Omega General Help / Warning light with Spanner

« on: 17 May 2014, 09:27:00 »

Hi,

on a cold start the warning light with a spanner comes on. Leave it running for few minutes switch off engine and then start again no warning lights. what it could be and how can I diagnose?

Also another problem which seems like auto gear box problem. When pulling off on first gear, its like pulling a heavy truck until it gets to 4th gear. I tried with sports mode it got stuck to 1st gear and started jerking. May be needed an ATF change?

Thanks for your help guys

« on: 04 December 2013, 10:11:30 »

Omega CD 2.2 Auto, Saloon, 2003

hi,

for the last couple of days I m having a cold start problem and then also misfires on first gear at 2500 rpm if accelerated hard while car is at 15-20 mph speed.  I presume it might be due to fuel filter as this hasnt been changed for last 20k miles. Spark plugs have been recently changed less than 1k miles.

Can you please advise.

Omega General Help / Alarm goes off

« on: 08 August 2013, 14:11:30 »

Hi,

I m here with 2 problems but related to same issue

Alarm goes off after an hour as soon I double lock the car with the remote but if I keep it to single it doesn't goes off.

Also, if I double lock the car and open it with the key instead of unlocking it with remote the alarm doesn't goes off and only flashes light.

so Annoying!!!

Can anyone help on this...

Thanks,

Hi,

I spoke to the garage who refilled the gas on the phone he said that there might be a leakage on the air con radiator. is it the case really? Every summer I have to get it refilled and last time I did asked the garage to check whether there is a leakage and they confirmed no leakage. 

Can you guys please help.

Thanks,
