Omega General Help / Re: Oil leak advice

With the ban bang clunk from the front suspension, the pretty marks on the road when its raining, The big coat dont even come into it. Id rather sit back and wait for a fine day. Im a lazy git. No seriously im not using the car that much at the moment but its forecast rain for the next few days so just doing some research for when the weather is better. Perhaps i will win the lottery before it gets fine. Ha, Ha. Ive got more chance of climbing Everest on a pogo stick.

The oil seems to be right at the back. there is no show of oil from the front or the sides of the rocker, just the last couple of inches at the back but i cannot trace the leak thats why i was asking if there are other known ares where it may leak.

I noticed this the other day so checked the oil this morning and hey presto it needed topping up. That confirmed a leak. Just what i wanted, i love cars.

I will update when i know more and after ive had a nervous breakdown.
Cheers.

Omega General Help / Oil leak advice

« on: 24 October 2006, 19:01:00 »

Greetings fellow Omega worshippers.. (Maybe thats over the top).

As you all might have noticed by my avatar, I have a different Omega, Had it a month or so now, Its only a 2.0 CD but it suits me.

My problem is i have an oil leak, seems to be from the rear of the engine. Is there any other usual places apart from the rocker cover gaskets that leak. I noticed pretty colours on the road when it was raining but on closer inspection cant seem to locate the leak.

It has gone from max to minimum on the dipstick in about 200 miles of local driving. Does anyone know if i might be barking up the wrong tree with the rocker gasket. Apart from that it seems to be going fine, well apart from the bang bang clunk from the front end. It gives me something to listen to until i fit a radio..All i need now is for the faries at the bottom of the garden to fix it,Wouldnt that be nice.

Answers on a postcard please..
