Omega Electrical and Audio Help / philips ccrt 700 question.

« on: 12 February 2008, 14:57:20 »

just fodling my new car and realising its got more gadgets than sainsbury's, i found a simcard in the stereo and upon investigation, the car is one bloody great big mobile phone, thru the ice system, it fully works as when i ring out it asks me to top up the card with credit, what i was wondering is are they locked into one network, this one is still BT Cellnet, or can i use another sim.
thanx

Omega General Help / arrgh, ignition key problem with the mig

« on: 02 June 2009, 15:39:21 »

got in it earlier to collect the kids and the key wouldnt turn in the barrel, not even to position one, i am assuming the bvarrel hath collapsed inside wise, i have rung arong various breakers in the area and the only ones available are from an astra, would they fit, if not, what others would fit the omega, its a 99 (s), and are they easy to remove, taking into account the barrel wont turn at all.

Omega General Help / power steering pump of steering rack

« on: 08 April 2009, 21:21:22 »

steering a very stiff and jerky, when the engin is revved it eases, i have arranged for a 2nd hand pump from an oofer, but the mechanic says it could be the rack, surely if it was the rack then the steering would be the same weather the egin was revved or not, some times its worse than other times

« on: 08 March 2009, 15:28:55 »

when revving, it seems ok,  but took the revvs off and this time it was ok, i think the pumps gettin tired as you said, the timing belt was only don last may, including all the tensioners etc, placed a gated kit on it
the rattle is coming from the wheel area i think although its hard to tell
