Omega General Help / Kyb front springs questions
« on: 06 October 2022, 21:37:56 »
Just got a new set of kyb front springs. According to the kyb site the longer spring (RC1540) is fitted to the left (passenger side) but on another post on this site it says that the longer spring is right (drivers side).
Please can anyone give me the correct fitting before I pay someone to fit them.
Thanks.

Omega General Help / Wanted urgent, V6 coolent transfer pipe
« on: 29 January 2022, 14:16:18 »
I know I should have expected it to happen, but as it was off only a few months ago, I thought it would be OK.
Changing thermostat and the transfer pipe has broken.

Hoping someone can help me out as the only ones I can find are in the USA, with at least a month delivery.

The car is my every day transport so need it fixing asap.
Thanks for any help.

Omega General Help / Problem with my V6 timing.
« on: 28 April 2021, 20:46:21 »
A few weeks ago, I started up my Manta (2.5 V6) to move it out of the garage, she started fine but after about a minute it suddenly started to make a very loud  awfull tapping sound.
Tonight I started to investigate what has gone wrong. First thing was to look down the plug holes and see if there was any marks on the pistons, all looks fine. So he next step was to check the timing,  and I think I may have found the problem. Not sure how, but it looks like the timing belt has jumped a few teeth.
With the crank set to tdc, all 4 cams are out of alignment.  Cams 1 & 2 by 3 teeth,  can 3 by 1 Thoth and Cam 4 by 2 teeth. And yet all the tentioners look fine, and the belt is tort.

Any one else ever had this happen? Or can suggest how it has happen.

Omega General Help / Sill protector removal
« on: 30 March 2020, 00:26:18 »
I need to remove the sill cover on my fl omega to do a bit of welding to the sill.

Now I know that I am going to need new clips in order to re-fit it, so my question is, does anybody know the part number and if they are still available.

Thanks.

General Discussion Area / MOT pass for another year.
« on: 21 March 2020, 20:57:24 »
Well, what can I say, took the Omega in for its MOT this morning and to my surprise, it passed.  :D

Did get an advisory for both front tyres, which I was expecting, and a small bit of rust on the rear of the d/s sill. But when you consider that the car is 18 years old and never had any welding work, I think she has done quite well.

Only paid £200 for her 3 years ago and she has passed her MOT every year with no issues to talk about and now has over 150000 miles under her belt.

Don't think I have any grounds to complain.  :y

General Discussion Area / The pain of moving house
« on: 08 March 2020, 22:15:06 »
Have spent the last month trying to clear and pack the garage away ready for moving house, what a nightmare. 20 Years of crap to sort through and 5 runs to the tip so far with more to come.
Anyway while sorting through I have found 2 Omega items that might be of interest to fellow owners.
Saloon rear panel, Gen GM old stock.
PFL front grill infill
Free to anyone who can collect from Coventry ASAP before they go down the tip.

Omega General Help / CCRT2008 radio lights
« on: 05 January 2020, 00:26:46 »
Has anyone know if it is possible to replace the light /lights in the CCRT2008 head unit.

Mine has stopped working, but when I had a look they look like small LEDs and not a bulb as I was hoping.

Or even better is there anyone who could repair it for me. :y
