Omega General Help / Re: 2.5 TD ECU location & ebay re-maps

I'll go and have a look!

I've had loads of Diesels, most have a bit of grunt first off. Omega is just too slow untill you get to 2000rpm then it's off!

Sounds like the chip will be the way to go, plus get a good splash of injector cleaner in the fuel filter and make sure they are all ok.

Omega General Help / 2.5 TD ECU location & ebay re-maps

Where the ECU on a 95 2.5TD?

I've got a 1995, 2.5TD that goes well once spooled up but is a slug pulling away. Not a problem day-to-day but I also tow a pretty heavy caravan so this pulling away thing is made 10x worse. It has been regularly serviced (5k oil) and other than the sluggish pull away is a great tow car.

I use biodiesel (proper made stuff, I make & retail processors) and it runs great, only done 125k. Running regular diesel makes little difference.

I have seen re-map chips on ebay from germany, only about £70 posted. I'm sure these have been fitted and talked about as OK on here, but I can't find any info. Has anyone done a DIY chip and what results?

I have seen the auto box and small clutch issue (this is manual) but it's not going to get thrashed, in fact I'd be easier on slipping the clutch if it pulled away well!
