@ AL...... Last time I went into my Vx dealers they said that the parts for Omegas are obsolete now and they don't carry any stock for them....

@TB...... is that complete with sensor...?

Don't carry stock translates to can't be arsed to order it in...

Time to find another dealer

Only proper Vx dealers around these parts mate, and Iv got to know the parts supply people quite well too

I'll just get 1 from elsewhere, or just walk in with the part number and get them to order it...


Last time I went to the Vx dealers it was for a set of HT leads and thats when they came back and said the parts for the Omega's are getting obsolete now as they're getting to be over 10 years old....

To suggest that summat is obselete simply because the car is over ten years old and not even bother checking is plain lazy at best... chances are they might have it in group stock, especially service items...

Halfrods sell a nice Laser tool for that very task

If breather bridge off, then reconnect hoses before refitting bridge, so you're clear of the scuttle...

Otherwise plenum off and pull it forward a couple of inches and fit hoses

.... or replace original clips with small jubilee clips.  Heresy I know but a lot easier.

Or cable ties, they're only vac hoses after all

...and fitted it. Eventually. While in bat mode... Cc fan now works.


Also ran the blutooth cable inside the centre consol. Which was needing doingses for monthses.


In fact, any improvements to be made on omegas. Wait until summat breaks in that area, and kill two fishes with one stoneses.

You can't say that here! I can hear the Omega Inquisition plumping up the cushions for the comfy chair as I type this.
The fact that you're right just makes things worse for you


And yes, mine are held on with cable ties.
