General Discussion Area / Radiator Question
« on: 12 November 2012, 14:46:28 »
Hi Everyone!
Does anyone know how much it costs to get a central heading radiator moved? I just moved into a new place and the radiator is on the chimney breast wall.
I want to put a gas fire and fireplace in but the radiator is in the way.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

General Discussion Area / Broadband Help Needed Please
« on: 31 October 2012, 10:33:03 »
Hi everyone.
I moved house on Sunday. What a nightmare!!
I rang sky to tell them a week in advance about the move and they have totally mucked up my broadband order for my new place. After ringing them five times and being on the phone for ages they are now saying that the earliest they can install is 7th December. I told them I need it sooner and the 7th is no good so I'm left with no broadband and they said fine, go away then.
Does anyone know any other provider that is not too expensive and won't make me wait ages for installation? I can't afford high upfront charges as I'm buying Tall Paul's mig soon.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
I'm currently using mobile broadband which is very expensive.

General Car Chat / What's the difference?
« on: 24 October 2012, 19:23:56 »
Getting my new mig next month. Hooray!!
It's a 2003 2.6 CDX saloon model. The newest one I've had before was a T reg MV6 estate.
Just wondering what the differences are? Which is better, old or new?
I'd really like to hear your opinions as I've never driven or been in the youngest models.
Many thanks!

Cars for Sale & wanted / Cheap Omega WANTED!!
« on: 20 October 2012, 12:26:38 »
Hi everyone!
Once again I'm looking for a really cheap Omega. Anything would do as long as it can get me from A to B. The most important thing is that it is cheap as I'm not working due to poor health.
I'm moving to a different area of London where parking is available. Hoorah!
I'm willing to say pretty please and beg etc!!
I don't mind if it has been crashed as long as it moves and the Police don't stop me! ha ha!
Thanks very much in advance.

General Discussion Area / Home Wanted for Friendly Staffy
« on: 31 January 2012, 15:20:17 »
Hi Everyone
I'm looking for a home for my Staffy. She is 8 years old, very friendly and a bit overweight. She likes walking, people, cats and especially kids. She is a bit wary of other dogs bit gets used to them after a while.
I moved into a flat and we are not allowed to have dogs. It's very very sad for me.
If anyone is interested or knows anyone that might be then let me know.
Thanks very much.

Cars for Sale & wanted / For Sale Black Omega Elite Auto with T&T
« on: 09 November 2011, 19:56:35 »
Hi there oofers!
My plans have changed so I've definitely got to sell my mig asap. I have already listed all the details in my other thread which is now locked so have a look at that.
It needs a new battery now as I bought a second hand one and it's dies on me. I have an ok spare one that will get you home though.
Included in the sale are some spares including a set of rear wheel arches and some primer and stuff.

Hi Everyone.
Unfortunately I'm having to sell my Omega due to moving to Chelsea and having nowhere to park it. I'm asking £300 - I just taxed it last month and have bought a few parts. It has some damage due to vandalism, hence the low price, but it drives great. It has a slight rattle at the front but it passed it's test like that. I'm not sure what it is but it's not the engine as that's great. I'll list the info new so it's easy to read:
*Tested until 7th March 2012
*Taxed until 31st March 2012
* 2.5l
*Diamond black metallic
*Auto
*170000 miles
*Black leather
*Had replacement battery, airbag sensor and HBV
*Wheel arches are rusty but a replacement set is included
* Heated seats don't work but everything else does
*Haynes manual and a few spares included and some paint and primer
* Tow bar and electrics fully working
*A good quality trailer is available for an extra £60
* Drives great and will make a good car for someone
PM me if you are interested!

Been having a problem with the airbag system. Got some diagnostic data which says that the battery voltage is 11.25. Does this mean that the battery is faulty?
Many thanks!

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Battery v Alternator
« on: 30 July 2011, 18:49:24 »
My battery has gone flat 3 times now. I have no equipment to test it. I was planning to get a new battery on Monday but I was worried that it could be the alternator at fault. Is there any easy way to test which it could be?
The ignition light does not come on at all when the car is running, so I thought it must be the battery at fault.
I've got a multimeter but I lost the prong things when I moved house. Where could I buy a cheap multimeter or prongs?
If I buy a battery I definitely won't be able to afford a new alternator.
Any ideas what would be best to do?
Thanks very much!

« on: 22 October 2009, 17:59:20 »
Hi everyone. Got my MV6 yesterday and it has the little Philips Sat Nav screen. I can't find the actual unit in the car.
Is this system any use and is it worth trying to find a unit and disc for it?
Thanks for any advice!

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / CD changer problem.
« on: 10 February 2008, 19:42:49 »
Hi everyone. My cd changer is broken, the magazine won't stay in, it just ejects all the time so I assume it's broken.
My question is do I have to replace it with exactly the same model (Blaupunkt CDC2)? The radio cassette in the car is the Philips CCR 600. Would other cd changers work?
Thanks very much.
