Compatible with OPEL vehicles; use the vehicle selector above to confirm exact fitment for your make, model, and engine variant. Fitment data is sourced from TecDoc, the authoritative European parts catalogue. This part supersedes original equipment references: 0882014, 10062, 12 08 045, 12 08 057 and 17 more. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function.

Replacing worn components on schedule preserves your vehicle's safety, reliability, and resale value — and aftermarket parts from established brands deliver OEM-equivalent performance at a fraction of the dealer price.
