Yes, but they need putting back to BC.

They don't believe in Christ.  ;)

Thar do lad. Local and reasonably priced. You'll not miss it long ;)

7 Seats is a pretty rare option no? Although I'm not sure how useful the third row is, unless your aim is to make young children and midgets vomit in the boot of your car.  :D

Took a Yeti full of rubbish from my unit to the skips, lots of cardboard from new parts for the Austin. I can now open the other door without a landslide! Front wheels in car as well to get balanced when I pick up the rear wheels with new boots on today. Not long now before shakedown runs, bleed the brakes again with only some minute bubbles from front caliper and suspect that was being sucked in around nipple threads. Brake solid but goes quite soft with servo, normal for Omega?

Yeah, very normal. There is an adjuster under the normal brake pedal that can take some of the slack out but it's the way they're designed.

Assuming fluid level is correct, at that stage in the UK, we'd replace the box - but spare parts from breakers are cheap here.

If you read the codes in the transmission, are you seeing a P0730 Incorrect Ratio?

i dont have a dedicated reader, but i checked with a reader from Würth, and it didnt read any fault codes, imma see on my closest auto shop that spesialize in opels and see what they have and if they can check for fault codes, but thats a 4h drive, about 250-300 ish km, so its not somthing i do any day, and espesialy not in the condition the car is in at the moment, its not in bad condition just atm need a anti roll bar link, and a new set of tyres

edit: i checked for a gearbox that i can get my hands on, theres one for sale thats relativly close, its in a junkyard, but its also about a 5h drive, around 350-400km, but i honestly think id rather rebuild the transmition than buy a new one, yes its more difficult but a valuble lesson

He is an inarticulate ignoramous, but his general direction of travel on most issues is the right one.

The Mondeo catastrophically failed it's MOT today.  :(   The End.  ;(
What's killed it? Rust?

Actually that wasn't strictly true, it did fail, knackered front discs and rear arm bushes mainly, and advisories for corroded subframes front and rear, corroded rear arms, and corroded rear springs. He said the subframes had about a year in them.  :-\

What's really done for it though, is a failing dual mass flywheel which accounts for the stiff gear change and vibrations.  :(  The End.  ;(

I was emotional when I posted the MOT fail!  ;D

Upsetting maybe, but time for a new car exciting times ahead treat yourself to something you've always wanted 🚗🚗🚗
