...and this document I get it from Opel Service Finland. Funny cause this service says right oil with LS is 93165290 and other Opel Service says 93165694.

R U really sure?
Afaik HAS fills 2,5l in the completely dry Gearbox, after opening and reparing it.
Refilling 2,5 litre due to oil change is little too much i think...
BOT402 is GL4 SAE 75W-85
BOT303 is GL4 SAE 70W
Again: Neither BOT402 nor BOT303 has got explicit limited slip features.
Opel gave BO303 as successor of BOT402 to Drexler to test it, Drexler tested it with its diff in the M32 Gearbox and gave green lights.
Opel then says only Corsa D OPC NRE should use that transmission Oil, all other Corsas D - even normal OPC - should use BOT402.
Corsa E OPC with PP (PP=Performace Package: 4-piston Brembo calipers and Drexler diff) infact IS the Corsa D OPC NRE, beacuse whole Powertrain is completely 1:1 identical.
The normaly Corsa E OPC without PP has got no specific permission for BOT303, maybe thats the cause the second bottle says no to E OPC.
BOT303 is the one, that belongs to Corsa E OPC with PP, not the BOT402.And yes, Opel Servicepartners themselfes are often confusend how to deal with Corsa E OPC PP, because its really rare.
Not so rare is the fact that customers like us are better informed than them ...
Thaks for that, so after that is it clearly say that I used "wrong" oil on my OPC PP. I use two times 19 40 182 / 93165290. Picture below shows oil that I use.
And when you look at that picture of 19 40 182 and look then picture of bottle with same codes below, other one is ab/from and other one bis/up to with the same codes. Above is taken yesterday my local dealer of autoparts. All 4 pictures of GM bottles shows how stupid this thing is for the Corsa E OPC owners with or without limited slip. Same codes and different labels.

Can anyone tell me specific data of SAE this gearbox oils 19 40 004 / 93165694 and 19 40 182 / 93165290.
If I am wrong, please correct:
19 40 004 / 93165694 == BOT303, SAE 70W mod synthetic
19 40 182 / 93165290 == BOT402, SAE 75W-80
Autodata says that last one BOT402 is for the manual gearbox with limited slip.
Opel Service tells that they use that 93165694 for this gearbox since 2013.

Opel Service Finland just said that 93165694 is the right oil for the gearbox and 2 litres.
After hearing that I'm little confused cause I find two different photos of that oil, other one is "NOT FOR CORSA E OPC"

Hey Jasco,
At first: Don't be too worry about that dynamo noise.
Yes, u should'nt wait 5 years to fix it, but my gearbox for example sounds over a year now, it began really whisper qiuet and today u can hear it better driving with open windows.
Nonetheless it still works fine, i will make an appointment for maintenance some of the next months...
The "right" gearbox oil for performanc-package is the BOT303 (OPEL Partnr. 19 40 004), this was used for the Corsa D nürburgring-edition, which the Corsa E OPC with performance-package is technical improved successor.
BOT303 is also the successor of BOT402 (Opel Partnr. 19 40 182), both are fully synthetic GL4 smooth-running oils, but without explicit limitied slip features, so generally u can use both equally.
But back then Opel gave drexler the M32 with the newer oil BOT303 to test that package together with the drexler differential, drexler tested it and approved the BOT303, so probably thats the cause Opel took it in serviceplan as "the right one" for drexler limited slip differential.
Yealry change of Gearbox oil with drexler ist very important, but that dynamo noise is not a consequence of using the wrong oil, it is a constructive problem!All M32 gearboxes are affected, even with yearly change of oil, sadly its only a question of time...
Thanks for the fast answer. My Corsa is right now in the local Opel dealer and service, it was there like 3 weeks now. They take apart gearbox and find out the problem in the bearings. I thought same as you for the reason and oil. Oil is not the problem. But, I always change the oil 1 year or 10000km distances, and use that BOT402 (Opel Partnr. 19 40 182) oil for that cause same places and the some pictures from the bottle say that 19 40 004 is not for Corsa E OPC. So last oil change in the 70000km, after that I drove 500km daily driving and I heard that dynamo whining. But main reason is the gearbox but I think it also that low oil volume 1,8 litres.
But we'll see what's gonna happen...

Hi,
Can somebody tell me, what is the right code for the GM gearbox oil for the M32 with drexler? Some says it is GM 93165694 / Opel 1940004 and some says it GM 1940182 / 93165290?
I always use that latest one on my Corsa E OPC PP and 1,8 litres, but now gearbox is broken cause it makes dynano noise when driving.
