how old is the astra? but more importantly what engine and gearbox does it have? early engines with certain manual gearboxes you can change the clutch without removing the gearbox and subsequently saving about 4hours labour time. otherwise it is a gearbox outjob.

Help please 89 Geo Metro Took out transmition to replace clutch pressure plate ect and after I put it all back together the clutch works fine but it won't go into 1st 2nd or reverse any suggestions?
I had a somewhat similar problem on a '90 Geo Metro when I changed out the clutch & associated parts. It turned out after much frustration that the rebuilt pressure plate design was no good. It used many smaller clutch release fingers that weren't stiff enough to lift the pressure plate off the clutch disc when the clutch pedal was depressed. They deflected way too much. I had to pull it all back apart!!&*^$%$%$**!, then reinstall another mfg.'s pressure plate with fewer (8, if I remember) much stiffer release fingers, which worked fine. It sounds to me as though you may have a similar problem in which the clutch isn't fully releasing, making 1st, 2nd & reverse shifts impossible.

Here is a step-by-step guide to help you replace the clutch components on your Metro:Start by disconnecting the negative battery cable to prevent any electrical shocks.Disengage the transmission and remove the driveshaft.

Make sure to align the bearing with the splines on the shaft.Install the new pressure plate on the flywheel and tighten the bolts to the correct torque specification. This should be done in a crisscross pattern.Reinstall the transmission driveshaft and starter.
