  • Omi pulls to the right – what else can it be?

    Hello together, Since the purchase of my big one I have the problem that it pulls to the right. Track rods are already new inside, couplers and still something at the VA was renewed when I bought the car. The track has now been set for the 3rd time in a year. The values are always set exactly to 0, so in the green area. After the measured it is always almost gone and after a. 2000-2500km it comes back slowly. Somehow everything seems to adjust itself. A The first time it was made on guarantee, the second time at the tyre dealer of my trust and now for the third time at the FOH. But now I am at the end. It starts to get really annoying slowly. Above all, it becomes so strong again that he could drive alone in the circle if you let go of the steering wheel…. Does anyone have any idea what that could be? The FOH could not tell me anything more about it. Had that looked at but it meant it was all Ok, d a the most important thing is new, which could be responsible for it… I’ve heard of several omidrivers who have the same problem, but not as much as I seem to have… help… thank you very much… greetings

  • Question of purchase Second car Fiat Tipo

    Servus guys, sometimes something else. I’m looking for a cheap second car just for the work. He should cost max. 600 euros (with tuv). After equestrian rust mills (Ford, Opel, Mazda and Peugeot) I came across a Fiat Tipo. The car has Tüv until 2012/08 and is sooooooooo times with pinched eyes quite ok. I looked at it and noticed a few small defects. Oil sensor (should be the oil pressure sensor) is leaking, hardly the engine was dripping out cheerfully. (Ebay 12 ,- Eur) Possibly valve cover seal leaks, it is in the upper area a little damp and engine block well siffic but not fresh oily. Exhaust has a hole in the rear silencer and should be welded. Here the Link Fiat Tipo Mobile had an expert at the side, he meant the car was from the basic substance and I should take a little action and take. What do you think? I already posted in the Fiat forum but there is hardly any answer

  • Omega B doesn’t start at all, even normal!

    Hello, I’m new here and would need some help…. First of all to the car, is an Omega B Caravan 2.0 16v 100KW bj 94 petrol. And yes SUFU has found a lot and still can’t get any further! To the problem: Since two days the Opel starts either normal or not at all?! Heist, if I’m lucky he starts normal and I can also drive normally, No problems or error messages. Yesterday to the shopping turned off and (after 15min) nothing more (starter turns, but not even the smallest stutter n), then let go and after about 500m he came again running and then starts again normal…. In the evening again a round without problems! I noticed then yesterday that he only muks when I start right away (not wait until the lamps go out) is however not clear to me why this should be bad with the petrol guy?! So yesterday worked the whole day without problems without problems… This morning in “Eile” of course too fast = dead = drag. Then pay extra attention and still after the 3 start again dead… Let’s mention that he ignites briefly at the start (only at the first attempt) on 2-3 pötten short run (5-10seconds) before he lies down then, then no more rain until towing (partly 500m-2km!) Have looked here and tried to work already before, I have the two relays (fuel pump and Einspitza. believe k43-44 they were called) changed times and also at the start bridged (each the wide) also with it no life sign… Towing… Fuel pump is strangely never to be heard, but go from the point of view, otherwise it would also cause problems after towing?! Everything else but also…. I don’t understand… Maybe someone here has had something similar? Whether it is relevant, I don’t know, but I parked the good last week with almost empty tank (shown still 130km left) on a mountain and when I wanted to leave again after an hour, I couldn’t meh r started (came only 2-3 times on 2-3 pötten then rest) had to drag him, then he ran again without any problems! Was there the first time that showed the error! Ohso, answers please not too technical, I am laie 😉 Mfg OSKAR

  • Selling Omega

    Hello community, I have a problem. I offered my Omega for sale at Ebay because I had an accident at the beginning of the year. I listed all the defects I know and also wrote in that I sell him as an accident car / spare part donor. Now I get two messages from the highest bidder. I should call all defective ones. Since I am not a mechanic I can only write what I know. Therefore also sell as an accident car etc. Answer from him was then there s I should call again all defective ones he buys the car in any case. And then turns out still defective or defects I did not mention he wants to sue me for damages. Do not know now how I should behave after all written without warranty / guarantee because it is a accident car. Did not answer him yet. Should I lock him and/or report ebay? Greeting Zony

  • Valve cover can not be detached from the cylinder head?! 2.0 16 V (enug dismantled???)

