Omega General Help / auto gearbox light???

« on: 25 January 2011, 21:25:57 »

hi everyone
i have a 2.2i auto

i changed my gearbox oil and filter on the weekend,took it for a short drive and all was fine. the following day on the way to work it started lagging and the oil light came on.so went straight home.i checked the oil levels (im assuming it is ment to be level with the bolt on the side) which it was so i assumed it must be an air bubble from changing the oil and filter,so i added a bit extra to compensate. after driving about 50km that day the car sort of "burped" briefly and all was fine and the light went off so i thought great,untill today and about 300km of driving, the light has returned. i went straight home and check the level again,it was slightly overfull (judging from the bolt again) so returned it to just full. does anyone have any insight on this problem. the car is performing fine and changing normally.

ps. i used regular atf,i know some boxes are funny but the gearbox guys assured me regular atf is fine(did they lie?)

thanks

Omega General Help / Alternate cam belt for 2.2i ?

« on: 19 January 2011, 10:53:35 »

Hi everyone. i stay in south africa and am very limited with choice when it come to 3rd party spares, atm i can only get a cambelt from the dealer which is literally 10x more expensive than buying a 3rd party cambelt for like an astra ecotec engine.

what i am wondering is, do any of the other ecotec motors use the same cam belt ?

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks
Clint
