Thanks for the advice all. It's an auto so looks like transmission issues. I'll pass on it and carry on looking elsewhere...

Omega General Help / What should I look for...?

« on: 16 September 2009, 18:34:54 »

I'm intending to look at a 53reg CDX 2.2i on Sunday advertised for £1.4k. It's done 112k and looks in good nick throughout. The only downer is no service history and the seller has admitted the service light is on so a service is due.

What should I look for in particular common faults? I know that rocker gaskets can fail and should I buy it a service including cambelt kit and gaskets would be first on my list but should I look anywhere else - and is it possible to check condition of said gaskets?

I don't know much about engines - my level expertise streches to changing plugs, leads and dis packs but that's about it! All other work would be done by my usual family run garage.

Thanks all
