Title: X30XE Engine number.
Post by: MV6Man on 06 May 2008, 14:12:45

Asked my local parts dealer for full cambelt set.
He wanted to know that engine number because it changes in MY98.
So where´s it located?
I have that longer plenum, but he said that it´s not always original...

I thought that i´ll change waterpump and auxiliary belt too, is there anything else to change at same time.??

On my facelift 2000 2.5 V6 it is on the left hand side of the engine on the crankcase. :y  

According to Vx this is true of all Omega's at least of the facelift variety, and if I remember correctly was on my 1996 3.0 Elite.  :y
