New nipples needed.
What size are they. Rears virtually corroded away. Will a screw extraction tool  get them out?

Omega General Help / oil change. Very low miles.

We have done less than 1000 miles this year since the last oil change. Do I need to do it again or will it be ok for another year.

Omega General Help / a couple of questions

« on: 19 October 2012, 21:46:52 »

Handbrake backplates, about how much and are they vx only?

One front wheel appears to be further back than the other. The wishbones were done a couple of years back (about 3000m ago). It feels like its crabbing slightly and does pull left. Is it likely that something to do with the bones has moved?

thanks
Dave

Omega General Help / warning lights on

« on: 18 July 2012, 18:28:47 »

Battery flat  this morning. Jump started this afternoon. Driven for about 10 miiles. Tried to turn it off (keys out ), the engine kept running. So I stalled it took the keys out and the warning lights stayed on.  I have disconnected the battery.
Is it likely to be:  alarm sounder, alternator or a short somewhere else.
Any ideas. ( 1997 2.5 petrol cd.)
Thanks in advance.

Omega General Help / tc and abs lights on intermitently

« on: 30 September 2011, 21:09:41 »

Hi All.
What is the most likely cause? Sometimes they come on when going over a bump in the road or even under acceleration.
Loose connection feels the thing, but where?
