Omega General Help / Re: Dtc u2100 and 2108
« on: 30 May 2025, 14:01:08 »


Now about to look up codes currently, but what codes are in the gearbox and abs ecus?


None, only those DTCs appear. It's manual
Is your reader capable of reading ABS, or is it only a generic OBDII reader?

Drove it to Guildford and back, now got a sore throat from calling many other drivers some unique names. Mostly Merc drivers, obviously, but the odd JLR and the obligatory Pug and Honda idiots.

 :o :o :o ::)
Every other car in these parts are Mercs, and all driven like a noughties bow....

………
As for the Colonel's secret recipe of 11 herbs and spices, I am quite partial when it comes to roadside fast food given the other options ………

Just avoid the one in Bicester, it is unbelievably shite.
The one just up from the train station, on the way to what was until last week Bicester Motion?  That's generally called the food poisoning place by many locals....

I have no idea where you lot are buying your Beanz, but mine are always spot on.

not sure how it compares but mine runs at 2.5 g/s although its a 2.6
g/s x 60 x 60 / 1000 = kg/hr

So in your case, that's 9kg/hr which is slightly on the low side of OK - a 2.5/2.6 is usually around 10-12 with a/c off

Maybe change to "Who Have You P*ssed Off Today" ::)
If a person pisses you off, they naturally become an it.  Thus the title is correct ;)

Takes me months to decent what bits to use, and days to solder them up and configure the firmwares ;D

I'd be no good in a modern conflict ;D

Live data it. Are the trims bad on both banks?  In particular, are the LTFT's moving off 0%.  If just on one bank, look for air leaks only impacting that, on both intake and exhaust, but also don't rule out the primary O2 sensors itself on that bank. If both banks, look for leaks that impact both banks, or MAF.

MAF at idle should be around 12-13kg/hr for a 3.0/3.2 with A/C off. Add around 1kg/hr if your A/C still works and is on.

General Car Chat / Re: washer non return valve
« on: 21 May 2025, 12:25:04 »
On the XE, from memory, there is a valve with a spring in which should shut off the feed to the headlight  washers unless there is pump pressure (so its a check valve), its part of the T-piece part.

I know some have used a VW part to replace it with (281955187).

Maybe a good blow through with the air line might dislodge any crap or scale in there.
I'm guessing that part is too big for my XJ screen wash stuff - the T piece looks to be 5mm in, with 2 x 3.2mm out.

Who, in a large company, actually monitors staff social media? Is it personnel or line managers or a dedicated group? It is an astonishing 23 years since I worked in the UK. Back then I remember I had suspicions about a team member and my manager got his phone calls list and he was “ working” for the competition. No social media back then.
Nowadays it's trivial ;)
