Omega General Help / Re: Lowering Springs - Help?

« on: 10 July 2009, 22:43:06 »

If it is for racing then I would certainly consider changing all possible bushes for the poly type (Powerflex or Superflex).

How about uprating the ARB and putting a strut brace in whily you are at it? Whiteline seem to do a good line in these for the Holdens...

I have the poly bushes on my trackday MV6 as i have allways used them on my RS Cosworth and swear bt them to be honest

Personally i use 10/40 semi synthetic in mine and currently change this every 2500 miles mainly due to the car being used for short trips.

Omega General Help / Re: Engine/box Change Issue

« on: 11 June 2009, 19:43:27 »

So you now have a stressed AR25 fitted or an AR35 with unknown history fitted?

The ECU's are the same for both engine types by the way

Changed the oil in the gearbox (AR35)today and had the ecu updated on tech 2 and it is now 100%....

Omega General Help / Engine/box Change Issue

« on: 10 June 2009, 22:26:48 »

When i had my Omega converted from 2.5 to 3.0 the person who done this used the Gearbox ECU from the 2.5 hence it still has a AR25 ECU.

I had an issue where i kept getting Gearbox fault coming up so decided to have it checked out and was told it should of have had the proper AR35 ECU fitted at the time of the conversion.

So can anyone clarify this ??

I have 2 AR35 ECU'S sitting around so no issues there just want to know

The gearbox fault has not appeared for over a week now by the way.....

No problem mate...

Fully open the sunroof and in the two front corners there are two holes, i just got a piece of wire and unblocked them

Mine was causing the alarm to go off and at 03.00 it's not good

I had a simular problem with mine, only it was the drain hole in the Sunroof causing a wet soggy rear footwell and only a 2 min job to rectify.

After recently purchasing a Preface MV6 3.0 Manual, i have noticed a wheel wobble at around 65mph and also uneven wear on the rear tyres...

I have heard there is a specialist close to me near chesham somewhere i believe, so if anyone has their contact details please let me know

Thanks
