See Paperclip test in Maint Guides - has links to fault code lists

Obd2 codes from a 2.5? 2000year, mini facelift?

what do you mean Chris - that OBDII is possible or the codes themselves? OBD I thought was on cars from about 1997

would it be worth me buying one of these U480 Diagnostic Scanner CAN OBD2 EOBDII Code Reader NEW have found it on ebay for £23

P0203 Injector Circuit Malfunction - Cylinder 3
P0712 Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit Low Input
P0730 incorrect gear ratio
P0743 Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Electrical
Once cleared then run car and retest. Omniscan can only do a limited job - full Tech II needed for complete job. Is car running ok with no warning lights on?
-
Sorry - are they charging you for code test?
-
they said to wait and see if gearbox goes in to limp mode again then they will have another look have driven car since and doesnt seem to bang into third so far so i just have to wait and see was just wondering if they had cleared the codes last code check cost me £60

I have one of these - recommended by someone on OOF.
Please describe circumstances when gearbox goes into limp mode - does engine rev and appears to be in neutral, and then suddenly engages with a clunk which triggers lmp mode?
-
yes thats what happens but it doesn't happen all the time
-
there are a lot of different theories on this - my personal one is the crank sensor - change this first - if it still continues then go for ATF and gearbox filter change

Obd2 codes from a 2.5? 2000year, mini facelift?
what do you mean obd2 i am new to this :-
Obd2 is the industry standard for fault/trouble codes.
It was applied to the omega at a certain point, which I am vague on. Thought it was late 99 on, but there you go.
Pre obd2 codes are mostly 3diigit, yours gives 4 digit obd2 which is good and makes buying a simple code reader easier I guess, and note, the pedal trick and paper clip test only read engine codes, so you will need a reader to see and clear them from any other ecu including auto box, and at £60 a go at your local garage buying your own makes sense.
Appologies though, my post has distracted from the issue at hand.

The only OBDII Omegas are the 2.2 (petrol and diesel) and the 2.6 and 3.2. No other Omega is OBDII.
So if you have a 2.5, don't bother with a OBDII tool.
Lets start from scratch..... ....what is the problem

Ok, had a feeling this might happen, so as TB says, what wrong with it? What's the symptoms/reason for the code read in the first place?
-
started to bang into third after revving like in nuetral then automatic gearbox check light came on but no signs since codes cleared :y

OK, sounds like a gearbox fault. Assuming the ATF level is right, get a replacement box from one of the breakers here.
If its been doing it for a while, and you've kept using it, don't waste money changing the ATF, go straight for the box change.

has been fine since they cleared codes and topped up atf with about 2 litres how much for another box any ideas ??? :(

So the fault is cured?

yes i think so but not sure as not going to pay until fault occurs again
