« on: 23 May 2012, 21:21:03 »
hmm,why an omega....
well,after having 20 years of relatively trouble free motoring from mk2 and mk3 cavaliers,inc 9 years from a v6 cav,i decided to make the jump to the omega simply for comfort and big boot,nice and light 2 tone interior,crushed velour heated seats etc...needless to say ive had my fair share of problems with it,but,its never actually broken down......the fault codes can drive you mad,but with the help of this members advice from this forum,ive learnt a lot,saved money and cured my cars faults...
without all your help.ide of scrapped the car ages ago...
due to this,i now enjoy driving the old omega....thankyou to all who have given me advise..
fuel economy is not great,but hey ho,
the drive and comfort makes up for it..

« on: 12 May 2012, 15:11:17 »
if no signs of oil dripping underneath at the back of the engine,and the plug wells are ok,the only other thing is that the engines burning it...you have no oil patches once its been parked up overnight..?how much oil did you put in when you last serviced it..?
