just trying to get my cdc2 autochanger to recognise the magazine do the discs go straight into the cartridge or should there be trays which slide out for each disc

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / aerial lead ?
« on: 19 June 2008, 22:07:38 »
hi, in my elite saloon where the loom goes into the boot mounted nav cd unit there is a aerial lead tapped to the wiring. should this be plugged in to the cd unit some where or would it originate from phone aerial mount on roof ? i havent delved to far in to the latter yet. also behind the radio unit (ccrt700) amongst the spagetti wiring i have the radio aerial lead attached to the bottom of the radio but there is also another lead not attached to anything. all a bit long winded but any pointers appreciated
cheers.
cheers.

support on axle stands always, and don't forget to undo brake fluid reservoir cap and put some rag around the side of reservoir body.

hi, in retightening cam covers without a torque wrench and having to guess. as a rough guide just nipping the bolts until slight resistance with a spanner and small nip all the way round suffice do you think? :-/

Omega General Help / Re: v6 oil leak
« on: 05 May 2009, 21:16:50 »
trying to trace oil leak. have put on ramp and oil is from engine dripping down from rear at top. are the only places it could come from be cam covers or oil cooler pipe leak. i'm worried it might be head gasket ?

followed cam cover to head line and no sign of leakage. felt round back of half moons and they're dry (with engine running). all plug tubes are dry and taken top manifolds off as far as oil cooler plate and no oil around there. the coolant bottle has no foreign bodies and the oil on dipstick is ok. now putting back together and will wait to put on a ramp for a better view, any ideas where else it could leak from? :-/

hi, have a steady drip of oil from possibly the top osr of engine. if there is no oil in spark plug holes could it still be a possible cam cover gasket ?
