Title: Rear discs - ventilated or solid?
Post by: wombatcurry on 24 January 2007, 18:57:25
Can anyone help please?
I want to order some rear discs to fit at the weekend - only thing is I THOUGHT that Omegas only had solid rears - but one ad on ebay claims to be selling ventilated rears.
I'm annoyed with myself for not having noted what's on the car last weekend when I was doing the shocks - can anyone tell me what I should have please?

Well worth considering Vauxhall replacements over pattern parts as they are good quality and not to expensive especially on trade club, some pattern front discs have been known to warp prematurly

Don't be silly. Of course V6 is not the only omega. We all know that there is a V8 with delivery mileage stashed away somewhere in Russelsheim...  ;D
