Omega General Help / Re: Handling / Steering - Not sure what's going on and tearing my hair out.

i know from what you have said about the steering but the omega is full of nylon bushes you cant see, if worn this could be a poss cause, the idler arm on nearside chassis leg went on mine causing it to jump about, or poss the mounting bushes on the top of the front struts, poss the camber angle of the front wheels may be wrong,Jack the car up so you can get under it, but keep the wheels in contact with the ground, or use ramps get someone to rock the steering, and just check for any undue movement, on the track rod ends, idler arms,anti role bar drop links, wishbone bushes etc etc, mainly just to rule them out of the problems, hope you get it sorted 
by previous owner, all I can find is a piece of copper pipe where I think this valve should be!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After a spot of engine cleaning, on my 2.2 dti, I've found a small bore black pipe, with a rubber elbow on it with a bolt stuck in it. I've traced it to behind the glovebox area,from there it goes along the bulkhead, down the offside off the engine bay, to where the wabasto heater is, after searching for pest part off an hour, can't find where it would go. Any help on this matter would be great, or if anyone with a dti could trace this pipe and let me know where it should fit many thanks girls nd boys :-)
