Omega General Help / Omega 2.6 CDX Lumpy tickover, Emission light on

« on: 17 October 2010, 12:11:10 »

Hello,
I wondering if you guys can help me out on a problem I have with my vauxhall omega 2.6 CDX Auto which has done 86000 miles. The problem I have with my car has a lumpy tickover and the emission light is on and some times when driving this emission light will set the engine management light on putting the car in limbo mode.
I have taken it to my local garage and they have put it on a diagnostic and have change the coil pack and spark plugs and reset it. They have check the lambda sensors and they say they are fine but the problem is still there and has not been cured. Now there have been no diagnostic codes stored so its trail and error. The garage has mention to me that they have done all the little checks and now they have mention about a full engine rebuild to cure the problem. That idea almost gave me a heart attack. Lots of threads on here point to the idle control valve but would'nt that show up on the diagnostic ? Any help and ideas will be greatly appreciated Dave.
