Just got back from the scappy. The only Mig they had was completely stripped >:(

Couple of 2.5 Vectras and a Calibra. Also missing MAF. :'(

Car drove without fault there and back. So it can all wait.

Anyone used an EBAY MAF yet?

I have, and it lasted about 2 weeks before my EML came back on. Only cost 30 quid though, I'll try another one. Other people on here have tried them with success though  :y

Cheers.
I think I can give £30 a go on an Ebay MAF.

Just one more point. Should my EML light remain on.

As I pointed out it come on for a few minutes yesterday, then went off, and has not relit since. I know these error codes stay untill they have around 20 clean starts.

Does it light when you put ignition on? If not, could be the bulb blown. If it does, I wouldn't worry about it too much at the moment  :y

there is a scrap yard on e-bay cannot remember his name but he has lots of parts, he dont list a lot but would give him a call, dose good prices think he sold 3.0 engine for £90 and bloke could not praise him enough, and that was droping it of for him, he usually advertises as omegas breaking for spares. :y

I would contact Darth Loo- Knee or Markey Mark and ask if they have a known good used genuine MAF for sale. :y
And then buy the Lexus 400. 10 times the car an Omega will ever be imo. Apart from mpg and servicing costs. ;)

I have one here mate for a v6...can take the one off my car and send it to you for £20 delivered and put the spare one on mine so you know you have a goodun :y

28-30mpg on a run is about right for a v6...my 3.0 reports its averaging 34mpg on a 200 mile trip!
