Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Elite estate sat nav antenna

« on: 01 April 2009, 20:12:28 »

Hi all,

I have a 99 Elite estate with no sat nav. I however purchased a full estate satnav kit from the great loo-knee.

Question is where does the gps antenna go? I read somewhere that the roof aerial near the back contains this?

I found on the saloon it goes in the dash, but unsure on the estate!!!!!

Thanks

Andy

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / MP3 Cd changer??????? IS there one?

« on: 19 March 2009, 10:26:13 »

Hey all,

Just a quicky!

Is there any aftermarket MP3 cd changers that will interface with the omega headunits?

I have a 99 elite with the Bose, phone, sub woofer blah blah blah system and dont want to lose the head unit but REALLY want to play MP3's!!!!!

I do have a mega expensive Alpine mp3 cd headunit (from my young and crazy days!) but am reluctant to fit it as i lose my bose/phone system!!!

Thanks

Andy

Omega General Help / Re: 3.0xe redtop lumpy runing ,and revs up and down ,,

« on: 31 January 2009, 22:02:21 »

Now that is incredible! One of the best sleepers ive seen!!!!!!

Imagine being sat on a dual carriage way at 70-80 in your 3.0 elite when suddenly a 19somthing vw flatbed rips past with induction roar that will suck a pidgeon dead at 20ft.

Fantastic, and fair play.............Oh and uhhhhh Try lambda sensors, they do such wierd things when they play up!

Omega General Help / Re: Has anyone heard of doing this before?

Thanks for your reply Loo-Knee. They guy i was speaking with said that the biggest prob with vauxhall v6's are the exhaust restrictions. The omega in particular has a very restrictive exhaust manifold and grinding the ports and maniflold will improve flow.

I didnt relise you could grind the inlet also!!!

Hi All,

I was advised that if i grind my omega 3.0 exhaust ports i would gain more flow.

I have drawn a crude picture to help explain, the red ring is what im advised to grind away on the head and exhaust manifold. I think its where the air injection goes in.


Thanks everyone

Omega General Help / Omega 2.5 elite heaters???

« on: 30 August 2008, 09:37:39 »

Morning all,

i have a prob with my 1999 omega elite. I cant get any heat from the heaters. I get nice cold aircon. Ive checked the vacum supply to the HBV and its working as it should.
I select heat on the climate control and it stays cold, if i press eco it goes luke warm.

Ive been advised that it could be my blendoor???!?!?!?!?!?

Any idea?

Thanks Andy
