy this oil because it is what I have used. My Van is a 2007 with 172k miles on the clock so it is reasonable to expect different requirement to yours.

    This is a good video giving people a good heads up practical advice. I like your emphasis on safety a good few years ago I attended the scene of a fatal incident where a jack had lowered onto a male mechanic. Very sad and traumatic for the close family please use a axle stand folks and take an extra minute to think a job out.

    thank you buddy will do this in a minute and this is exactly what I was looking for. Different van (Nissan nv400) but roughly same parts and you're the only one explaining and showing the process clearly . Thanks

    Nice video mate. Your van you use what oil you want! What you made is a informative video, people can take what they want from it. To make it easier next time try shoving a piece of garden hose in box up out the bonnet no need to remove wheel that way bud.

    That oil looked clean..

    Next time you do it if you get a meter or so of hose and a funnel you just put hose in hole and pour oil in funnel from outside wheel arch makes it a lot easier.

    Hello. Thank you for video. I want to follow these steps on a Renault Trafic. Please tell me which are dimensions for metal washer that you used for drain screw. I expect I have to buy one in order to change the old one. Also, for filler hole, I see you put a rubber seal. Do you know, approximatively the dimensions? The rubber is regular rubber or it should be some high temperature resistant rubber? Thank you.

    i buy the gear oil cans with the longer pipes on the container, they go right into the hole, you still need to take the panel out though..

    Also, do you need to remove the engine shield in order to get access to the drain hole? Thank you

    Hi. Im a bit confused. You said 2.7L of oil to go into the gearbox? A certain motor factor has told me its 2.35L to 2.5L ? I have a vivaro 2007 1.9 cdti f9q 760 6 speed. Also, could i fill until the oil overflows out of the filler hole and let the level set itself? Thanks.

    Any idea if it's the same for a 2017 bu turbo trafic? Cheers

    I just changed the oil on my renault master after finding out the gearbox was completely dry and now my van is failing to start. Are the vivaros similar? I know my way around an engine and car but this has puzzled me

    What was the torque value for the drain plug?
