2 transmission types came to the installation:
Type of transmission "OH" for the engines 16 * and 16 S
Type of transmission "OG" for the engines 19 S * and 19 E *
Since automatic transmissions are very exactly with achievement and torque
of the engines co-ordinated, B of models may do only "OH" - and/or in Ascona
B /Manta. "OG" transmissions with the calibration C 5 or a higher
calibration code to be inserted.

Function mode:
The OPEL automatic transmissions consist of a hydraulic torque converter and
a three-speed planetary gearbox downstream.
Technical principle:
Two impellers, the pumping and the turbine, face each other in a housing
filled with oil.
The pump impeller is propelled by the engine. It sets oil in motion that the
turbine blade wheel propels.
With increasing number of revolutions that rises
Pressure in this system. The efficiency rises with removing number of
revolutions difference between pumping and turbine, until finally pumping
and turbine with same number of revolutions run and make an approximately
loss-free power transmission possible.
Pumping and impeller work as hydraulic clutch.
By a third impeller, which idler, steered between pumping and turbine, the
oil flow in such a way that a higher drive moment is delivered, i.e. more
traction power. The hydraulic clutch became thereby the torque converter.
The torque converter works within a certain speed range as stepless
transmission. From a certain number of revolutions difference between pump
impeller and turbine on, he takes over the function
of a clutch.

Travelling comfort, security, prestige
- They can dedicate your whole attention to traffic.
- Imagine once stop and Go-traffic on the motorway or in the rush hour.
With the OPEL AUTOMATIC no continuing switching, domes, no more leg work.
- They save strength and nerves in city traffic.
- The OPEL AUTOMATIC helps you in city traffic fuel to save.
- There is no more clutch, which comes too fast.
- They have the hands freely for steering.
- Clutch do not replace gives it any longer.
- Optimal utilization of engine performance.
- Driving a car without jerking also at the mountain. Particularly well
for trailer.
- Decreased physical loads with driving a car.

The 2-Spoke wheel is alike in the standard design for the standard and
luxury models.
For the Manta b "SR" as well as for the Manta Berlinetta is intended an
Rallye execution with 4 spokes.
In the Manta b "GT/E" is inserted a 3-spoke. All steering wheels are
provided with a soft wreath/ring coat.
As ball bearings trained lower steering shaft bearings replaces the past
plastic bearing ring with felt sealing ring in the lower part of the
guidance supporting tube. The ball bearing represents a closed, sealed and
corrosion proof unit.

As ball bearings trained lower steering shaft bearings replaces the past
plastic bearing ring with felt sealing ring in the lower part of the
guidance supporting tube.
The ball bearing represents a closed, sealed and corrosion proof unit.
The lower steering column designed as torsion bar absorbs excessive demands
of the steering linkage with accident-similar situations.
The stop sleeve pressed so far into the steering housing on both sides was
void and/or was shortened.
The rack was extended due to the larger trace.
The different diameter of the racks is new, the diameter amounts to with
vehicles with the engines 12S * and 16*22 mm and with vehicles with the
engines 16S *, 19S * and 19 E* higher front axle load 24 mm.
The sockets in the steering housing were adapted to the two rack diameters.
The steering arms are similar together with the knuckles as one-piece
forgings of heat treatable steel made - as with cadet C. |
