Omega General Help / 2.6 V6 head removal

« on: 15 January 2026, 23:21:46 »

Right, found a pair head so that my weekend job sorted.

Quick question.
Can you remove the d/s head with the exhaust manifold still attached,just splitting it at the down pipe. Or do you need to remove it from the head.

Got to swop out the head this weekend and not sure the best way to do it.

Any advice welcome.

Has anyone got a 2.6 V6 drivers side cyl head?

I'm in the shit having just cracked mine trying to get the water bridge banjo bolt out.

The banjo bolt had snapped and the bit left in the head would not budge.

Any help would be most helpful.

Omega General Help / Thermostat transfir pipe

Long shot, but does anyone have a coolant transfer pipe for the V6 engine.
Need to do a thermostat change, and I know the transfer pipe is going to brake, so trying to locate one first.

Omega General Help / Central locking problem

« on: 25 December 2025, 18:19:44 »

The remote central locking stoped working a while ago,so I have been locking the car manually which has not been a problem until yesterday.
The mechanism has now started to get stiff and sometimes the key will not turn without rigurling it about.
What do you think could be the problem, the lock mechanism, or the connecting bars.


Thanks for any help.

Omega General Help / Kyb front springs questions

« on: 06 October 2022, 21:37:56 »

Just got a new set of kyb front springs. According to the kyb site the longer spring (RC1540) is fitted to the left (passenger side) but on another post on this site it says that the longer spring is right (drivers side).
Please can anyone give me the correct fitting before I pay someone to fit them.
Thanks.

Omega General Help / Re: Wanted urgent, V6 coolent transfer pipe

« on: 30 January 2022, 18:56:45 »

I have managed to find a s/h one, so the urgency has reduced.😃
But I'm thing, get a new one from the US anyway, as next time I need to do  a thermostat change I will probably need one anyway😈 But at around £70 with import tax, they are not cheap.

Omega General Help / Wanted urgent, V6 coolent transfer pipe

« on: 29 January 2022, 14:16:18 »

I know I should have expected it to happen, but as it was off only a few months ago, I thought it would be OK.
Changing thermostat and the transfer pipe has broken.

Hoping someone can help me out as the only ones I can find are in the USA, with at least a month delivery.

The car is my every day transport so need it fixing asap.
Thanks for any help.
