Omega General Help / Dead Engine

« on: 16 October 2008, 17:27:41 »

Good evening people, my 52 plate 2.2 petrol omega died suddenly without warning not a cough splutter or any noise. i was doing about 25 - 30 mph when it died and coasted to a stop. my mechanic buddy reckoned it was timing belt but that was o.k. so he said it must somehow be seized. when trying to start the starter motor makes noise but can't turn the engine over. the oil level is perfect.
 I really don't know what to do with it if it needs a new engine how much and where to get a good job done?  the cars covered 165,000 miles but still looks good and was running like a dream til monday night.
 Any help or suggestions gratefully received.

Omega General Help / carpet mats

« on: 09 December 2007, 14:35:30 »

After purchasing a set of mats for my recently cleaned omega i got the pack home fitted the mats but the drivers side mats came complete with two screws to hold them down!! Down onto what? they are not the self tapping sort i have had before they look like they need to screw int something

my vauxhall dealer failed to mention fittings so has anybody got a clue?

Omega General Help / Re: Rear shocks

« on: 09 December 2007, 14:40:46 »

My old elite had leaking shock absorbers with self levelling, my local dealer quotes about £130 without fitting that's each. my local motor factors said dealer only part although i found some cheaper bilstein shocks without self levelling for about £60 a shock but no one could tell me if unplugging the self levelling system would throw up any fault codes or cause any problems.

Good luck.

p.s. after a looking at a bill of about £1200 to fix up my old elite i found it cheaper to trade it in for a much newer model.
