When I was diggin about in a breakers recently lookin for a silver passenger door mirror for my 2.2 I was surprised to find a late vectra B  2.2  & the engine was a  cam chain & not a belt. I assumed they had the same engine as my car.  The chain was exposed by someone taking the covers off & it looked like another chain further down driving the water pump maybe ???  though I don`t think that  was a SRI.

I could be mistaken... :-\ Vec C has the Z22 lump, Omega gets the X22 lump, I guess it's possible the facelift Vec B has a chaindriven Y22 lump...

I' m sure someone brighter will be along soon enough ;)

£300 is a no brainer really, I had a few Cav's and Veccy's in my time, no real issues really, same as most VX's, totally different drive to the Omega, SRi's are nippy and you really can bring up the MPG on them if you drive like an old fart and want to save some pennies.  :y

I can't help but think that you are stringing us along, Mr Vauxsull. ;)

well I have a 2008 2.2 .....is that model a timing belt or chain??...not too bad.... :y
Yours is a Vectra C, chain driven and the bonus liability of a troublesome,fragile high pressure fuel pump ::)

OPs potential car is a Vectra B facelift, with essentially the same belt driven 2.2 donkey as the Omega :y


Only fragile if run exclusively on supermarket fuel as it is something they use in the petrol that attacks the seals in the pump...mind you at £400 (or just under)for the pump from Vauxhall more of a reason to keep away from Tesco's/Sainsbury's or the like  :y