    Hello guys, I’m just changing the valve cover seal on 2 Ltr 16 V. But I have the problem now that this (damn) lid does not detach itself from the cylinder head Did I forget anything to rob? – The 10 small Inbuss screws are out. – The hoses (3 pcs) I have removed. – The timing belt covering I solved upper area and the wiring including channel pushed up. – all 4 candle connectors are out too. I don’t want to use brute force n, since only light metal… With the previous cars where I made this kind of reperature the lid was immediately loose… Does anyone else have a tip that I can use? Thanks and greetings, Matze

  • Problems with water/oil cooler Automatic transmission 2.2 Petrol

    Hello dear Omega fans.I’m addressing you today with a request. The following problem.My water cooler has a little tension crack in the plastic and is slightly leaking. So new cooler ordered and what does not fit wrong! Cooler reclaimed new ordered does not fit again. My screwdriver hammered you order that and what comes, does not fit again. To the problem.Since my Ommi has an AT, he also has an oil cooler, which however BEFORE the water cooler is screwed. Problem.All 3 coolers delivered so far do not have the 4 mounting holes that I need to screw the oil to the water cooler. Yesterday I then phoned Kurt for 1 hour and we were able to clarify it so far that we now know that I am sent one of the x20xev with INTEGRED oil cooler all the time. My plan is now to use the also and attach the two pipes to the cooler and moth my seperate oil cooler. Since I now 3 times the fa I think that Opel might have fitted it. And here I come with my request to you. So if you have a Facer with 2.2 and AT please look at which cooler you have integrated or extra. Hang on a few more pictures.

  • Refitting lock differentials

    Can someone tell me how elaborate (work effort) it is to insert a lock into the rear axle differential. Is it an automatic lock or is it electrically switched on (my already having seen a TC switch with a separate lock button). If the latter is the case, are the cables already lying? Thanks already for the answers.

  • Omega B II 2.0 DTI speed ???

    My Omega BII Caravan 2.0 DTI Bj.2000 100PS and 179Tkm on the clock, which is really difficult at the moment. The problem of the underpressure lines is well known and there is always something with you as OMI drivers. But for some time now, he only wants to reach the 160 km/h with difficulty. In doing so, all filters have been renewed and light candles have also been used. Maybe someone knows advice and can give you a tip. I thank you already. Now the manor

  • No oil on the trackstick.Is there another engine damage?

    For some time now my engine “tikkerte” always.Bin then in the workshop.Wold to go straight to the place the oil control light went on, but immediately again out. Oil level looked, no oil on the trackstick . Was then immediately filled up and afterwards also tikkern was gone.Logic, now I am smarter. But had no abnormalities with the temperature and the indicator light never flashed before. Did I now still expect an engine damage or am I again with a blue eye of it. I was now told that the engine can still give up the spirit in the next 2000 KM, only after that the danger would be over. I am so stupid and now really unsure if the engine can still fly around my ears. The tikkern is gone, it runs quite calmly and also nothing else I noticed. Has anyone had the problem already? And yesterday I also ran a deer in front of the car, will still wacky thanks and love greetings from the sheep

  • Omega B 2.5 DTI – 5.Gang jumps out when accelerating – possible causes?

    Hi, with my Omega B 2.5 DTI with 5-speed manual transmission I had to make today at the mileage of 252,000 km on the highway the statement that the 5th gear jumps out suddenly when accelerating (shift lever jumps into the middle position). At the first time you still think that you have not inserted the gear correctly (unlikely, but at least possible), but if it happens then suddenly with every acceleration, surely there must be a technical problem. – 4 are completely normal when accelerating. Did any of you ever have this problem and can say something about the possible causes? I’m going to tap on a problem with the switchbar…
