Omega General Help / Power steering fail

« on: 12 October 2016, 11:53:51 »

Hello,

Firstly, I must say a belated thank you to all who helped on my previous post.

On Monday whilst parking my 2.2 CDX the power steering failed. The steering wheel will turn but only just. It is not drivable as you need some serious muscle to steer. The fluid is topped up and there were no warning signs or strange noises beforehand. Any ideas?

Omega General Help / My New Omega

« on: 08 September 2016, 12:35:38 »

Hello all,

I have just purchased an Omega 2.2 CDX on an X plate, 2000 I believe. I picked it up last night and have given it a very close inspection this morning. I have found a number of issues, some of which I identified before purchasing, some I didn't. I would greatly appreciate any help baring in mind that I have never before owned a Vauxhall and have very little experience under the hood. I am happy to have a go at fixing anything and so would like to try and sort it out myself before taking it to a garage.

The issues are as follows:

1. On the remote locking all the doors operate as they should other than the drivers door. It work fine with the key inserted.

2. The drivers electric seat will not move forward all the way. I can just about reach the peddles, but my partner can't.

3. There is an oil leak which ends up dripping from the oil filter. I'm not sure of the origin of it.

4. when driving it home last night the windows kept steaming up and the blowers seamed to have little effect.

Much appreciation for any help, thoughts, ideas or encouragement!

Thank you

Sean
