Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / TD water pump
« on: 13 June 2010, 21:38:59 »
Got a water pump for the TD engine.
Removed from a 2000 year facelift.
Perfect working order when removed, impellor all intact, no cracks. It was only replaced as a precaution when I had my stat replaced.
Free to a good home, if you want a spare, seems a shame to bin it
Just pay P & P or collect, I'm in Derby.

Cars for Sale & wanted / Facelift TD Estate
« on: 21 July 2010, 20:01:21 »
Up for sale my very reliable 2000 ‘W’ plate Omega 2.5TD estate, CD spec, manual gearbox.
I’m downsizing as I now don’t need this big estate, I’ll be sorry to see it go.
I’m sure someone wanted a TD estate recently and have PM’d a member who showed an interest, but had no reply. I think they are on holiday, so apologies if you miss this.
The details….
10 months MOT
3 months tax
120,000 miles
Full mainly Vauxhall service history up to 107,000, then self serviced to date.
It’s had plenty of oil/filter changes in between scheduled service intervals especially in my ownership.
The last oil/filter change was around 2k ago when it was also treated to a new fuel filter, pollen filter and air filter.
Also rear brake overhaul and proper handbrake adjustment.
Passed the last MOT (May) with no advisories.
New front discs and pads fitted around 12k ago (genuine GM parts) also new water pump and thermostat (genuine BMW parts) fitted along with air con belt.
Above work carried out by the then famous duo of Daz and Pete, so all done correctly.
It’s also had fitted new glow plugs at around 95k (again quality parts) and a complete set of tyres, these still have good tread left (spare is still new original)
Also I had the ECU board socketed to have it re chipped. This was done but I have since removed the chip and replaced it back to standard. You can of course easily get it chipped again.
All of course usual CD spec with the additions of cruise control (new stalk) and CCR2006 4 disc changer unit, full working order.
Everything works as it should including heated front seats (well they were last time I used them)
Interior in excellent condition, over mats always used on the very clean carpets, full working dash and display. Rear load area in pristine condition, always used a rubber boot tray for protection.
Exterior in very good condition apart from a few imperfections (mainly little knocks and dings) they really don’t show up much on the black finish but need mentioning.
So all in all not a bad looking very good condition estate, don’t forget it’s 10 years old but plenty of life left in it.
Also fitted is a tow bar with twin electrics.
Couple of negatives (there always is) but easily fixed, and I would if I was keeping it.
1…The windscreen has started to delaminate in the bottom corners, has been like this for the last two years, not an MOT failure!
2…. Again if I was keeping I would have the air con regassed, but it is fully working but not icy cold.
Also just noticed the wiper blades need replacing, since I returned from holiday I’ve not had time to do them, so will get them sorted.
I’ve recently done a trip up to Northumberland and she returned an average 44mpg.
Around town I get low 30’s, engine runs sweet throws out very little smoke from the exhaust.
Anything I’ve missed out just PM me for more details, pics etc.
I want £1500 ono
If no interest I will part exchange it as I’ve put a deposit down on a replacement car, and they will take it off me.
Any interest please contact me, but I can’t reply after 9.30pm weekdays as I will be away from the PC. I will of course reply the next day
Cheers
Mick

Omega Gallery / Omega replacement.
« on: 15 August 2010, 11:46:50 »
Don't think so, but I liked it so bought it.
It was supposed to have been the replacement for the Omega model by Vx, so they say, but didn't catch on. Yes it's FWD so never would!
My TD estate is about to disappear shortly, been sold.
The Signum well, it don't half shift and very frugal on the old juice (diesel), but boy those seats are hard compared to the Omega. It's like sitting on a park bench compared to sitting in armchairs in the estate.

Omega Gallery / Been out and about.
« on: 31 May 2010, 12:14:04 »
Went on a little jaunt down south, after cleaning the TD estate.
Ended up here and stopped overnight not far away.
Now the estate looks, well in a state after heavy rain and motorway travelling.
We got back from a trip out this time up North to Richmond, North Yorkshire at the weekend.
She's guzzled some diesel over the last 5 days but retuned a very respectable average of 40mpg.
Time for another polish I guess

Omega Gallery / My Pair Of CD's
« on: 22 November 2009, 14:33:11 »
Being as it's stopped raining I thought I would get the camera out and show you my pair of CD's
Had the TD estate now for just over 3 years, can't bear to part with it. Bought the 2.2 saloon just over 2 weeks ago, and so far all is good.

General Car Chat / Cat D car and insurance?
« on: 05 November 2010, 21:35:29 »
Would a cat D car be difficult to insure?
Thinking of buying one, not Omega, which has had very little damage.
Apart from looking for obvious damage what should I be wary of re paperwork, insurance V5 etc.

General Car Chat / Very hot brake discs.
« on: 29 October 2010, 19:29:40 »
Knew I shouldn't have sold the Omega!
Anyway for my sins I now have a Signum CDTi, and it seems to have a problem, I think with the brakes.
All of the discs get very hot after a short journey, say around 3 miles. Infact I did a journey of only 1 mile today and they were very hot, and I didn't do any heavy braking either. They are getting so hot that one in particular OSR discs I can smell burning.
What can be wrong?
After a long journey, about a month ago they never got anywhere near as hot as this, because I tried them, as i do every now and then just to make sure nothing binding.
