I Have a 2003 CD omega and would like to find out if this mod can be done.
How do you find out if the car is DBW or not?

The 2.5TD BMW lump is DBW, fitted a Cruise Stalk on mine and it worked straight off, not sure if any of the Petrols were through?

All later petrols are:

2.2 Petrol / 2.2 DTi = DBW

2.6 V6 & 3.2 V6 = DBW

Basically any Omega post 2001 is DBW.

Wrong type. That's for a 2.5/3.0 V6 which uses a throttle cable.
A DBW car just requires the correct indictor stalk & a chat with a proper Tech II.  :y

Now got everything working, so i'm happy :)

Rather suprised that the persons on the service desk at my local main dealer didn't know that this was possible.

Took about 10 minutes to convince them that it was  ::)

my main dealer tried to convince me that my corsa (no sniggering please) was designed to pull to the near side and that they all suffered n/s tyre wear because of that . they've gone bust now.......
