  • Oil and water – Omega makes care….

    Hello people my Omega makes me worry straight… He loses oil and water… the thing with the oil I had already a few weeks ago, there came the message “Check the oil level” and after about 1.5-2 liters the message was gone, the staff covered again and everything well until now. I have filled the cooling water now for the third time already. Every 3-4 days (drive in the time approx. 150-250km) I have to refill again 250-500ml so that the board computer does not scream again for cooling water. Today on the way home from Munich came the message with the oil level again… so immediately down and stopped… from the engine room came a little bit white smoke… smells of the steamed cooling water…that probably comes out somewhere and landing on the engine… I could still hear it for a while because the cooling water seems to have become too warm – when opening the lid everything came to me, of course slowly opened up and when I noticed it to turn right back again… normal should not cook… the resty ride went problemless… oil I would have filled up again 1.5 liters of oil would have been about 1500 times.

  • Ui Ui Ui Nasse feet

    Moin (blubb) ^^ Get straight into the car, start, the ventilation gurgles and into the passenger room so pour 1 1/2 liters of water. Has the whole night heavily rained with us and the car stood with the snout slanting up the slope. After first heart attack, fingers into the broth, tasted off, … … so I think that is not cooling water, but comes from the rain. Normal is also immediately the disc white smeared from the inside when it is cooling water. Does anyone know where the drain openings are sitting in the front spray wall area? Go look once it stops raining. Just a little panic that harms the water of the electronics in there…

  • Omega B – Radio – NCDC2013/15 CD changer detects CD rare

    Hello forum community I have recently the problem that my cd changer recognizes the same cd and sometimes not. Example: I push the magazine in and recognize the CD 2 and 3. So far so well, then I repeat the process and recognize CD 1 und 2 or only 2, then again all four, actually there is no system.Fact, if he recognizes it he also plays it off perfectly. Before now the statements come “that has something to do with self-burned CDs above with the speed of burning” I read everything in the FAQ.Brenne with 4x and also have ne Orginal CD which he does not recognize but the copy I have burned he immediately recognizes. What can that be???? I can’t imagine that that has to do with the burning speed. Also I can’t make the laser responsible, because he reads it perfectly when the CD is recognized. Then I recognize all four and two days later, without what to change (by radio) he ignores the problem so much more than two, I have found the same thing again.

  • Engine damage on my 2.5 DTI ?

    Was on the Sunday on the way home like my Omega suddenly after 30km no more gas had accepted. There came smoke from the oil cover and at the air filter box. He was then dragged to the workshop and the turbocharger looked, but this should be ok. But he probably could also have let oil through. What could he have had? A buddy said a crack in the piston, had had had them with the BMW of the series more often. No engine lights went on or so and he can also start. Had to drive by train to home and let the Omega stand there.

  • Engine X20SE runs unround

    Servus, have a question….or several of my Omi since I cleaned the throttle valve very unround. MKL goes on more often, but again. Oil filter of the 16V in the crankshaft venting is already installed. Plug all pulled, cleaned and plugged more often. Liquids all in order. Tubes all clean and flasheblank. Intake tracked with start pilot sprayed, no fluctuations. Today I found that my Omi from the oil filling opening “qualts” after I opened them. I still have the assumption that it is the oil spills which are led into the throttle valve. Now my first question: when I read the fault memory I have to pre-clamp the battery? how long does the control device notice the error messages? I can also read the error memory when the engine runs (does not have an ODB device) Office cling method… My second question: does a defective, undichter exhaust (end sound silencer) to the engine run noticeably high? 16 error code – no error rate – 24 – no voltage change of the battery.

  • Interior Quality Omega B Facelift – Review?

    Good evening together, I’m on my way in a lot of long distance soon and seriously think about getting an Omega B Facelift. Today I put myself at the dealer around the corner times in a limousine (2.2 Dti, Bj 02, 178 Tkm) and was a bit disappointed by the interior quality. Admittedly, the car did not make a well-kept impression all around, but I noticed that the door linings were quite scratched, the light switch and the keys for the NSW sat relatively clappy in their frames, the center console knarze when pressing on the wooden frame and the ashtray only half drove out and sat quite clappy in its bracket. Everything only made a semi-solid impression. Are you on average satisfied with the processing of your Omegas? How does this look like with you? It would be my first Opel, I was previously in a Passat Bj 02. Is it very enthusiastic about the face lift time of the B Omega “sprünge” in the processing quality, so that there are improvements from a certain production period? There is a difference in this between the noise level of 4 and the rest of the cylinder?

  • Calibra battery does not charge

    My buddy has a Calibra with the 8V engine in it bj. 92 and he ran 114tkm. After that we changed the V-belt and he wanted to push the bolt in the bottom of it mine he that it has lightly sparked (yes next time we make the battery off). Since the charge no longer the battery. We have already another used Lima built in and with it is the same problem. Tomorrow we will try another one again. Pathogen power gets him. The control lamp lights up a I haven’t tested them yet. I hope you can help me, but maybe we’re just bad luck and both are screwed.

  • high consumption c20xe

    Hello, I need some help, I’ve had an increased verb with my Astra GSI 16v for a long time with short distance/city traffic. In the past this was always 8.5 liters. Now I’m at 11liters. Today I’ve only driven long distance 300km with ca120-130Km/h, there’s the consumption in order: 6.5liters. I’ve been driving the car for 10 years now: Astra GSI 16V Bauj.1993 C20XE Motonik 2.8 KM:Stand 233000KM were renewed: Air mass meter, Lamda probe, Thermostat, Termofühler both, cranks I have the impression that the engine is running too fat. Where is the idle control valve for the engine? The design is different than with the Ecotech engine. Can you clean it? Unfortunately, I did not find anything suitable with the search function. I will also put the same post into the Calibra forum again, so that many people can help me, hope this is ok for you…. Gru ß Sid

  • Water temperature indicator

    Hello, my temperature indicator is always about 2mm above the blue area. Where does it stand with you? 2,0l NE motor. I think that’s way too low and maybe the thermostat that opens the big cooling circuit is always open. Drive the Calibra only recently and don’t know it any different from it. Michael
