Omega General Help / Re: Oil filter conversion
« on: 28 May 2012, 13:19:49 »
Hi, I actually have a Vectra not an Omega, fitted with an X18XE1 engine, which probably has been fitted an Omega or the 2.0 litre version has at some point. Anyway, I have had the same problems with the oil filter housing as mentioned by other members on this site. The photos in the conversion to a canister type of oil filter look the same as my engine and so would the conversion be the same? Do I need the same adapter stud as mentioned and what is the ref. no. of the oil filter that I would require, as the ref no. is not shown in the photos. Is it as simple, as using the canister oil filter as fitted to the X18Xe engine? Many thanks!
