  • Opel Omega 2.5 suitable for me?

    Good day, through Googlei I have come to this site and many of the illusions I had before have already been taken away from me. Actually, I am looking for a long-distance car for about 5200km in the month, should be a diesel, inconspicuous and reliable. Inconspicuous I should write large letters. I am looking for the car for my girlfriend who has to drive twice in the week about 650km. Our price range is about 600€. What makes the search not easy. n for the money is no problem.. but I think that the small car is quickly at the end when it was beaten over the track for a few months. So I came across the Opel with BMW engine via a BMW. Like the BMW also the Omega should be a well running long-distance car. Google then showed me that there are quite Omega ́s with 500,000km. So far so good, when I arrived here and was thrown at with quite simple (no screwdriver) it was m and I thought that I had to get “personal” advice (this thread). have read a lot about the TD and TDI variants and about the susceptibility of the two. In short: I need a car in the price range where not much has to be screwed. I can still get to change a lamp, but with a transmission it will be difficult to find out about it. Would an Omega with 150,000km, 2000er bj, automatic, be suitable for our long distances Are we now more likely to be discouraged or advised, since we have no options to screw (know, place, time)?

  • Cooling water loss on 2.5 TD

    Hello everybody! Our Omega has always used some water for several years (0.5 l/10,000 km). But now I have to refill half a litre of water every week (after about 300 km). The pressure of the cooler has not shown any fault. There is also no liquid leak under the car or anywhere else to see. There is no oil film visible on the cooling water and no bubbles when the engine is running. Where can the cooling water loss have its cause? Does anyone have an idea? and above all – can you go on like this? Does a means “cooler-proof” or similar help, or should you dare to do so? Many greetings omegafan 7

  • Problems in petrol operation

    Hello Sportstfeunde, I have a problem with my Ommi! Every now and then he doesn’t want to drive on petrol. Then he starts normal, jumps normally to gas and if I want to switch it off and start again, then he doesn’t jump on petrol anymore. Then I can only start with gas, so he runs well. When I switch to petrol, he goes out again. It seems to me that something doesn’t agree with the fuel supply. Pump and pump relays I switched, did not bring anything. Gib The MKL doesn’t glow. The purple relay at the top left is for the fuel pump, isn’t it? I’m grateful for every tip!

  • Car doesn’t start anymore

    Hello Have a big problem. Last night I turned off my Omega completely normal without any problems. This morning I wanted to go again and it did not start any more. When I wanted to read out the error code I noticed that the bulb was defective. I then changed it, and read out. Fc 1 19 speed sensor false signal Fc2 135 engine malfunction warning light voltage too low Fc3 144 immobilizer No signal Fc4 145 immobilizer false signal Fc 135 I think you can close because I changed the lamp. 144 & 145 took the contact key with the transponder, but it doesn’t work either, don’t know if it was already a defect. How can you check the number sensor, and is the sensor of the KWS? Need penetrating help. MfG Majo

  • Rebuild roof antenna !!!!

    Hello Omi municipality!!! Maybe you can help me further??? I would like to exchange the original antenna (standart AM/FM-GSM) for an AM/FM-GPS antenna. Today I ran and dismantled the panel and looked for the strippings as they are actually usual, but I found only from the antenna two lines which are equipped with screw couplings (FME) and the power connection is completely missing. On the attached photo my antenna is only that I have no GSM connection because i The problem now is that I can’t get the two strippers out far enough and then they disappear in the sheet metal. Do you know where the lead continues ????? If I make it tomorrow I will take photos of the original antenna. I am grateful for every answer!!!!! Vehicle Omega B 2.2 Facelift Built 2001

  • Looking for help with the vehicle choice MV6 buy? Or diesel?

    Hello! The following problem: Need another vehicle: space for 2 adults and three children. In addition, I travel 1-2 times a week in a carpool to work 120km and 120km. 90% highway So about 30,000km should come around there every year. My Budged is thus at max. 6000 Euro. My consideration is to buy an MV6 caravan and then have it converted to gas. 2500 Euro for the conversion and 3500 Euro for the car. Do you prefer to choose a VFL or facelift? The facelifters cost a little more, besides, my wife likes the inside of the VFL better. I definitely want the X30XE because of the cheaper parts and exchange motors (Y32SE too expensive and rare) The X25XE is the cheapest, but very difficult to get with Navi, Tempomat, seat heating and leather. Or a caravan 2.5 DTI, but you have to equip it again with a particle filter. And they only go at 6000 Euro. Let’s go. Alternative: Vectra C Caravan Cheap is the 3.0CDTI to get, but in maintenance too expensive and also without particulate filters (the low costs) The 1.9CDTI costs from 7000 euros. I heard the diesel price should be higher and rise. Perhaps even as high as gasoline car gas is quite cheap until 2018. Which car would you recommend to me? Thanks and greeting… …Frank

  • ABS control unit

    Hello Opel fans, I’ve been driving Opel-Omega-Caravan since 1988 and drove 50 to 70,000 km a year, but I haven’t experienced such mistakes yet. I used to change the car every 2 to 4 years and drove max. 250,000 with an Omega, but now my current “Opel- Omega-Caravan 3.0” – built in March 2000. For a few days, the control lamps “ABS” + “TC” light up, but go out again and again, then again, a nice game. The game has only two significant disadvantages – k a display of the speed and thus the navigator out of function. The speedometer indicator is not the worst problem yet, because there is still a tachometer, but the failure of the navigator is damn annoying. The workshop of Opel Dello is also quite perplexed and have been looking for several hours, but everything only conjectures. Presently claim “ABS control unit” defective, material costs 1.185,95 EUR + assembly approx. 1,500 EUR. My guess that it is only a wheel sensor, becomes two But no one can find any evidence of the error, i.e. helplessness with the screwdrivers, which all have very little idea of Electronik. Now I have read several articles that this error hardly occurs, which partly resolves itself and since it is really only a sensor, but by the ignorance of the screwdrivers the errors cannot be determined correctly. Since someone can gain experience, someone knows a real helper etc., because before I 1500 I would like to try a lot more to throw out the window. mfg Karlheinz Gutter mail “[email protected]

  • HELP!! My Omi stutters during the ride!!! Why???

    When I went home from night duty this morning, my omi started to stutter with one time. It worked out so that without any previous signs he no longer accepted gas and wanted to go out. By shutting down or also repeatedly pressing the gas pedal everything became normal again. This problem occurred a few times. But always only sporadic. So from the feeling I think that he gets no more gas or any more The MKL does not work. Everything is normal except for these dropouts. I urgently need advice on what it might be. I have to work with it every day and am instructed on my little one. I thank you already once in advance for a quick help. Greetings Lapi281
