Hi all I am thinking of selling my 2001 (Y) mv6 estate it started life as a 2.6 auto but was converted by robsey on here to 3.2 manual with parts from a ex police car . I have replaced the dif with a 2.5 diesle unit when the sliper died . It's got 147 K on the clock and is in fairly good condition with the odd ding and scratch but nothing serious the ns wing could do with re painting as the lacquer has gone and it has a tiny rust bubble where the vauxhall badge used to be on the tailgate it z380 krypton green and will come with a set of mv6 wheels and a set of 18 fox racing wheels that could do with a referb . The clutch is getting tired and not sure if it's the tires or a noisy wheel bearing but it's got a bit of a rumble sadly . It's had polly bushes fitted to the front wishbones and has had the 3.0 cats fitted but still throws up a cat efficiency code now and again . Just looking to see what sort of sensible offers I can get on here before I advertise it else where

Omega General Help / Re: eml light again

bugger what could be causing the high fuel consumption poor running when cold  and hesitation under certain conditions that wont throw up a trouble code . when the light came on i dipped the clutch and the engine did not like revving past 5k but when in gear it would pull cleanly through  to the red line ?

apart from the light on and high fuel consumption what other issues can be attributed to this fault ?

thanks guys its just very odd that it came on the day i get a pair of modded 3.0 downpipes delivered . any advice on removing the 3.2 downpipes do the bolts from the manifold to the down pipe have a habit of snapping ?

findings so far after fitting the poly bushes to the wishbones are a marked improvement in cross winds and general handling steering feels much more positive only thing is it seems to have highlighted the rear end problems so time to save up for some pedders subframe bushes . are the rear tie rod bushes a common problem and is it worth replacing them as well ?
