I recently bought an X reg Omega. Not my first Omega but my first automatic. For the last month the car has been sitting on my driveway looking very pretty but not at all functional. The gearbox has decided that it doesn't like reverse, well it reverses very slowly but only on the flat and while revving the engine. I have tried filling the gearbox with oil and this helped slightly, but it is now looking like I need a new gearbox and someone in the South Wales area to fit it. Any suggestions??? I need someone reliable and who knows their stuff, local garages have not been wonderful with these cars in the past. :'(

Please update your profile to include engine size as this will determine if you can do any paper clip diagnosis. If you can this is probably your first port of call.
P.S. You might get a better response posting in the general help section.

Does it drive ok forwards?

where in South Wales?
Although my mechanical know how is rubbish there are garages around that may be able to help :y

Yes the car drives brilliantly in forward gears and there is some movement in reverse but not much!
I live in Bridgend in South Wales about 25 miles from Cardiff.
Any help or suggestions would be great.
Thanks
