[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1108931, member: 176704"] They "went well" as well - got fed up being blown off by them on the M4, and that's one of the reasons I bought the Mk 1 1600cc Astra:D BTW: I did around 50k in that Astra before the crank broke, and then nearly 200k in the following 3x Mk II Astra 1.8i SRi estates, and I never had any problems with the gearboxes or clutches on any of those 4 (although the Mk 1 went through several clutches), and those parts were still fine when I got rid of the cars - 1st was written off by someone else at 128k, and the other two succumbed to general age and/or tinworm at around 150k each, although both did get sold on to someone else!
