Omega General Help / Pre facelift rattley/squeaky door cards

« on: 29 November 2020, 19:36:45 »

Hi all,

Since I’ve put on the B4’s & Eibach’s the squeaks from the interior door panels & rear shelf have got quite annoying.... How has this been sorted in the past? Self tappers?

Cheers

Jamie

Hi all,

I’ve just figured out how to host pictures so I’m going to try post them up, please bare with me

I bought my Omega for the 2nd time on the 14th June this year, I previously owned it from October’18 to March ‘19 when I was forced to sell under duress to buy my wife a new family wagon.

Here she is the day I picked her up.

And she’s very clean underneath.

The 1st thing I did after putting my plate on was change the wheels for the Saab Hammerheads I’d bought for my old Vectra, I liked the way they looked but they’re too narrow for my needs (7x17 et49 225/45/17 tyres)

Then I started gathering parts for the suspension overhaul I have planned & thought the wheels off the family wagon would look good on the Omega so bought some adapters.

Going to put 255/35/19’s on the rear to fill the arch properly.

She’s booked in to the body shop to have a couple of bits of rust sorted & the front bumper/bonnet painted at the end of September, then I’ve got a black interior to fit & the suspension overhaul before I get onto the performance mods.

Thanks for looking

Hi Everyone!

I’ve just bought my Omega back that I sold 18months ago.

It’s a 2000 mfl 2.5 saloon in green with a 5spd box & only 89k on the clock.

It needs some TLC as the interior has been bodged but I’m looking forward to the journey of getting it how I want it. Be prepared for quite a few questions

Cheers

Omega General Help / Poly bushes

Morning all.

I’m planning on a full suspension re fresh in the new year and am wanting to poly bush the car. What are the recommendations for this?

Cheers

Evening all.

I’ll start a thread here for my new to me Omega (as it will help me keep all the photos in one place)

I picked her up on Monday & paid the grand total of £600 for her, last owner for 11yrs & full service history (stamps anyway with cam belt changed in April this year)

There’s a few things that need sorting but nothing major.

Couple of tiny rust patches

Laquer peel on front bumper

Plus:
Passenger mirror doesn’t work.
The passenger side of the climate control temp gauge lcd doesn’t work.
Sunroof doesn’t work.
But other than that it’s all good

Hi Everyone.

My name is Jamie & I’ve just bought a 2000 pfl 2.5 manual saloon.
Just over 77,000 miles, velvet green & really good condition.

I’ll post some pictures once I figure out how to do this from my phone & will probably have many questions once I start playing with it.

Cheers
