Had my omega for a week now and loving the sound of the v6. Was thinking of fitting a sports air intake/induction kit to give it a bit more roar, but have seen some threads on here which say its a bad idea. Any thoughts guys??

Omega General Help / Lowering

« on: 29 May 2012, 22:12:23 »

I'm thinking of lowering my omega and just wanted some advice. I'm looking at a set of weitec springs which will give me 30mm but do I need to uprate/change the shocks as well or do the standard shocks work ok. I'm new to this lowering thing so not sure. I've seen loads posts on here but getting mixed messages really. Any help greatly appreciated.

Omega General Help / Dodgy idling/misfire

« on: 26 May 2012, 16:51:53 »

Hey guys,

Im new to this so go easy on me.

Just bought 03 2.6 V6 yesterday. Was going fine when I collected it, had to drive from lincoln back to northern ireland (345) and its starting to sound a bit dodgy. Fine when cold but when warmed up it starts to idle badly and causes the car to vibrate especially at low revs and it sounds like its misfiring. Is it possible the exhaust could be blocked somewhere or is it new coil packs I need?? Car only has 48000 miles and belonged to an old guy who hardly ever drive it. Plus exhaust /emmission light is on now as well.

Any and all help much appreciated.
