Omega General Help / Re: Another part NLS
« on: 24 October 2017, 11:55:54 »9148386, the plastic "break on removal" trim clips (10 in total according to the diagram but I have 6 either side on mine) that hold the moulding onto the rear wing are NLS on the Vauxhall system.
They brake when you remove the trim and should be replaced.
I asked my contact at the Opel dealer over here and they are indeed NLS
but he told there are a lot of German dealers who probably should have them.

I am running them now for about 15.000 Km.
Powerflex at the front.
Strongflex at the rear.
No problems so far, not even on the German highways
or the Italian Dolomites.

Omega General Help / Re: 18" Spare
« on: 25 September 2017, 18:43:14 »It's what you have to do on Saabs with the factory big brakes.
A bit difficult with 8J front and 9J rear.
There's someone on ebay selling a set of four 18" 8j et 33
8J won't fit in the spare place in a saloon boot.

Sorry for the delay in replying, I was on holiday with the Omega.
After driving about 5000 Km with this modified idler arm I am still very pleased with it.
Steering is very smooth.
The parts that you need are;
1x washer 36x20x3 mm (stainless steel)
2x SKF 18/20 needle bearing
2x seals 26x18x6 mm
One custom made washer (nut side)
The inside of the tube is about 25,5 mm and need to be 26 mm (outside size of the bearing).
So you need to go to a machinery workshop to fit the bearings and the custom made washer or do it at home or work if you have the proper equipment.

Omega General Help / Modified the steering idle arm
« on: 20 July 2017, 13:06:57 »
Don't want to buy every year a new steering idle arm.
So I modified the steering idle arm, no more play, no more rubber, no more MOT issues I hope.
Two needle bearings and two seal and a lot of grease.

Do not know how long it holds, it is only a few weeks since it is on the Omega.
