Delivery and Shipping

UK delivery — parts we hold in stock

Ordered before 2pm on a working day, these are dispatched the same day by express courier and normally arrive within 1–2 working days.

Parts supplied from our European supplier

A large part of our range is held by our supplier in Germany rather than on our own shelves. We order these in for you as soon as you place the order. They normally dispatch within 7–10 working days, and are then sent on by express courier like anything else. Nothing ships to you direct from Germany — it comes to our Arlesey workshop first, so you deal only with us for returns and warranty.

Collection from Arlesey

Click and collect is available on parts we physically hold. If an item has to come in from our supplier it cannot be collected, and checkout will tell you so before you pay.

International

3–5 working days once dispatched. Any customs charges or excise duties are the responsibility of the buyer.

How do I know if I have a Gen 2 M32 gearbox?

The M32 gearbox was produced in three main generations. Gen 2 units use the sub-code MZ0 and were manufactured up to 07/01/2016. Check your gearbox code plate or measure the internal diameter of the gear before ordering to confirm compatibility.

Is this gear compatible with all M32 gearboxes?

No. This gear fits Generation 2 M32 gearboxes only (sub-code MZ0, up to 07/01/2016). It is not compatible with Gen 1 or Gen 3 (2016 onwards) M32 units. Please verify your gearbox generation before ordering.

What causes 4th gear failure on the M32?

The M32 4th input gear can suffer from cracking, chipping, or excessive wear — often related to the known M32 bearing failure that allows shaft movement under load. It is advisable to address the bearing issue at the same time as replacing the gear to prevent recurrence.

What is the OE part number for this gear?

The OE part number is 55182042, used across Vauxhall, Opel, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Abarth, and Chevrolet applications sharing the M32 Gen 2 platform.

Can I fit this gear myself?

M32 gearbox internal work requires the gearbox to be removed and disassembled. This is a specialist job. Eco Torque can supply all the parts needed for a full rebuild — contact us for assistance.
