  • tips omega b

    hello, I’m looking for an omega b 2.0 16 v caravan. since I’m a little short of cash, the car won’t be very expensive. I drove an omega a 2.6 years ago and was more than satisfied with the car. except wear parts I never needed anything. now I want to know how this is with the omegas. are the reasonably reliable? and what do I have to pay special attention to when buying? are the freewheelers? our opel dealer advised me not to use the omega w because he had one himself and only had problems. but I can’t imagine that somehow. for tips and answers I would be very grateful to you.

  • What ground for spatula mass???

    Hi guys, I sanded a few rust spots away and now I have to spat. But I think I have to have heard the spatula mass attracts water and stores. How can I keep the water away from the coach so that the rust under the crowd does not come back to me??? Greetings

  • Blue Tacho to Dark

    Hello first my Omi B Facelift Bj. 08/2000 Caravan Sport. I ordered the conversion kit for the Tacho at Blue Tacho but had to find out that it was too dark. After feedback with the support Blue Tacho they recommended these to me : http://www.blauertacho4u.de/…/…andlichter-W5W-BA9S-Superhell.html. Now I think I will be the ones to Heiss ? Can I build it ? Unfortunately I could not answer it either. Thank you in advance.

  • Interior smells like Maggie from u

    I have an Omega B V6. Since I changed my Vdd to the right, I have the feeling that sometimes my interior smells like cooling water. It is only for about 10 seconds. I have already removed the glove compartment and everything is dry. If I hold my nose on the passenger side in the footroom to the center console, it smells like this Maggie smell. But not always. Slices don’t fog either. I took my carpet up and caught it under the foam and everything is dry. On the driver’s side it doesn’t smell and there is also the carpet and the foam dry. Has the feeling that it always smells briefly when the fans run. Cooling water is not really missing. If the heat exchanger was defective, it would always smell and be moist, wouldn’t it?

  • ? Opel Grandland X Facelift ?

    Hi, wanted to ask if maybe something is already known, if from the middle/end of next year, when the production starts in Eisenach comes a facelift!? I would basically be interested: – Comes an LED matrix light as in the Insignia B/Astra K – follows a head-up display – there will be a digital tacho like in the Insignia B / Peugeot 3008 / Peugeot 5008 – comes another OPC line interior with black roof sky as well as columns and OPC sports leather steering wheel With the Peugeot this is e Available. – Will be available at some point sports seats, or more beautiful patterns/seat cushions than there are now. White garnets what’s going on with the Opel designers or developers. The seat covers that are currently on the market are poop-ugly, are the approximately 73 or 81 years old One can only look at the reference to the Combo Life Innovation. – a newer multimedia/Navi, where the touchscreen reacts faster and responds more quickly.

  • Experience with Grandland 1.5 D AT

    Dear community, I am wearing the Grandland as 1.5 D with automatic (is it new as AT anyway). How are your experiences with the vehicle, especially with regard to the engine/gear station wagon. Can you pull a caravan with the car, or will you become a walking dune? It’s a pity that there is no more 2.0 D, but that’s something to get used to. (keyword CO2 emissions) I would be very happy about a few experiences.

  • Error codes in the Grandland X Meaning

    Hello. Can someone here in the OBD forum tell me what meaning all the error codes have on my Grandland X. Read out with ScanDoc, can delete the error codes, but always appear again. To this extent everything works, also the update, system and map material for the multimedia system I got installed with a trick. Or can it be that there is a software weakness in the system or a mass point problem?? Have times attached the protocol. I am grateful for known error codes. Greeting Werner

  • Cladding A-pillar

    Hello Together, in principle I am very satisfied with our Grandland (innovation with leather package) and still enthusiastic about both quality and workmanship. Everything is cleanly processed, no flapping, creaking, creaking or squeaking. I noticed only one thing about the car (but you have to look very carefully!), with other Grandlands (including Ultimate), which the dealer had standing on the yard, also: The paneling of the A-pillar at the transition to the roof sky is visible on both sides (driver and passenger) and has apparently no clean / flush finish to the roof sky or door seal. Is that also so with your Grandlands, or does this only hit a certain batch of vehicles (until 12/2017)? Many (still enthusiastic) greetings and nice weekend, Josl

  • Scattered disc + strange noise in the engine compartment

    Hey guys, about 3 -4 weeks ago I had my interior mirror glued back to me in the Opel workshop because this one just hung down in the morning. The in the workshop hams also only on the 2nd start made the part to cardboard because it is a bit heavy and clunky (automatically dimmes the light, doesn’t know what the technical term for it is). Yesterday evening my father comes home and thinks I should look the mirror is off again and the disc over I thought he was joking because the chin was stupid when I had the car relatively new and it was in the workshop because of such stupidity. So below you see the pictures I thought I was crazy! So I went off into the thick ship and to the workshop. Of course calmly and objectively asks for the boss, who already came to meet me and said tell jetz not your mirror is off again… .. the thing looked at was astonished that something goes on. He explained this to me can be due to the temperature fluctuations, or to the 2 phase glue they used. Well, on the question of what we wanted to do the jetz he turned me on we do about Teilkasko and the workshop takes over the excess…. I don’t have a partkasko he means no problem he knows the insurance agent with whom I am. Which means I would pay more money in insurance and he gets away cheaply. My question is now if he is obliged to reimburse me a new disc + the mirror, or that again in order to brin point 2 is when the engine is cold one hears a strange noise quite loud I don’t know it would call a buffing sound n a bit like if someone is sitting on a Harley and gives a little bit of gas in idle. As soon as the engine is warm the noise is hardly audible anymore. Unfortunately, up to now, it didn’t have the possibility/time to look at it. Tap hole in the cracker or a slightly open bell or something. If anyone has an idea or it knows or tell me anyway I can look at what I should pay special attention to when I look at it while I am very connected:P. A lot of text by little I know ^^ Thank you for your help and because of my sought-after summer tires have atm (235 45R17) Winter tires I look at it in the threads like this or if someone has a tip for my ship gladly by message to me Thank you for your help the new Omi driver Andy
