Omega General Help / Re: Omega V6 downpipe gasket

You'll have to dig with the part number. Chances are that the number has changed and it's showing as NLS on their system but they CBA to do some basic research.

Obviously the media will be only too happy to help if only reinforce the misguided notion that the right are a bunch of capitalist bigots.

« on: 26 February 2024, 13:34:14 »I was answering Ronny's point. Where the OP is is largely irrelevant but buying a Catera this side of the pond would be somewhat alerternative.People don't always change it when they move and I chose not to presumeIf you're in Europe, then it's basically a rebadged Omega and should be treated as such.As his profile says Lithuania, if he waits a year or two he might manage a Zil.
If you're in the US and miss your Omega then yes, buy it.
As he has only registered on OOF 3 days ago, he is hardly likely to get his location wrong, and have moved in that time......

Only because they're cheap.
I wouldn't buy one with your money, let alone mine.

A Catera in Europe is unlikely to have had that recall work done as it was a US recall and relates to ridiculous belt intervals. Change the belt kit every 4 years/40k miles and they're unlikely to fail.
But that said, if it has been more or less looked after it should have had the belt kit replaced a few times.

« on: 25 February 2024, 18:45:11 »But how about its value ? Its Cadillac..As I said it's basically a rebadged Omega, built in Germany. in Europe it's value is the same as an Omega. And it will have exactly the same issues as an Omega... Because it's an Omega with a Cadillac badge.
I'm interested is it hard to sell in Europe Cadillac.
I also know that those engines do not have a good reputation, even though the car has only driven 130,000 km..
Put it another way... Would you pay more for a Vauxhall Astra than an Opel one?

Would it kill the insurance company to exclude or limit claims for cat thefts? Or body part theft of Festers and Corsas
