I thought the ZF6 was an autobox?

Mechanical fitting aside, you would need somebody to map any TCM you can find that works on the ZF6 (the standard Omega one won't, as its for the 5 speed variant)Does the Omega care what gear the manual is in ![]() |

MAF on a V6 should read about 12kg/hr with A/C off, and 13-14kg/hr with A/C on. 2.0/2.2 will probably be around 1-2kg/ht less.
OBDII code readers aren't often successful on a 2.2, so you will need something a little more GM specific or upmarket. If a given code reader reports in g/s, just use maths to convert to kh/hr |

I had the same idea with my last 2.5 DTI, and everyone that I asked told me that it's not easily doable. There are some differences in bolt positions on bell housing as I remember. It's possible to adapt it but it's would not be cheap.
I now a guy that swapped 3.0 M57 from E38 730d in Omega, but with auto box, they do fit without problems. |

Biggest question will be whether it fits in the tunnel

Hi all, I have been searching with no results...any idea if a 6 speed conversion with a box fron a 525/530d bimmer has been done to an x25dt Omega?
Early M57 are suposed to have same bellhousing bolt pattern as M51 (aka x25dt) and should be a bolt on (quite more less) |

If you drift a bit too enthusiastically, you might find that the body shell will part company with the wheels.Best thing you can do is choose a car you like, and buy the nicest one you can find.What if you'd overdosed on Dorset Turnips and liked a Morris Marina, like Sir Tig..... It's surprising that that never happened considering what I put the poor thing through! ![]() |

Might be wrong there. Was it the front that was torsion bar? Yep, front had torsion bars and was spongy as hell with way too much travel. Rear had leaf springs that were rock hard and had very little travel. What could possibly go wrong there? Oh, and the front trunnion joints needed replacing with every MOT, because they were designed for the Morris Minor. |

Went to Tesco's and when I got to the checkout realised I had forgotten to bring a bag, but as I didn't have much I decided I was too tight to pay 40p for a carrier bag.Police are on the lookout for two seagulls with smelly breath 😂 At least I managed to rescue enough for my tea tonight. ![]() |
