Introduction
« on: 26 February 2010, 12:40:14 »
Just wanted to say Hi.
I have seen the forum several times on the net but only just registred.
I currently I have 2 Omegas and prior to that a Carlton. I'm British but moved to Austria about 2 years ago to live and work, so my current car is an Opel Omega 3.2 Executive. Getting to the stage now that I'm starting to spend out on my 3.2 and will be looking for help and advice to save myself some money. Example: Took it to the Opel dealer with a suspected oil leak. They could'nt find anything seriously wrong but said there was a small leak from the camshaft seal, oh and whilst we do that they would change the timing belt for me. I said how much. They said 700 Euro. I said your having a laugh. How much are the parts. He said about 350 Euro's. I said I'd by them myself and only pay the labour. I know its a big job but I know I can buy a timing kit fir about 70 GBP. Why do dealer insist in trying to rip you on parts.  >:( Anyway, here I am so hello everybody.
