« on: 10 May 2011, 09:57:43 »

Fault codes

P0100 MAF/VAF sensor  Present -002 signal too low.

Would it be an idea to replace old sensor and reset faults and see what happens ?

Omega General Help / MAF low signal

« on: 10 May 2011, 09:46:58 »

Hi all,

Had a few posts about my cars problems and I seem to be getting to the bottom of it , I hope !!

Had it on a diagnostic and cleared the faults.

MAF was showing a low voltage signal and when I increased the revs the co2 readings did not alter. I had replaced the MAF with a cheap version off ebay. The car was running sweet then after a while it dropped into safe mode and emmissions light returned, I expected this.

My question is, looking at previous answers to other peoples problems, do I trust the MAF fault and assume the new unit is faulty or is there somthing else I need to be looking at electrically. :-/

Omega General Help / Re: Lambda sensor location

« on: 04 May 2011, 18:13:30 »

91000 miles, although it had a replacement engine at 76000, the dealer i bought it off replaced this so i am not sure of the true mileage. This was done 3 years ago and the car has run brill. 12 months ago i had it of the road for 5 months, economic reasons, then when it was back on the road the service light came on. Changed the plugs and it was okay. I was advised to change the coil banks as I have just done.
It also has become thirsty, misfires a little and it runs rich, the emmisions are strong in petrol fumes.

A few months ago the emmision light came on. So the MAF meter was changed. Still a problem.
After asking a few questions on here the lambda was pointed out to me. After reading about these sensors, the problems caused seem relevant.
I am still open to any experienced advice.

Just one thought, for some reason the TC light somtimes comes on and seems to go into safe mode. It is really mind boggling.

Basically plucking at straws :-?
 
When I mentioned my problems on here a few weeks ago I was told it maybe the lambda and after looking into it my problems do seem to point to this.

I know i have spent alot of money already and not got anywhere yet but the car is worth it.

Omega General Help / Re: Audiable Beeps

« on: 23 February 2011, 08:00:17 »

Thanks for that, looked back into the web history for other experiences and after frightening the life out of my wife, it  is coming out at the weekend. Just as an after thought, is this problem also linked to the alarm going off while driving. It has only happened a couple of times but this has been in the last 2 weeks about the same as the bleeps occured.

Omega General Help / Audiable Beeps

« on: 22 February 2011, 21:00:46 »

Hi all,

Has anyone had any bleeps come from the engine bay.
Yesterday as I switched off the engine and got out, my 2.6 cdx 2002 gave 4 beeps, not any sort of beeps that come from an alarm, but somthing similar. It also happened a couple of days previous.

Any ideas ?

Regards  Geoff  :-?

Omega General Help / 2.6 auto box oil change

« on: 11 July 2010, 18:48:24 »

I have looked through previous posts but not found how to service an autobox.
I have managed on other cars but when i got under my car, all i found was one plug :-/. Nothing on bottom of sump only one that i presume is the filler.
 So my questions are , how do i drain ? what is the small sump for ? Is the filter easily changed ?
Any advice and help greatly appreciated.
