Swap engine 2.5dti 2002
« on: 31 May 2014, 20:54:11 »
Hi
Have 2 omegas, 1 with working engine and a shady body(560000km) and 1 with crashed engine and a nicer body(240000km).....possible too swap the working engine and auto too the nicer one, problems? Syncing electronics, theft protection etc.?
Or is it straight on mechanics work without any hustle?
Thankful for input!

We never got the 2.5DTi here in the UK, we had the lesser 2.2DTi in its place  :'(

Not sure if the pump is coded to the ECU - is so, you'll probably need to swap the ECU (and immobiliser) over as well. If not, should get away with just changing the lump

In the UK, we had the U25DT and X25DT (the earlier, non common rail BMW 2.5TDs) up until 2001. The Y25DT, the BMW common rail one, was only fitted to Opel badged Omegas (and coupled to a 5 speed auto).

I suspect all the info is in TIS, if you have access to that?

Yes, TIS is Vauxhall/Opel's computer based info library.

Did a quick check with a gm workshop, as long as I don't move any of the boxes etc, it's straight mechanics and should start without any problems...hope they are serious! :-)
