  • Turbo dissipation

    So, it’s not a hose leaking, now I got the tip to change the oil, because the turbo is running with fresh oil lubrication and it comes to the drop-outs because the viscosity and the abrasion could cause these drop-outs? Besides, if it’s cold no turbo works, as soon as it has the 12° C it is almost problem-free?!?! I really don’t know anymore Sorry, wanted to answer my started topic Turbo drop-outs actually, should not be – now h old again as a new topic Thanks for numerous answers. Greetings Geri

  • Omega B – Seats – FL very uncomfortable, more comfortable with the VFL?

    Is the Omega B VFL more comfortable than the FL? I drove an Omega B of 96 times about 10 years ago. The seats, as well as all the driving comfort, were like a driving living room compared to the FL. The FL, however, feels so “hard” as if I was sitting in a golf. Whether from comfort or from the seats. Technically, the FL should be in order. it got 3 months ago new TÜV. In the same train I also have a little the front axle What does this mean for me? – New tyres – New crossbars – New track bars ( complete ) – New coupling rods A axle measurement has been carried out of course. A lowering is not available. The car is driven on 195/65/15 tyres. On which tires the VFL drove, however, I do not remember any more. This is too long ago. But the seats alone are already more than uncomfortable compared to the VFL at that time. I don’t know now, that the VFL has had any special seats. They looked quite normal to me. Do you have any advice on what to do about them? Do you have other seats? Certain manufacturers in the area of axle parts? Thanks for your answers. I’m really curious. Because I don’t really call this “progress” in the sense of a facelift.

  • Omega B – Y22XE – VDD?

    Good evening friends. The Omega B Bj 2001 from my brother-in-law has a problem with the VDD. When I looked at the engine compartment today, I looked like a pig into the clockwork. I have already changed seals – indeed at BMW and not at Opel – but I am a bit confused with the model. 1. The lid can not only be held by the 10 screws? 2 I assume that the bar has to be folded out to the left. Is there any trick in this one? feeling that the plastic is already breaking if I just look at it wrong. 3 is there something “hidden” that I should pay attention to there? Although my brother-in-law has a “So wird’s wird’s” book, but none found any clues about the VDD. Do you have a few tips on how to do it best? Greetings

  • Remodeling Omega B – X30XE to Y32SE – is that possible?

    Hello, everybody! I’ve learned by the way that the basic substance of the two engines is the same, and they both have the same cylinder capacity. So you could practically “just change the components that make the 3.0l 3.2l, or not? The torque becomes stronger and the power output also. What else than the crankshaft has been changed in the re-configuration? What is needed to make a 3.0l 3.2, does the one/r know?

  • Omega B – Can the Y25DT AT transmission be used on the V6?
