Is it difficult to do it? Haynes manual says that a steering wheel needs to be removed as well and i don't really want to deal with the airbag.

Omega General Help / autobox goes in limp mode
« on: 21 November 2007, 22:23:24 »
Hello everybody! My 2.0 96' Omega has a quite annoying problem - autobox doesn't want to shift gears automaticly! When I start the engine "automatic gearbox" appears on display and I have to shift gears manually. When I bought the car it already had this problem, but it only appeared once in 4-5 starts and turning the engine off and on again solved the problem each time. It got much worse after i've cleaned the breathers and icv ( i also readjusted the throttle cable because idle revs were too high after the clean ). Sometimes when the engine is warm it doesn't go limp straight away, but after several mins of driving. Also when it happens I can hear a relay clicking somewhere behind the dashboard and the revs start to go up and down for about a minute. I've changed the autobox fluid but that didn't help at all. Maybe I've messed up something during the icv clean but I have no idea what?? Does anybudy have any suggestions what it can be?
