Omega General Help / Misfire

« on: 11 August 2010, 12:24:00 »

Hi all!
problems regarding '03' 2.2 estate.
constant misfire started about a day or so ago.
not very into mechanics, so could it be:
Plugs, plug covers, coil or what?
plug rubbers do look a bit tired, but thats all I can see!!
Any help greatly received.

Omega General Help / Main beam and wing mirror!

« on: 27 December 2009, 14:58:35 »

Hi
Been on here before asking about better bulbs for main beam ('03' estate) as have HID dipped beam and am looking for a white or whiter main. Fitted '90 %' brighter from Halfords, and to be honest , can't see the difference!
Also, anyone know how to strip the plastics off a wing mirror without breaking the lugs so I can spray them to match my car colour? Got a nice secondhand one from a member on here and don't want to wreck it if I can help it!!

Thanks,

Ed.

Omega General Help / Bit, bobs an tyres!

« on: 10 September 2009, 16:13:17 »

Hi
Wondering if anyone could help me with a couple of daft bits and bobs?
Car is an '03' omega cdx estate. I'm looking for a rear headrest release button (the one that lets the headrest down so you can fold the rear seat) and also, I hope this doesn't sound daft, a letter 'x'. This is off the rear tailgate and has some how been broken!.
A further request is; tyres.
I'm looking for long lasting, quiet tryes. I'm no boy racer and want something that'll give me a quiet ride and loads of mileage!! Anybody got any answers or experience!?

Thanks,

Ed.

Hi
Hope these don't sound like daft requests, but here we go!
My car : '03' Omega estate 2.2 CDX

Wanted:  1/ 'X' from vauxhall  badge on tailgate          (must've lost mine in a carwash. Tried other scrap vauxhalls, but wrong size)
              2/Push button for rear headrest fold (dark grey/drivers side)

Request: HID lights. Seen a lot of stuff about them. Mine has HID dip only with nornal bulbs on main beam. Not sure if I can fit HID as a mainbeam conversion as i've seen so many conflicting stories. Anyone actually fitted them? If so, any good!?
Thanks,
