The transponders are still in both keys. No code readers, and the box have just wiggled the box under the column.
Its almost as if the ecu has wiped the keys from it, somehow...

Hey Guys.
Flattened the battery while parked up, now with jump leads she turns over but wont fire.
The spanner is flashing, have tried both keys, lock unlock etc. No joy. Car is stranded 2 miles from the house.
Help!

Omega General Help / Upgraded Suspension
« on: 05 December 2013, 12:18:38 »
For those that may be interested, one of my rear shocks had seized. Didnt fancy the stealers prices so have fitted bilstein b4 all round, with standard killen springs on the front and heavy duty killens on the rear to help with the towbar and lpg tank.
The handling is transformed, each to their own but i fully recommend it to anyone who is considering upgrading. The mot station said it failed on two front bushes and they had to fit new wishbones, at £70 each plus labour. (which with two tyre fittings came to £200 labour alone) I argued and told them to press new ones in as i didnt want pattern wbs. They said the labour would be more, so i gave in in the end but very dubious about this. Hmmm. But hey the car is riding great!

I must admit i suspect the pump, stealers want £177 tho so wont be having a gen item.
If the relay is pulled the fuse doesnt blow...

Omega General Help / Elite Suspension
« on: 25 September 2013, 21:07:07 »
Evening. I would like to upgrade the Elite suspension (facelift 3.2) for something a bit stiffer.
I know this prob gets asked a lot but i dont want to use Mv6 bits and end up lowering the car, as it has a Lpg tank in the boot and a towbar.
Mv6 performance would be great but at the Elite height! I am happy with the Vaux self levellers but not a problem if i have to lose them, and i dont really want Monroe self level.
Do Vaux do heavy duty Shocks/springs?
Any Ideas?

Ok thanks guys, The modulator is ok, just not great and i find it it gets in the way.
In hindsight i preferred the ccrt unit with a tapedeck adaptor for mp3, used it for years and it was great. Somedays i actually prefer my prefacelift car... Yes i am serious!!
Should have kept them both!

Hey Guys.
I dont want to open a can of worms, however: i accept that i cant play cdr's in a 2015 unit, and i realise why i cant, i know it has to be a gen cd, but what i would like to know is what do you all use instead?
I cant wire mp3 or ipod i believe, and I wouldnt want to replace the head unit as i like the phone, and i know that i would have to rewire half the car as its a bose system, so am using a fm modulator for now but am not a huge fan of it.
Is there a better way?
