Omega General Help / Possible Head Gasket problem

« on: 13 March 2014, 18:03:46 »

Hi All

I am having an issue with my Omega.
When I stop at lights or after a long run there is smoke/steam rising from under the bonnet and is getting worse.
I also have an oil leak and am using a litre of oil every three weeks or so but I am not sure where the leak is. The engine is covered in oil though much of this was there when I bought the car in November

Could the two issues be related ?
Where would be the best place to get it checked out.
I live in Corby, Northants

Any pointers would be greatly received

Regards

Omega General Help / Vauxhall Omega Elite - Coolant Level Low to Oil Coller change

« on: 23 December 2013, 13:41:55 »

Hi All

Recently I have been having trouble with the coolant level - was topping up on a regular basis.
Last week the level just bottomed. The road side assistant (via Insurance) reckoned it was the Water Cooler after pouring water through the system.
The vehicle is now in the garage. They have suggested it is the Oil Cooler. (at £700 to fix)

Could this sound right ??

Also at the same time the Outside Temp gauge was showing 55 degrees (certainly not here in the Midlands, UK anyway)

Are these linked or co-incidence.

Best Regards and Happy Christmas to all
