A number of members of one of the Jag forums where I'm a member, swear by and recommend this process, with improvements being noted.

As a matter of interest Sam, where abouts did you go for it?

A franchise in Letchworth Garden City

General Car Chat / My Date with Terraclean

« on: 20 April 2013, 19:03:12 »

Hi Guys,

For those who watch Car Restoration and repair programs on Discovery you might have seen Edd China's adverts for Terraclean i had some Close Friends recommend this 'Revolutionary' Cleaning agent,

Being my DTi has now just clocked 197000 Miles  i thought what the heck ill give it a shot, So i had it booked in for Today through a Trade Friend and thought i would share my input

Yesterday (Friday) i did the Lower Decat on the DTi which was a good thing as it doesent hold any precious metals infact its just very tightly packed Aluminium foil.

(Before you get bored Read on as there is something in it for you)

The car performs so much better its lost a flat spot in low down revs and also lets the turbo spool quicker. So thats good However i still knew theres more to be achieved

So decided to have the Terraclean done




The mechanics at the Terraclean place was intreiged as the'ye 'never come across a Diesel Omega' but then i was introduced to the technician who was working on my car and he has Previous experience working for Vauxhall and Apologised for the IQ of the other technicians  he went straight to the fuel injection feed and return and couldnt have been more efficient, Nice lad who noticed my Omegaowners.com sticker in the rear window, He disappeared for a moment and then reappeared and we starting discussing OOF

So the car run on the Terraclean solution for just under the Hour and the Engine note did change several times and he proved to me that the Carbon Deposits were being removed by a simply removing the exhaust extraction for a moment and showing me the black deposits flying out 



NOW...

For all of you that are interested the Technician and his Boss have said anyone who wishes to have the Terraclean service done if we go in a group they will give us a nice % discount  I dont work for them so not promoting or anything like that before people start getting upset i am purely a customer of there work who is impressed with results and they gave me this Offer purely as i am Part of this Owners Club

General Car Chat / Towing question

« on: 16 March 2013, 22:26:26 »

Hi guys and girls,

I'm curious I'm looking into getting either a transporter trailer or towing dolly but I only got my license in 2010 so does this mean I have to get a different type of licence to tow a dolly with a project car on?

General Car Chat / Re: Y22DTH De-CAT

« on: 13 March 2013, 22:39:46 »

Body is same style and same colour as my 3.2, Engine and other diesel related parts are the same as Mrs VXL's Estate, NCDC / CID / MP3 modulator, mats, rear blind, refurbished headlights, poly bushes, wheels with Toyo T1R's, Heat reflective windscreen etc etc etc will end up being migrated to the next 'daily driver omega' when it's purchased. At the end there won't be much left that doesn't get used 

I see we'll atleast it lives on in some respects lol

The major cause of VP44 issues is problems elsewhere......

Two main causes of faults on VP44's

1) Lubrication issues of the mechanical side of the pump
2) Failure of EDC (multiple issues but usually fixed with the correct soldering equipment - which alas I do not have....  - ultimately, I'm not prepared to pay the costs to have the EDC repaired on a 170K car as there's too many other potential failure points to consider)

So what are you going to do with it?

General Car Chat / Re: Clutch or Dual Mass

« on: 13 March 2013, 10:23:46 »

I would say it needs a clutch. So long as you've got no vibration or clunking and banging from the gearbox area you should be ok with the DMF

Okay Pete Cheers

Saw this car at the Classic Car Show at the NEC recently, my brother and I just looked at each other open-mouthed when we saw it, it is absolutely phenomenal, classic shape yet up-to-the-minute touches and technology. And it's now for sale! Really need to get in the habit of doing the lottery

That motor is so sexy love the colour against the wheels

I did start to look into if anyone had done a solid flywheel conversion for a DTi but haven't seen a story for an omega DTi with the y22dth engine as of yet
