If you were closer I could've got them on TC for you avoiding postal charges ....... though they'd still work out to be quite reasonable compared to full retail price. 

Thanks.

What's retail on these units bud I've got TC with my other forum club but not sure if my local one will accept it lol

General Car Chat / 2.2 Elite DTI S/L Rear Shock

« on: 12 February 2013, 20:42:57 »

My rear tyre ive just found to be shot, jacked up the car and thought wheel isnt coming off the ground as it should.  Eventually it did and it looks like the rear shock is shot  Infact im pretty sure it should not come all the way out as it has lol.

Anyways my question to you guys is,

Do I have to replace with a S/L one ?
Are the Estate and Saloon the Same ?
Would it affect the car if i replaced with non S/L ones ?

Thanks

Omega General Help / 2.2 Dti Fuel Economy...

« on: 09 January 2013, 08:12:56 »

Having a quick look through post on here and seem's avg MPG for the 2.2dti is 35+ more so on a long run  ( yeah i know different circumstances etc ) however on a run no matter how nice I drive,  computer shows no more than 25mpg :S, i know the computer isnt the most acuratce but its a rough idea. I just seem to be filling as much as a petrol  , this isnt even towing  ( this drops to 17mpg lol )

Do you guys recomend anything I can run through the system ? or any common valves that clog etc that might be worth a clean / swap as car has 136k on now.  It had a serive a year ago by last owner by the looks of things but no really what was done so ill get fuel filter etc to try help.

Im sure this car is trying to test me lol

Omega Gallery / The 'Other' Car ( old skool )............

« on: 05 January 2013, 03:37:20 »

As much as my Omega is a great car the 'other' car is the better half's really but I do like driving it when she lets me lol

It's a work in progress but we use as a daily driver and hoping to have it all done for the shows this year,







We love it no power steering, no abs, no elec windows just a  2.0 8V with skinny tyres and 900KG in weight = Proper driving
