Will run the test as soon as poss.
So the orange engine symbol is the emissions light?
Is the red light the EMS then?
Am I ok to drive at the moment? (I know I need to get problem sorted).

Hi there,
I am new to Omega ownage (is that even a word?).
Also a few years back I owned a 99' 2.0 GLS estate, which me and the wife loved and regretted seeling the second she drove off our drive.
I have owned 'Betty' my black 99' 2.0 CD for just 3 days, done aprox 150 miles in her, and am now getting the EMS light on on the dashboard when the car idles. When you pull off, it almost imediatly goes out.
I have contacted her previous owner who went to great pains to tell me he never had the problem, and the car was sold with no warranty.
Consulting the Vauxhall owners manual it says its only an issue if it stays on, is this correct?
I have heard talk of a paper clip test? what is this?
Many thanks
Lee
p.s would have posted in the FAQ section but it wouldnt let me at this time.

Cars for Sale & wanted / Metalic Black 1999 2.0 16v CD for sale.
« on: 31 May 2010, 12:18:42 »
Hi guys,
I am looking to part with my 1999 2.0 16v CD finished in Nova black metalic (I believe) with black velour interior.
It has 10 months MOT and wil have 6 months tax.
I have had the car aprox 2 months and love it to bits, the genuine reason I am selling it is I was going to be taking a job a lot closer to home so fuel would not be to much of an issue (I currently live in Staffordshire and comute to Nottingham), at the eleventh hour my current company in Nottingham came in with an offer I cant refuse, so unfortunatly I now need to move my Mig on and go back to a Diesel dog of some description.
I am having problems with photo bucket and my P.C, so if anyone is interested, PM me with e-mail address and I will e-mail pictures.
She has 3 known faults.
1, The central locking door solenoid is broken, so when the fob is used you have to unlock the drivers door with the key.
2, It has an air bag light on, I am told it is a 'squab' that is at fault (excuse my ignorance if I have got the terminology incorrect)
3, It has an oil leak, which is believed to be from the cam cover gasket - caused by the oil breathers being blocked. The parts for this are about £35 from Vauxhall.
Also on occasion she can have an uneven idle, but this clears itself.
She looks and drives great, with a few marks that you would expect from a car 11 years old.
Loads of receipts including the previous owner having a cam belt fitted on 98K (now done 110K).
I am looking in the region of £700 ono, or consider px for a Diesel car of aprox same size - Pug 406 etc.
Thanks for reading
