If it kicks off and we start getting beat up by the Ruskies, I want everyone to know that I think Putin is a very nice man

It is a well known fact that Vlad hates all scousers with a passion.

Ten years breaking rocks in Siberia will bring a flush of colour to your cheeks though.

So today it happened.  After driving the car half the day, it suddenly would not re-start after stopping at my daughters.

Called the AA, who arrived after 20 minutes.  A very experienced older chap carried out all the usual initial checks, then connected the diagnostics box, which showed "no fault", but that quickly led him to identify that the crank sensor was not telling the engine it was turning, confirmed by the fact that even when turning the engine the rev counter did not move.

The only sensor he had was for a Corsa, and of course it was now the evening with the main dealer shut!

So I am about to order a new crank sensor, but I have read in another post - https://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=148352.0
 - that you have to be very careful to get the right replacement.  I have noted the part number suggested in the thread for my 3.2, but am I right in thinking that if I give my friendly parts manager the chassis number and engine number I should get the right part?

I note the option to take the part number off the old sensor, but I do not want to get under the car more than twice

Win11 was leaked ages ago, as part of the pre-release closed Betas of what was originally Windows Next.  No matter how many NDAs you et people to agree to, somebody will always want their 5 mins of gaytube fame.


As for H/W compatibility, for the most part, virtually nobody pays to upgrade their OS,

I've purchased genuine retail software 95 ,ME ,XP pro ,Vista ,7 home and pro ,10 home and pro ,many copies /licences plus office software  as do many people . I'm well aware of keygens ,generators etc ,i've purchased computers with windows "activated "  with patches  ,they never stay updated and activated 

and only does so if it automatically upgrades itself.  An OS should be irrelevant to the user.

the O/s is pretty relevant to the user when the O/S is no longer supported  and Bill needs another £140 

if 11 is a free upgrade from 10 then fair enough .we might find out tomorrow

Is it possible he already knows that it needs a shit load of expensive parts to get it through the test.
