Hi guys... as I wrote to newbie section about my luvly car... (anyway sorry about wrong post)
I bought Vauxhall Omega 2.5 EcoTec Elite (full package) and I already have a problem... when i take a ride in city. temperature goes up really fast and hits 100 C then big fan starts and temperature drops to 95 and then again goes to 100 etc etc.... when I stop at red light. Oil lamp start flashing. when I ride again it stops flashing, if I stop it starts again. what could be wrong? sorry guys, I'm not good at engines.... Sad but I really don't want to scrap...that car sorry for not using search... but i'm trying to get replies asap because tomorrow I'm going to mechanic. some said that could be a head gasket. but water from cooling system dont go anywhere.. and it's only 85k mileage.
