Omega General Help / Re: **LOCKED KEYS IN BOOT!!**

« on: 25 July 2009, 22:41:35 »

I did this once on a BMW, I was very lucky to find a really good breakdown company that sent someone who priced part of thw wire loom out and fed a current to the boot release wire. Took a few hours but great job! I had already broken a window to find out that deadlocked, means deadlocked!

Offered a lovely 35,000 mile reflection, but it needs both sides painting to repair the rust and a few scratches. Question is, does anyone in East Anglia area know of a good bodyshop that wont break my piggy bank. Know idea of the cost, but Im sure its

Just had a look, it seems the pipe comeing down from the radiator and heading under the air box is corroded at the pioint where it goes into rubber section, its then collecting under what I think are A/C hoses that sit in a gully sectionunder the air box. Still dont know if coolant or power steeting or.... using Vx fluids by the way. Its more oily than water, its stains the road, but is red when you wipe it up with a white cloth? Need to do 300 miles tomorrow (mainly M25 traffic), just trying to work out if I can

Over the last few days when I park up, I come out to find a watery like red stain on the road, its dripping down from the front drivers side, off the front valance on my MV6, looks like power steering fluid, but the levels are fine. I can see most of it under the air box by the air con pipes and a bit splatered on the side of the airbox :-?. Any ideas?
