Omega General Help / Re: models and options...

esc? esp? whatever it is. it is just another thing to fail and annoy with another warning light, and cost money to put right.
anyway if this optional extra is ever put into use on the vehicle it just shows it is not being driven properly

be nice with that engine mate cos its been nursed like a baby. it never done more than 3000 between service and in return never drinks oil apart from the usual weep from rocker cover gasket. if it runs in that car like it did my old car then you will get 40+mpg just knocking about.

allways treat the parts you dont see. my old 14year old car had 13years of myself and my fathers polishing but the crossmembers killed it from the inside out just like cancer. and it isn't just wet weather and salty roads that rust our cars its temperature change causing condensation to rise up to the door top window seals and into those ANNOYING STEELS STRIPS BEHIND THE PLASTIC DOOR TRIMS

an area that retired my old miggy was rusty front jacking point crossmember. you cant see it rusting from inside outwards. it taught me a lesson to waxoil all the little bits you cant see, so if there is a hole squirt it.

they last really well and when i check them i let all air out and then check the bounce just to be sure they ok and not just depending on the airbag. run them at 2bar normally 3ish when full of family and their junk  and between 3.5-4 when heavy towing.
