Omega General Help / Re: Rattle / knocking noise

« on: 17 February 2013, 17:10:29 »

seems to be that droplinks are favourite here... gearbox is manual and doesn't seem to leak...

am currently working in Dublin, so am having to use Opel dealer here... don't know how well they know Omega's... i haven't seen that many here.

rattle starts at about 20mph, but is there at whatever speed i go at above that...

will go back to main dealer and suggest that droplinks are looked at... would they affect the steering? car drives perfect all the time...

thanks

Omega General Help / Rattle / knocking noise

« on: 17 February 2013, 16:59:59 »

Hi,

Am driving 2003 Diesel Estate, 108k miles, FSH... car has been well looked after but has rattle / knocking that is getting worse.

Occurs at speeds over 20mph when i ease off the power... does not appear to be from suspension (can go over speed bumps and it doesn't get worse). Have just had both front wishbones replaced by Main Dealer, but noise still there. All exhaust mounts were replaced as well, just in case

Dealer now says it is engine mounts and recommends replacing 3 mounts (2 x engine and 1 x gearbox)

Is this a common problem? (this is my 3rd Omega and have not come across this problem before) or is there anything else that could be a suspect / possible cause?

thanks
