First I am not fluent with the year model you have.However being I own a 87bseries for the last 23 years here are my suggestions.Check the clutch fluid reservoir for the fluid level.If low check the slave cylinder which is mounted on the transmission on the right hand side for leaks.If it is leaking it should be replaced and bleed this from the bleeder screw on the unit as you would brakes.Simply fill the reservoir and have someone pump the clutch by hand at first and open the bleeder and and check the fluid level and keep full in this process until no air bubbles.Now if this is not the case did the throw out bearing have noise while in gear or in neutral before hand.If this is the case it could be a problem however if no noise was present which is normally something that is long term I would rule this out.If the clutch itself were a issue it would slip,and not go into 1st or 2nd gear normally not 4TH!I would check your slave cylinder fluid and if it is low it probably time to change out the slave or even the clutch master only if the master is leaking at the rubber seals for the clutch master in most cases.Unless I am just overthinking the issue it should be the items I listed unless the transmission itself has worn bearings or another issue I will not go into now.OK

Why does Astra auto 8v stall when slowing?
If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, then the torque converter clutch is probably sticking. The clutch is controlled by a solenoid, that moves it back and fourth. The clutch material can get stuck to the inside of the converter and stall the engine. Have the transmission flushed, and if the problem persists, then have the solenoid replaced.

Hi have a 2000 automatic Astra and approx once a day when slowing down it just cuts out sometimes struggles to start straight up again but never struggles starting in morn any ideas please?
The torque converter clutch is probably sticking. The clutch is controlled by a solenoid, that moves it back and fourth. The clutch material can get stuck to the inside of the converter and stall the engine. This problem can be worsened by heat. Have the transmission flushed, and if the problem persists, then have the solenoid replaced.

If you are having trouble with your overdrive, it could most likely be the end clutch also known as fourth gear that needs to be replaced. i had to replace mine about 6 months ago. it doesn't cost too much to replace either.

First check the gear oil in the transmission. If low top it up. If correct take the unit out and drive until the transmission is warm. (about 20-30 min) Then change the gear oil. Fresh gear oil may improve the shifting.
