Omega General Help / Where can i find this part GM GM 90500223?

My expansion bottle on my omega is gone and I keep getting the "coolant level" message on the MID. I do not want to purchase a second hand one as the last one I got lasted only a few months.
My question is where can I get a brand new genuine one?
Part no is  GM, 90500223.
Thanks

My question is. Can a facelift (2002) Miggy be fitted with prefacelift headlight?They all appear the same to me. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Aftermarket, unless you are particularly rich.

Omega General Help / Radiator- Side frames

« on: 16 February 2013, 17:45:23 »

My radiator was leaking from the top hose that connect the radiator to the engine block near the thermostat. I must have applied  a lot of pressure while fitting  a new clip that the plastic hose that connect the radiator to the flexi hose snapped!!! Now as you can imagine the car is unusable until i replace the plastic that sticks out of the radiator side panel.
Question is. Where can i find the side panel for the radiator without buying another radiator? I cannot seem to find any on ebay.

Thx

Give the EGR a good clean: http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90553.0

Also make sure the throttle body is nice and clean: http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=90528.0

Thanks alot mate. Took car to a mechanic, removed egr and cleaned and the area around the EGR base he found a blocked hose full of crap and that is what was causing the problem.
Car is running sweet as a nut!! I am so chuffed.
Happy New year everyone

If when you replaced the cam cover gaskets the plug holes were full of oil by replacing the plugs would have sorted the oil...however were the plug rubbers and springs on your coil pack  split or fouled up because you can replace all 4 springs and rubbers very cheaply ..

Will have a look thanks..
