Omega General Help / Electric rear blind.
« on: 23 November 2020, 21:42:49 »
Wasn’t sure which group to post this in, apologies if this is the incorrect one.

My rear blind has recently given up the ghost, was working perfectly albeit a little floppy when erect (keep it clean) but recently it stopped going up and down completely although upon depressing the button I can hear a clicking noise coming from the rear shelf area.

Having had a little search all I can find is a thread on how to remove the rear blind but ideally I’m looking for any ideas as to why it may have stopped working and why it used to bounce up and down? The previous owner had fitted a little strap to the trim panel that hides access to the roof aerial and fixed the blind to that so it would wouldn’t bounce around.

Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / Metal Cam Covers
« on: 19 November 2020, 22:28:23 »
As per title... Anyone got a pair laying around gathering dust?

Having my cam cover gaskets and seals done soon using all genuine items so I thought I’d take the opportunity to change the cam covers from the plastic to the metal ones at the same time

4 X G Cams, Widened Throttle Bodies and a Remap (Re Chip, Coutenaey or SuperChip) all work well together on the 3.0.

Can't vouch for the 3.2 Downpipes as never got around to that one, but a Free,Dr Flowing Exhaust System (doesn't need to be loud) also works well with the above.

If you get stuck on the Cams probably got a set kicking around but please use me as an last resort as just got too much crap going on at the moment and probably won't have a chance to search for them this side of Xmas.

Hi Chris, hope you’re well mate! I’m pretty sure the 3.0 has G cams on the inlet side already, I’d  just be looking to do the swap on the exhaust side... A possible remap as well but like most things I only really want to do the basics  :D

Car will be going into Serek at SOS Automotive to have all the work done in the next couple of weeks hopefully so if you do come across the cams then gimme a shout matey!

Drop serek a pm, he might have some.

Strangely enough the reason I’m after some as I’m currently building up a bit of a new parts collection as the car is going to him for a bit of an overhaul :y


 If your going down that route, then 3.2 manifolds, be a good fitment.

True but that’s a whole lot more than I wanna do tbh  :-\ I figured as the rocker covers would be coming off to replace all the gaskets as they are leaking and cam belt/auxiliary belt would be being done at the same time I thought maybe slipping in a couple of G cams wouldn’t take much longer

Would anyone happen to have any of these bushes laying around? I know there was a group buy quite a few years ago now which I was part of when I initially owned my first Omega...

Wondering if anyone bought a set I never got around to fitting them? I have messaged Pedders via PM on here but he hasn’t been online since 2014! 😂

Omega General Help / Is this still a thing...?
« on: 20 October 2020, 03:03:31 »
Way back when I had my first Omega (an ex-white TVP estate) there were meets for software updates and cambelt fitting sessions! I’m now on my 5th or 6th Omega and I feel a Tech2 session could be worthwhile, especially for any possible software updates!

Do the same people do the Tech2 stuff? I’m pretty sure I met Kevin Wood (?) in a car park at some hotel somewhere for a session.  :D ;D When I had an Omega I bought off an OOF member from Biggleswade?  ???

I do have access to a Tech2 machine and it’s owner is fairly knowledgeable but mainly with the Vectra generation of cars, I tend to use "My Naff Code Reader" where I can for the basic stuff.

Everything & everyone in this link still here and doing business? http://theboy.omegaowners.com/tech2/prices.shtml

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: GPS in Red

All good news then, I know I’m flogging a dead horse as the navi system is so out of date but it would be nice just to get it working nevertheless.

Iirc, for testing purposes you should be able to play a music CD in the nav slot to cheeck it works ok.  :-\
My memory is pretty shit though. ::)

I can confirm that the nav slot plays music cd’s perfectly  :)

I’ll give that a go now  :y

Have bought what can only be a copied set of discs off of eBay - A software update disc and the navi disc, neither seem to work and get ejected straight away.

So I’m after a genuine set of disc/S if possible and as late as possible so at least they’re ‘slightly’ up-to-date!  :D

Thanks!
