don't think i've seen such a short post with so many spelling errors! Translating into English i think it reads, a friend has Calibra with 3.0 V6, when it gets hot all power is lost.

marke, it might have helped if you proof read the post first  ::)

Any codes stored?

ill hazzard a guess at the crank sensor, seeing as the heat will be cooking the sensor wiring, altho seeing as its been squeezed into a calibra, there is no way of knowing or telling what wiring, ecu, engine components have been used.

Either need more detail or try a calibra forum

Yes but an Omega had to die to do this.

There are too many wrong wheel drive cars as it is.

As said earlier, you should check for any error codes and then post them here.

From memory, Calibra has a 10 pin diag socket, so will need to check pinouts first.

ALDL type connection then. Should be able to blink codes out without too much of an issue.

Hmmm, perhaps the Omega was already dead? Besides, 3.0 Vectra's and Calibra's are great cars, GM really missed an opportunity not dropping the 3.0 in at the factory....

As far as wrong wheel drive goes.... Hmmmm, I don't think 99% of drivers give a stuff which wheels are driven. Yes, on here we all love the way big heavy RWD cars drive and handle but not all FWD cars handle poorly.
