Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Numberplate illumination

« on: 16 October 2007, 11:26:04 »

Hello,

I have a problem! Car will not pass MOT due to rear numberplate illumination not working. (How stupid!)

Bulb changed (original looked ok) Fuse changed (original looked fine)

Still nothing.

Any suggestions?

Cheers.

Omega General Help / EGR clean or replace

« on: 09 October 2007, 13:32:50 »

I've read quite a bit on here about cleaning the EGR, so am tempted to give it a go. My question though is, if Vx have run the diagnostic and told me I needed a replacement EGR (which they quoted £330 for

) then is cleaning it going to do anything?

I'm guessing it's still worth a try as Vx would rather charge £330 than clean and put back on? Or does the fault reader give a definitive "you must REPLACE the EGR" ??

Cheers.

Omega General Help / EGR and exhaust

« on: 04 October 2007, 23:24:08 »

Hi there. I've got a few questions arising form stuff I've found out needs to be done.

Firstly I need new centre and rear exhaust parts. Vauxhall quoted me £510 fitted so i ran a mile. Any idea how much this should cost realistically and where is best?

Secondly I have the engine management light coming on intermittantly, which is aparently the EGR valve needing replaced. Again Vx stupid money. Easy to do? Cheaper to buy from where?

Thirdly, I have had the cambelt and waterpump replaced, yet the display still shows "low coolant level". How is this possible? Does it need reset? Should it not take a continuous reading?

Sorry for all the questions! I'm still a newbie to the Omega!

Thanks in anticipation of your help and answers 8-)

Omega General Help / Handbook

« on: 30 September 2007, 13:53:02 »

Hello there. Picked up my new Omega yesterday and I'm liking it very much. Only things wrong - needs a service, and there is no handbook!

I'm sure I was reading a thread the other day where someone said if you register with Vauxhall somehow you can get an online pdf version? Can't find the thread now - anyone knwo anything about this? If not, where's best to get one from?

Cheers.

Hi everyone,

Been lurking for a few days now since I randomly bought an Omega on Ebay. Picking it up Saturday.
