Omega General Help / another brake question

« on: 01 April 2009, 22:11:29 »

I have just picked up a 98 omega 2.5 diamond,i had a 97 2.5gl up until a few weeks ago when someone crashed into it. Anyway the brakes on this one feel strange, the pedalis very hard to push down and dont really have a good bite point but the car stops relatively well with enough push, on my last one the brakes where perfect no back pressure before the bite etc. The dealer has replaced the master cylinder and that has improved it a bit but its still not good, all i can think of is either crap pads, a siezed pot in the caliper or something to do with the abs, has anyone got any ideas???

Also can anyone tell me if the suspension i set up softer in the diamond than the GL?? this one feels wollowy in comparison to the last

Wheel bearing :-/

That was a thought for me for about 15 seconds but its not that kind of noise, plus no noise going round corners, on braking etc, purely when accelerating over 2500 revs, its also fine under constant throttle (which would kinda make sense with a fuel pump)

Hi as mentioned in the subject i have a 97 omega 2.5v6 estate, today it developed a whirring noise on right rear side under acceleration above 2500 revs, the noise gets louder as the revs build like a fan with a missing bearing starting up, to me it sounds like the whirring of a fuel pump but there is no problem with fuel delivery to the engine, anyone got any ideas??
