wasn't expecting help that quick. lol. I'm guessing not to be undertaken by the faint hearted then. Any more details or info on doing the actual job. Anything need to be cautious of when removing dash, air bags e.t.c. Any tips?
Different subject, LPG conversion?  How much would you expect to pay and is it worth it?

Omega General Help / Got a couple of problems.

« on: 01 January 2009, 21:15:34 »

I think the heater matrix has given up the ghost, Driving along one evening on an unlit B road get a hissing sound & a pop and the car fills with steam, that was nearly the end. But thank goodness both the Elite and I are still here. Not much fun having no heating or de-misting ability in -5 wether conditions at 6 am. Think I have found a new matrix on http://www.carcooling.co.uk all inclusive price with delivery is £55.85, Can anyone tell me if thats about right? Next question well more of an assumption - taking the dash out and fitting the new matrix??
Scale of 1 - 10 (1 being changing a tyre and 10 complete engine rebuild) How difficult is it to change?
Next problem, Think I have a couple of dodgy tappits, very tappy sounds suspect?
Drivers heated seat not working either?
Any help would be very greatfull. Si

Hello. I hope you have all had a good X-Mas and New Year. I have had a great one, have been given an omega 3L v6 by my step dad which I have been borrowing whilest my own car has been off the road awaiting money to give it full service and few minor bits of MOT prep. So in the borrowing time I have come across a few problems hence along with being given it why I have logged on. Si

Really need to get rid now folks, A.S.A.P.
Finally after lots of messing about and waiting for parts and finding the time to do the work. My replacement car is now ready and no way can I afford to keep both unfortuneately.

 

Will consider sensible offers hoping around the £200 mark or there abouts. Have come to realise having seen what else is out there and other prices. Got a box full of bits still to throw in including spare rear light clusters, toe bar with wiring, main switche for head lights and other dash and centre console switches, e.t.c.

I'm not getting much interest as the car stands so am thinking more about breaking her. What parts would people be interested in if I was to break her and how much would people be looking to pay for these parts?

I haven't really thought about breaking her cos I think she is still in good nick but I do have the room to break her but there seems to be so many parts and bits n pieces up for grabs and I don't really want bits sitting around cluttering up the garage for months on end. If there is enough interest I would think about breaking her for spares.
