Took me a while to find the time but you are both right - replaced a 7.5 amp blade type fuse in the back of the unit- job done- thanks for help. Dave

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / CCRT 700 Dead!
« on: 07 March 2007, 20:27:35 »
A few days ago my battery mysteriously discharged itself- I got a jump start and it now seems to be charging fine (I'm pretty sure I hadn't left anything on). Since this I can get no sign of life from my CCRT 700 radio/phone unit. I have unlock codes for both the head unit and the CD changer but as it seems to be totally dead I can't get to the stage of entering codes. Any ideas?

I've had both gaskets on a V6 replaced, smoke coming from under the bonnet a bit alarming! - local garage was about £120. I asked them to check the breathers after reading the forum here and all were clear. First side replaced has now done 20k miles with no reoccurence

Omega General Help / Re: Airbag warning light
« on: 18 April 2009, 20:48:02 »
Problem solved by a local garage who did the MOT. He said it was most likely to be a connection on the seat belt pre-tensioners which can work loose with moving the seat back and forward - sure enough he was right - job done!

General Car Chat / Re: What to replace the Omega with??
« on: 29 June 2010, 20:17:45 »
my Omega finally died - choice of replacement? Saab 9-5 2.3t estate...reasons?
1. same reason I bought the Omega, they depreciate like crazy..a 56 plate with 32k on the clock £8600, and that was from a Saab dealer - list price new was a shade under 32k!!
2. It's another big estate with reasonable performance
Verdict after a couple of months...interior is better put together than the Omega, handling is much better despite front wheel drive (it's the Vector Sport model with the "sports chassis"), acceleration - worse than the 2.5 V6 Omega at low revs but better at high revs...guess that's the turbo. It's a bit thirstier on the short runs but then it's an auto and my Omega was manual.
If you were after a real Omega beater then the HOT Aero would do the job, I didn't fancy the insurance or fuel bills and I wasn't convinced that the fwd would cope with all the horsepower.
and as a final bonus they too have a good online owners forum!
