Omega General Help / Re: Hand Brake Shoe Pin Corroded through the Back Plate

Yes, spacers are good. I used size 34/60/4.5 one after another to pull bearing in. If I remember right after having pulled two spacer thickness I taped three of them together
to make it easier to remove them in the end as single spacer can drop to the groove.

I mean to pull the hub in as Nick W said, sorry.

Thanks Enceladus and GastronomicKleptomaniac, that is the one, I remember 10 or 12mm allen. I am afraid rubber is hard as glas after 24 years, I try to find this seal.

Thanks Dave, everything is possible when I am working but now I am looking for spare number of the seal between canister frame and engine block. It is original from 2001, I have owned this car almost from new. You can see the seal below.

Omega General Help / Oil Leak around Oil Filter Area, V6, Y26SE

« on: 07 June 2025, 15:04:05 »

So still oil leaking from somewhere. I have canister type filter and both canister and cap is wet in outer bottom side. Cam seals are ok. Canister is not loose so could it be the sealing between it and engine block. What kind of seal there is and does anybody have spare part number. What else it could be? I remember oil cooler pipes are there and also crank sensor. All tips welcome.

Sure, understood from your "Clattering-Case" that you car has only 67k (miles) behind, you engine and environment look much more cleaner than mine having done 31000 km (190000 miles) if I calculated it right, really nice!

I think both connectors and routing can bee seen in fourth picture of the link. https://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=113765.0
The position of the solenoid valve there is somehow different than how it is in my Y26SE, see below.

Thanks for comments, yes, nice place (and car as well because rear arcs cannot be seen well). It is in Finland Naantali, in west Cost of Finland so it is the sea you can see through the trees.
