  • Replace clutch or complete gearbox

    The clutch of my 20-year-old Omegas seems to give up the spirit soon. Well, I’m not quite sure because especially at temperatures of -6° the gears are very difficult to insert. Even in neutral position, the formwork lever is difficult to move. That points to the gearbox. Now I’m not sure if only the clutch or the whole gearbox should be changed. With my 2.4i I already had the clutch changed. could you change the gearbox and the clutch yourself if you don’t have any experience with it yet? Does the gearbox of a 91er fit in my 88er c20ne?

  • MV6 various problems

    Hello, I have a few problems with my Omega B MV6 Caravan Automatik 134tkm Bj.95, which would be there: – The MKL always goes to as soon as I give no more gas, no matter whether country road or city trip, it goes out again and again but sometimes it takes a longer time 3-4 minutes. – Sometimes the speeds are most noticeable when I drive through a 30s zone. and now the worst when I refuel the Omega I can drive ONLY 490KM what I find very little is or is the V6 drinking so much? I hope someone can help me, I haven’t had the error memory read out yet. Thank you very much in advance.

  • Electrical problem?

    Hello, after I had the problem this week to get my car on due to empty battery I have a new problem. The battery was completely empty.. So bridged up and so on etc. Now I noticed that the automatic of the windows no longer works. So so far it was so that you press briefly…and hold down..that the windows then go up and down to the hit, so you can take the finger away.. goes automatically. That’s no longer possible at all… if I put the finger away, the window will stop.. what’s going on wrong again?

  • 2.5 TD suddenly doesn’t start, shit like that.

    Moin guys, I need your help again. I’ve been towed three times by the ADAC in 8 weeks because of different things. I was going to crash soon. The first time it was a leaky cooler. Fortunately, I noticed the error so early that the critical temperature was not reached. On the same occasion I changed the water pump. After that my thermo problem was finally gone. 200 EUR for the new cooler, 21 EUR for the water pump. mpe with aluminium shovel wheel. After both was new, I could finally drive full throttle again with temperatures around 94°, without loss of power on the mountain. Then the differential was broken, as in another thread wrote. After the new Diff it felt at 180 km/h, as if someone was taking the gas away. But at least without noises. This morning I drove to work quite normally, parked the car muzzle ahead on the mountain. About 20 liters in the tank. After work the car jumped d I had to get the ADAC. No diesel arrived. Assuming the 20 l problem, we dropped 5 l diesel, without success. With the start pilot it was noticed that the car wanted to start, but then it did not. The relays were already pushed, but they also did not attract better. My plan is the following: – Recharge battery. – Recharge 10 litres of diesel. – Then the 20 l problem should either have been solved. Do you have any advice on how to proceed if it’s not the 20-litre problem?

  • Timing belts

    Hello to all hobby screwdrivers. Before I ask a FOH I would rather turn to you, who probably know better than some mechanics. Can exist the possibility that the timing belt jumps around one or two teeth and the engine, X30XE, without taking any damage, runs on the valves, and just listens a little rougher and runs restlessly in the stationary gas. I also do not really notice a performance loss. Thank you in advance – MfG Ernst
