Thanks for the advice guys. Look likes there's no short cut.
The Omega 2.5 diesel has done 230k miles, still going strong so I guess i can't complain if the odd bit drops off!

I didn't get a reply so I will try to clarify.
The plastic bush which allows the gears to select easily has disintegrated, making gear change tricky.
The bush is visible at the bottom of the gear stick, but it seems it can only be changed from underneath the car, and a lot of hassle.
Has anyone any bright ideas?

Omega General Help / Gear lever help needed

« on: 25 April 2010, 08:36:55 »

The small plastic guide, size of a penny, where the gear stick joins the gear box has disintegrated making it difficult, but not
impossible to select gears.This guide is accessible just by removing gear lever cover. Seems as if it has to be replaced from below which could be a lot of hassle or is there a simple way of doing a temporary fix.
Thanks

I use 2 cars so i tend to have a few days use of each. When I do this I do usually leave tank low(diesel expensive). May just be the problem.

Omega General Help / (slight)starting problem

« on: 14 November 2009, 22:11:59 »

 When I leave my Omega diesel 3/4 days without using, starting always a problem.Been like this for ages.
Funnily though it fires eventually just when you think the battery is just about dead.Always give 2/3 goes on glow even in summer.
Is this a flattish battery, glow problem or something else?
