  • Opel Omega A 2.6 Dual Ram starts very hard / not starting

    Tomorrow Leutzz!!! Was on Saturday at the Schrotti and got me a new distributor cap with him. Unfortunately she was also broken. Then I changed you and now we come to the problem. Did the plugs and I had to somehow get on it again on the ignition distributor:-) So now I tried to do you in the order as you were, unfortunately it was wrong and there was a bang and above the engine (air channels) or as the thing at the top of the engine is called and qwalmt wi e crazy.And he is now also leaking at the top of the rubbers. Sorry but I couldn’t describe it better. Has just given a loud bang and where the seals are at the top of the engine(think about the valves, but I’m not sure. Motor turns but doesn’t start yet. Could you give me a tip, how or what I have to do. Or I broke the engine. Or do I just have to replace the whole stuff where Dual Ram is on it, so the complete thing s da. Thanks and sry for the unapproachable description but it is not better, so not from my side.

  • Evaporator exchange on 850 🙂

    Today it was time: the last step before the conversion from the Deltamil air conditioning system to the original Volvo system, the evaporator had to be changed. So A-Brett out, air box out and the old evaporator out (was still close only unfortunately incompatible with the Volvo system). Was also quite modified as you can see in the photo. The whole was actually after 1 1/2 hours already changed, after 2 hours the air box was also in again. Since I also (finally) order in the Elekt rik I made my way to this one, and I’m not going to finish it until tomorrow. Here are some photos of the action Thanks to Johnny for the help Greeting Cristian

  • What else can I get for my grandmother?

    Hello community, I hope I get some useful opinions from you. Is a difficult topic for you, because I want to sell my space monster Although with a tearing eye, it does not help anything, he has to go. Is now only the question I still get sold or does he have to go to the press? Although it is almost too bad for the press The data about the car are below (as it belongs here ) and in my profile there is also something to it. Why I have to get rid of it, it is I no longer have profitable work to do for me, such as: Timing belt change at 204,000 km, currently I have 201,800 km on it. Brakes rear Both door grips torn out driver/passenger side Hardy disc and middle bearing would be to change rust spots on the rear wheel runs, a “pickel” on the right rear side part and minimally under the handlebar of the rear flap. The dampers of the bonnet and rear flap are also a bit weak. The interior is still good to very good in Shot. Customer service was recently made, i.e. oil, filter, candles, luffi. In this process the Simmerring between the engine and automatic transmission was changed because of oil loss. What do you think could jump out there? Greeting, Speedy

  • Keep track width/systems/chrome wheel bolts

    Hello, my `99 TDI is supposed to get track broadening, because the track width is especially at the rear compared to my AWD (XC) somehow not quite satisfactory. I thought of a small widening, so 10 mm. per side, i.e. 20 mm. per axis. But: These systems are actually only to have with longer wheel screws, and I would lose the beautiful, long chrome bolts. -Lengther wheel bolts in chromed (if necessary without longer hexagon, then the hexagon would z was sitting further inside, but at least still chrome blinking ) in M12x1,75 there is probably not? -Which plate thickness is the narrowest, which is fixed with extra screws to the wheel hub? -The aluminium rims (perfo) have inside on the contact surface to the wheel hub so “bags”, in which overstanding screw heads would have a few millimeters additional space. If one with a Dremel etc. overstanding “Nupsis” removed, there would be even a lot of space for screw heads (1 cm about). ps? Greeting Chris

  • Electronics/voltage problems

    Hello everyone! I have a problem with my Phateon 3.0l v6 diesel first registration in 2006. And this problem came at once where my vehicle stood times 5-6 days I wanted to unlock as usual and start driving… but the opening at the door handle did not work, by radio either, the alarm lights on doors (red) do not flash! With key opened in the lock ignition on car starts immediately and then error messages like ” repair shop – nivouereglung… after 2-3 minutes is everything away again but since every time you park from the car after about 1 hour always the same problem! I ask for your help.

  • Air conditioning is not possible !

    Somehow the omi was apparently built for car mechanics or for people with higher studies, because there is no normal look through anymore. To my problem, the air conditioning was serviced and refilled about 4 months ago, now that it has become a bit warmer of course also the air conditioning comes to use with me. Yesterday, we had a change of weather, when I was outside with my dear dogilein and I arrived after the walk again at the car I turned on the omi and arrived by mistake on the ” ECO – button “, SOFORT jumped on the air conditioning and cooled down really nice, although it was not so hot outside. Of course it pleased me that it cooled so well, but today (outside beautiful warm ) I was traveling with the grandmother, today I had with full intention pressed the ” ECO – button ” (so that the lamp was off ) and look……it did GARNICHTS, he cooled the air by exactly 0. Now I wonder why I’m not stupid and I tried to see if it might be because something isn’t closed properly, so all the doors are opened and then done again, just like the sun roof, every position is tried out and finally made, even with open and closed sliding things (that’s what you can still do under the sun roof). Didn’t bring the desired effect. Maybe someone can tell me what that was for a comis The only thing I want to do is to have a flasher and not a flasher. Maybe it’s that this magnetic disc from SD has something to do with it because I had it out sometime, maybe I put it back in the verkehertherum again. So, now I wait if someone can help me further here, because to be quite honest I don’t want to bring the grandma into the workshop again. so long Marco

  • UNFALL: collapsed with exterior mirrors. What to do?

    Hello, I bumped into another car on a road tonight. Only the exterior mirrors are affected. The problem is that the road has no driving flag and the accident opponent claims to have driven to the far left. My mirror is scrap (Volvo S60 year 2003) and his is actually completely ok, except maybe a couple of scratches. The road there is narrow and is more of a farm road. What should I do now? We have only changed addresses. I have to replace the insurance company and wait for what happens. I think, because in the case of the accident causer it is not clear that the insurance company will divide the damage. Otherwise I have to bear the costs alone and I fear that the damage to my mirror will not be less than 300€. What would you do in my place?

  • Change thermostat?

    Hall oils, a question again about the Omega. The temperature indicator of my 2.0 16V only goes up to max. to the first stroke of the Scala. I am sure that this usually went higher. Now, of course, I have tapped on the thermostat. Only strange is that the heating still has a good heating power. What do you think, how high is your temperature indicator at these temperatures?
