Was earlier hunting through Vauxhall breakers, looking down Omega list on MegaVaux' site, and saw this:

Never heard of the 'Sport' model...looks MV6 specced but with the 2.2 petrol engine...could be a nice project or breaker for someone.

Karting is wicked, and made even more fun if you get chance to get out on the track alone...belting round without having to worry about ploughing i to anyone 
Sadly the last time i went Karting, (although great fun) the race suit was too tight, was wet inside and stank - like baby sick!

225 is the width in mm's...the side profile number is a percentage measurement of the tyre width...so '60' in this instance is 60% of 225mm.
Be OK to fit them id say...wont do any harm i shouldnt have thought, not something id do though.

Seen Vectra B SRi wheels on an Omega and it looks terrible, way-out offset meant it looked like one of them old Comma vans...with the wheels about a foot in from the bodywork.

Yeah i noticed that too...they used to feature nearly all the old models, going back to the Nova...now its current models only!
Just goes to show the low level of customer commitment Vauxhall actually has...and judging by my local Vauxhall dealer, its virtually non-existent!

The problems relating to the timing chain lubrication occurred on the petrol engines and that engine was not used in the Omega
erm, it was...the 2.2 16v petrol replaced the 2.0 16v.

You get very little trouble with the 2.2 diesel, pretty easy to chip to.....
Only thing that daunted me really was the timing chain issue...wasn't there some problem with a lubrication valve or something?, or was that the 2.2 Petrol's?
Had been looking at chips etc for a while as i was looking to buy a 2.2 DTi Vec C...and had seen one that allegedly boosted power to about 155bhp and 300lbft torque...there are soo many about now-a-days, not sure who would be the best...mind you, i want to get the service and bodywork sorted before i start expenditure such as that.
What engine is in these Meg's...Y22DTH?

Hello people
Im sure some of you will recognise the name off VxON, so hello to those that know me, and also hello to those that dont
As of Friday i joined your clan...yes thats right, i am now the owner of an Omega...i still have the Calibra but its for sale, will sadden me deeply to see it go, but i love the Omega to bits.
Its a 2000 X plate 2.2 DTi CD 4dr manual, in Nocturno Blue...i previous owner, 64k, with FSH...need's a few bits on the bodywork tidying but nowt massive i shouldnt wonder...pics will be following shortly.
Mods started already...ive whipped the '2.2 DTi' badges off the back and the 'CD' badges off both front doors
I'm totally new to the Omega so will be asking all bloody sorts likely
So, i'll be about a bit
