Omega 2.0 Radiator
« on: 15 January 2016, 17:29:09 »
Chap at work needs a new rad in his early facelift 2.0 litre. I owe him a favour so have said I'll sort it.

I've seen this on ebay, it's described as a 2.0 rad, but doesn't look like it'll fit? The right (drivers side) looks correct, but the passenger side has some sort of long plastic bracket which I've not seen on an Omega radiator before.

Is this right for a 2.0? If so it's a good deal, I'll snap it up :y

I don't think it's correct, but would welcome views please :y

Cheap enough to buy and keep for stock,
 snooze and you'll lose James.

What's the crack with the longer bracket type thing? Is that 2.0 specific? I honestly thought rads were the same across the range, bar the aux coolant pump? :y

Take a look at this one also advertised as suitable for 2.0

Looks v different?

Crack on. I've just heard from my mate, he'd rather spend £16k on a new pretend 4 x 4 than fix his omega for the cost of a few pints.  ::)

The one at £58...was fitted to a previous 2.2 omega i had.....it fitted ok but the oil cooler on that one is part of the rad on the side that the bottom hose is.......someone had blanked those  two holes off where the oil cooler pipes were fitted because on the 2.2 the oil cooler is a separate item and fits to the front of the radiator between the rad and air con rad.....also on the same rad below the top hose are two holes for the fan switch and another switch to screw into which is correct for a 2.2.........However on the very cheap £15 rad not only does it have that huge bracket but below the top hose is only one hole for the fan switch to go into...so providing the 2.0 ltr only takes one switch below the top hose then you only have to see if it also has that huge bracket...... :y

Just seen on ebay...item number...141878932247.....2nd hand rad  listed as omega 2.2  and 2.0 ltr......this is the rad as fitted to my 2.2 now.....so you can see by the pic if it is the same as the 2.0ltr..then you will know which one is correct for you...
