Title: 2.6 Rear Diff missing bolt/plug?
Post by: Elite79 on 19 December 2007, 20:48:41

 ;D Hi everyone, another question about my recently purchased Omega 2.6 Elite, I think I might be missing a bolt/plug from the rear diff, does anyone have a picture of the rear diff  on their car they could post/or send me?

From the rear of the car it is on the left hand side and I think oil has escaped from the diff, sorry about the stupid questions I probably should have had it up on the ramps before I purchased it, apart from a couple of niggles I am really chuffed with the motor I have wanted one forever  :D

Thanks Pete, Looks like  I am definately missing a bolt, should I even be driving it?  ::) :-? it is going in for a service on the 27th December, presumably the oil level will be considerably lower than it should be, seems to be running ok?

Are there any signs of the diff oil leaking, if not I would think you should be OK ;)
