Omega General Help / Loss of Coolant, Poss leak

« on: 29 January 2009, 16:24:18 »

Hi all
When I had my 2.5 MOT'D the mechanic noticed Pink Anti Freeze on the back of the engine. It was dry and I have not noticed any puddles on the drive. It has been using a little water so presume I a very small leak somewhere. Any ideas where it is leaking and a simple way to gain access to have a look :-/

Omega General Help / Power Steering

« on: 02 December 2008, 20:24:33 »

Hi
Have probs with power steering. I have noticed clicking noise when it is on full lock. So tonight did what someone else had mention on the site, turned it from lock to lock holding it in each lock for a few seconds.

Well it felt like something had slipped, as steering went all heavy but sorted itself out again after a few seconds

Only trouble being the steering is all heavy when engine is not revd above tick over. I checked the fluid and that seems fine. the car is fine when it is being driven though.

Your help please

Cheers
Morty :-/
oh yes it a 2.5 on W reg 68000

Had the same prob myself with my previous omega. Over come the alarm prob by opening rear passenger door and pushing the lock down on the inside of drivers door. The alarm never went off again. Its just another way of overcoming it.

Omega General Help / Back end noises!!!

« on: 14 November 2008, 20:08:01 »

I have noticed a metalic click noise when decelerating coming from the back end, its got new springs on the back. also a fluttering noise at low speed. if i apply the handbrake slightly, it stops. The rear brakes have only just been inspected though, and mechanic said they were okay.
Has any body got any ideas what these noises could be.
Cheers
Morty
