I'm going to be doing this in sections as I go so I don't forget bits.
I'm assuming you have the gearbox out of the car already.
This is just a guide to help and I take no responsibility for any mistakes or inaccuracies.
And lastly I'm not going to list every single took you will need but you will need a decent quality 8mm allen key that you can use with a break bar and a torque wrench that is capable of 90nm.
The first thing you need to do is remove the plug covering the end of the intermediate shaft. GM recommend removing this with a slide hammer and a self tapping screw attachment. This didn't work for me and I drove a screw driver through the middle of the plug and carefully levered it out. Remember there is a large sealed bearing behind the plug held in with a big 'c' clip so don't go mad and damage it.
This picture clearly shows the plug in the bell housing that needs to be removed.
And this is the mess you are left with once it is removed.
Disguard the plug and the plastic cap behind it. I will add the part numbers once I have them confirmed tomorrow with AutoVaux.
And this is what you are after, the 8mm allen bolt.
