Newbie again.
« on: 19 March 2011, 10:05:20 »
Hi Chaps.

Well my last Omega didn't last very long unfortunately.

Recently I got another one though. It's a 2001 2.6 CD auto saloon. Done 67000 miles and in very good condition.

I have acquired a towbar for it and I need to remove the rear bumper in order to fit it. Is there a "how to" for this ?

Also I need to give it a service as it was last done a year ago. Are there any specific oils etc that you guys reccomend ?

Cheers
Mark.

Hiya Mark & Welcome  :y
Yes there is mention of removing the bumper in the Maintenance Section, have a look for 'fitting reversing sensors'. Also the recommended oil is VX 10WX40. :y

Welcome to the forum, wouldn't have thought you needed to remove the rear bumper to fit a towbar.
