New with a few issues
« on: 10 January 2011, 07:44:23 »

New to a Omega, I have a 2.5TD Elite and have run in to a couple of issues.

1. I need a rear shock for the self leveling system so looking for someone that is breaking a car.

2. I also need a sensor for the self leveling sensor on the front mine has come off, I might try the elastic band trick today.

3.Any info on increasing the BHP and maybe throttle response as the car seams slow to get going.

4. I know there is a common issue with heated front seat but my rear seat (the two seat part) does not work either, proved the switch so any other help welcomed.

Also just an idea of what MPG I should get?

Thanks in advance

Neil :D

Regarding number 3 on your list, does it seem very flat up to about 2500rpm and then pick up?

Ok Number 2, sensor is on nice an tight but still I get the message, could it be anything else before I replace

Number 4, fuses ok, but I am surprised both bottom and back pads are gone, as to me they look like separate circuits

the back and the bottom heating pads are in serial connected. i got the headlight range message when a wire was intrerupted.. check all your wiring, headlight level motors also need to be checked, on a tech 2 i think it tells you exactly what is wrong :)

Where are you NP? Maybe you are close enough to one of us who has the equipment to test the headlight range system.

Then you are a very lucky man! Have a word with Kevin Wood on here (one of the Mods) as he has a genuine Tech2 and the ability to use it (unlike most Vx stealers!). He's only up the road in Alton :y

This is not a cheap fix the sensor on the bottom of the injector pump is knackered this is why it's flat and gutless :(
You could try and get the sensor but you might find it's only available to Bosch approved companys that re-con fuel pumps
