another concerned newbie !!! lol
« on: 15 July 2010, 14:32:11 »
Hi all
I dont have an O mega as yet but am hoping to pick up a V6 3.0 ELITE estate at the weekend ..... have metioned it to a guy at work and have been told to steer clear of the 3 litre v6 as they " let go" quite regulary something to do with the oil pump which is why he says the scrap yards are full of them and they are so cheep the one im looking at is a 2000 year on a w .... any advice welcome

Cheers
Terry aka Frosty :D

Hiya welcome aboard.
Yes scrap-yards are full of all makes and models,and we all have our preferences as to which cars we own,but i've not heard of the omega v6 having problems with oil pumps.
Saying all that good maintainence is the key to all cars.
