Has anybody tried/owned a V6 Signum Elite. ?
Friend of mine is considering getting an 06 plate and would appreciate any advise or areas to be to aware of
-
Henryd has one, he is quite chuffed with it.
V6 petrol or diesel?
-
He was looking at a 3.2 automatic petrol engine with full Irmscher kit .
Pictures looked nice but unsure how it would shape up to his Omega

Didn't the auto gearbox fill with water due to a duff gearbox oil cooler on them ::)
-
Chuffed with my V6 3.0 diesel Elite auto,goes very well and averages 34mpg driving around down here in cornwallshire,gets up to about 38 on a good run and thats not driving with economy in mind,not quite as good a ride as the Omega was but has most of the toys :y :y

Earlier Vectra C's/Signums did have a problem with their gearboxes, EP is right, they were sorted on later models as Tunnie said :y.
I'm pretty sure there was recall for the problem too, could be wrong though.

I ought to check if mine was one of them as its an 04 ::)

Yes I read that the water went into the 6 speed auto box too from cooler failure.
Looks a nice car though and with the Irmscher kit on sets it apart.

My old man had a 2.0 Turbo one with Irmscher kit, they do look well :y

Last shape astras had the same issue,
this time caused by a rad letting go and coolant going into the auto box. ::)

Its a Vectra-C (which all the problems that brings) with less seats. :P
