I have got so used to our Omega running like a tractor and being gutless despite endless months of  fruitless efforts to track down the cause. No paperclip codes.

So imagine my surprise when it started working "properly" again after I replaced the rear discs, pads and handbreak shoes. Must have been the action of jacking the back end up that has "cleared" the problem.

Actually I think it is a blocked Cat and am buying two off a forum member so it will be good to see if it clears the problem up permanently! I can hear the ceramic bit loose in the RH side Cat. (not the heatshield). Maybe the jacking up freed it a bit.

I don't know how strict the Spanish version of the MOT is but I would take the cats off and removed the innards to see how it runs then

Last MOT (called ITV here) was a bit marginal. Probably helped through by having had a thirty mile run immediately prior to going in.

The mechanical noise of the gizzards rattling around is getting to me now so I need to change them. Never thought of taking the insides out altogether!
