Omega General Help / i dont believe it

« on: 07 April 2009, 23:09:07 »

i joined this site hoping to be embraced by the people who drive omega's of all shape's and sizes, i asked a geniune question about my car having problems and did anyone have advice for me but all i got was 1 response that my head gasket has gone-after reading several of your members queries it seems head gaskets going are rare on v6's,and it was probably hbv-maybe my face doesn't fit.i'll probably not sign in again just look in the manual its not as clicky.
