Hello, for now, I have no idea of cars and have always had a leasing vehicle so not to tear up immediately. So following, I drive an old Opel Omega Caravan Built 82. TÜV and AU were made at the end of last year. Yesterday I then had the problem, I drove a little faster than usual, at once there was a blow, the engine nice to smoke and I turn right, engine off, first time bonnet on , has quite stunk but asks me not nac h what exactly, and steamed, parts of the engine were quite hot, although I was only 5 minutes away. Since my destination was not 5 minutes away by car anymore, I waited until it cooled down and stopped steaming, put me in, and I continued (but without a mobile phone it is quite uncomfortable on the highway in drizzle rain). !. bad signs in idle I have the feeling to sit on a tractor, that will only be minimally better w I put in a gear and give gas and will be really bad when I come in the 5th over 80Km/h. 2. bad sign to hear a slight loop during the ride 3. Very bad sign after finishing the ride and turning off the engine still about half a minute to a minute to hear a loop. I have now left the car at the finish place and move away by train, but can someone tell me what, that could be, and what costs there are about to be on me mmen können ? Sincerely Benjamin

Hello Opel municipality! As a former Opel driver again beautiful memories come up when I see the names of the diligent writers here in the forum. My B-Vectra I have now “herited” my brother and he continues to do good services, and after a short trip to the Japanese brand Lexus I returned to the house GM, this time to the “teure” department Saab and got me a 9-3 with the 1.8i. Engine ID Z18XE. The same of the also in several Opel models He immediately made me have a lot of fun in the car, of the dimensions weight etc. is to settle the 9-3 in the Vectra segment. Many Saab drivers speak of a tired toad but to me he suffices and I am completely satisfied so far. Since I bought the car from a dealer about 350km away from my home and of course still used car guarantee is on it I wanted to know if there are typical diseases with the engine since I return to the direction at the end of the month The engine has now run 42000km and is year 2004 When I informed myself in advance the engine seemed to run quite smoothly. I therefore ask you for only a very small percentage of Saab driving around with this engine and even the Saab workshop stands quite perplexed in front of the engine. Be it also for maintenance timing belt change etc. best to my old, reliable O thanks in advance for your answers LG Mario

Nabend Forum. I have now made my C20XE and want to take the head off. So I have now finished everything down timing belts V-belts away and valve cover is also down. so far so good. Now in the clever book (Opel Astra F self-help or so it is called) I should now take off the camshaft wheels by holding with a matching hexagon key to the wheel. But I don’t understand that because I thought this one hexagon screw fixation for the wheel i I hope you can help me get the two wheels down. LG and thank you so much

I’ve been thinking about which engine I should pack in my 76 Manta B for years and days. I’d love a 6-piece but then I’m thinking about head load, performance, durability of the powertrain and the ease of maintenance (yes, actually you shouldn’t worry about this when you remodel it, but you don’t have to expand the engine for a spark plug change?! doesn’t have to be ) Here’s a small list of the engines I’m getting ready for. t has: 12V 3.0l + cheap to get + sounds better with weavers than the rest of the selection + more durable to drive on more engine capacity than the 24V (Imotec offers nice things) + cheaper to do when compared 24V – old engine ( tuning parts rare ) – power output 24V 3.0l + power + more potential when tuning + more revolving than the 12V – purchase more expensive – tuning parts very expensive 2.4er 8V + fits wonderfully + less weight + many tuning parts available – has everyone – just 4 cylinders – the 240hp I would like to have a little hard to reach I would like to hear your pros and cons on the topic.
