Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: NCDC 2013 Radio Safe

« on: 10 September 2010, 16:12:46 »

The head unit is a NCDC 2013 - they don't use security codes, they are married together so that one cannot work without the other, I'm thinking that somehow the head unit has depaired itself from the CID, any thoughts from anyone on this?

My appologies, thought they were coded.

If the units are like the old units the cd changer and radio have seperate codes.

I believe these are supplied when the car is purchased and are on the car pass.

Dont think it's as simple as a tech 2 sesion with out the codes, someone else may know different though.

Omega General Help / Re: draining fuel tank with tank fitted.

« on: 27 January 2009, 20:40:30 »

I would be tempted to cut the main fuel feed pipe to the engine at a convieniant point.  Then fix a suitable lenth of pipe long enough to feed it to a jerry can.  Maybe just after the fuel filter, or even the fuel filter outlet.

Once the pipe is in the jerry can all you need to do is turn the ignition till the warning lights come on and then that powers up the pump.

I would be tempted to pour 5 litres of fresh petrol in again and then flush a bit more out to clear the pipes before refitting.

Had a look at a picture of my spare rimes in the garage.  they have Pirelli P6000 225/55/16 tyres on.

So been back and had annother play with the calc Hotel21 listed.

It says 275/45/16 tyres are ideatical to the ones above on rotational circumference and 0% difference at 70 mph.

Will these tyres fit with in the arches on standard rims on the Elite.

yes, check what size they currently are first cos i dont know if mine's right for 16s, you can be upto 2.5% out but no more to remain legal. as close to accurate as possible, i think 70.81 is fine, does it give the percentage difference?

Difference is 1.15%

if its a 99 it could be facelift or pre facelift, pre had 16s and facelift had 17s

is yours pre?

16s 255/55/16 (i think?)

17s 235/45/17

If I go to 255/50/16 the speedo at 70 would then read 70.81

Would these tyres fit?

I have the same problem, but managed to get under the hood with some one pressing and lifting the front of the bonnet.

Can the cable be adjusted.
