  • Irregular clacking from the passenger side?

    Hello, my Omega just surprised me negatively again. I put the key in the ignition lock (engine still out), suddenly I hear an irregular cracker (about like this: krrkrrrkrkrrrrrr) from the engine compartment. The noise is very strange, hard to describe. It comes from the engine compartment from the passenger side behind the headlight, possibly from the black box behind it. If I pull the key out again, is for some time still a regular quiet noise Then KLACK (this time somewhere on the driver’s side) and the noise is gone. Please kiss me Sunday and tell me that it is nothing bad. Thank you! Xilef

  • The “friends” spin at Opel !?

    The friendly ones at Opel try to explain to me that the Omega MV6 Caravan LANGSAMER!!!!! is as the 2.0 16V !!!!!!!!!! In case: I bought my 2nd MV6 from 4 weeks. Well maintained, 110000km, Bj 96 ,Automatic and with an original AT engine with 10,000 km. The box (Sorry, but I’m pissed!) runs according to Tacho 215, which are (stopped and calculated (1km suf of the BAB) ) exact 202 km/h. The friendly can detect no errors – you know that yes, plug reader and no error co Is shown – was yesterday with Lexmaul on the test bench – so about 188 HP – but how do I find the lost horses and how do I bring the friendly to take over the repair (12 mon. guarantee!) The friendly says, “There were problems with the MV6 and they don’t run faster!!” That’s so! There’s nothing to do. But the car is otherwise great and I don’t like to give it back – also I want to show it to the friendly. I hope for your help!! Skidive – MV6 since 1999

  • tailgate does not open

    Hello together, last week I bought a Omaga B Caravon Built 94, i.e. with infrared immobilizer, and already a problem! At the seller the central locking function including tailgate still worked, when I wanted to unload the bought winter tires yesterday, the tailgate did not open any more. I tried everything: with both keys every position, extra new batteries for the key, no chance. Is there an easy way to open the flap again Is it hard to get back there: the flap to the spare wheel disturbs quite a lot… And maybe without having to try the friendly one? I’m an electromechanic, so with electrics. Thank you for every help! Inetter

  • Buying tip Facelift yes / no

    Hello guys, I am playing with the idea of purchasing an Omega Built 98 – 00. It should be an automatic transmission, like with V6 (I think the four-cylinders have with automatic too little steam) I have read here about the problems of the 2.5 respectively 3.0 L engines with timing belts or crackers. Of the latent existing drunkenness of the 2.6 and 3.2 L engines also. I tend to actually a MV6 Built 98 / 99 with approx. 100T-120T Km. Shouldn’t cost more than 9000 Euros. Or rather model year ’00 for 2000 tacken more? My question to the (un-) biased forum participants: What would you recommend? Are the motors of the facelift models more stable or you just don’t know that yet? Thank you from the snowy north cometino

  • Just a question

    It’s about my Omega B 2,5 V6 year of construction 97! If I have coolant residues under my cylinder head, you have to remove this cylinder head in order to be able to remove these residues… Do you also have to expand something on the timing belt or the various rollers?

  • Is there an ommi with 1.8 engine

  • Start time 2.5TD

    Since I installed the other engine I have started it worse. When I start “turns” the engine only 4 5 turns before it starts. Somehow I noticed the unpleasant and I think that the old engine before it made a bitch immediately sprang up when the starter turned. Maybe just imagination!! How is that with you? Have a workshop appointment on Friday because I have some little things since the conversion and the repair of the other defects After the change of track rods the car has been measured and now the steering wheel is easily wrong. I don’t like that at all. SCHLAMMPEREI must admit to the workshop that my omi was the first car on the new measuring platform. Would be nice if I knew something more precise on Friday. Saje

  • Auto sales…a topic with many question marks… 😉

    Hello OPELaner, have a general question. Has it ever happened to you that you wanted to sell a car and put it on the Internet, which of course also interested parties have registered. Unfortunately, the interested parties were 90 % strongly accentuated roommates of our beautiful republic… …the omniscience of these hobby-Kfz-experts, reached so far, that you already told me on the phone how nice was the car offered by me and I naturally I would have to go down with the price by about 40 – 50 %. during a suburban talk, then tell me that you would take him with you immediately if I would get involved in your… oh so generous offer…(as if I were going to get involved in such a thing and my car would not sign off beforehand)… …or like another who asked me to travel to Frankfurt am Main so that he could look at the car.For information, I live in Potsdam…that should be about 400 – 500 km(as if i had to go to Frankfurt am Main) …Conclusion I never again put a phone number to a car with one on the internet…at the latest after the 10 call of these professionals, I have no desire anymore and do not go to the phone, which can not be the sense either… . How are your experiences… If I just look at the thing to be hard, do I expect too much? Thank you for your attention juicey
