Can you not get them from vauxhall?

tell me, does it by any chance sound like the diff is shagged when you are driving up the road?? cos that usually means its the wheel bearings.

diff bearings are huge taper rollers & you can tell if they are loose by the fact that the driveshafts rattle round like a cock in a sock.
they are dead easy to adjust up, as the torque needed is miniscule. but if they are genuinely shot, then try a local bearing supplier. give them the numbers off the bearings, don't try to confuse the issue by saying its an f13 gearbox from a vauxhall etc....
