Some pics of me removing my DIS pack from my omega v6 3.0

Maybe they can be used to as part of the guide for removal

[Tafty]

^^^^ Nothing showing am afraid :-?

Edit: Super job - showing now

[A1TNL]

could someone confirm the pics are showing ok now

Thanks

[albitz]

They are.

  That dispack is well shot .

 PS. Just for your info, it would be best in future to stick some rag or kitchen paper in the inlet manifolds in case you drop a bolt etc. down them .

Yikes! Thats one rotten Coil Pack,when I took mine out I had a problem telling it from the new one.

It is a bit easier if you clear all the bits away from the engine area though. I also removed all the wiper mechanism retaining screws to get that extra millimetre of clearance.

I must say that since I changed mine it is like having a new car,so smooth and punchy. I take the long way home just for fun now!

Although mine wasn't quite as bad as that, mine had started to split due to corrosion of the coils.

There are 4 /torx bolts holding it, I used an 8 mm 1/4" drive hexagonal socket though as my Torx were too fat to fit.
Bottom? Not sure what you mean. You can see in the picture where the 6 HT leads plug into the DIS and at the end of the DIS not shown there's a 4? pin socket for the LT/ECU

Be aware that there are 3 different DIS packs fitted, and it's the 4? pin plug that's different .... I think :-/    
I gave Vauxhall the Bosch number for my replacement, who price matched ..... errrrr .... someone else
