Title: Hi there, after a little help.... Post by lukie on 17. Feb 2007 at 19:26
Hi to you all, I'm now the owner of a omgea 2.2 ecotec 2001 auto, but it's missing cruise control.... I have looked around on the site and think I have found my cure however can someone confirm what my car is, have I got a omega b or c, I know it's a facelift model, thanks in advance for any advice

Welcome to site :)
Omega B facelift, no such thing as Omega C. For cruise you need the new stalk (4 wire one) and the feature enabled in the ECU via a Tech2 device... |

Proper Tech II, not the one off ebay. |

Difficult to see if that is 4 wire one. Bear in mind, only £30 + VAT from dealer, and 2nd hand ones tend not to last too long (problems with full beam coming on unexpectedly).
As for enabling, you need a real Tech2 like my one, not a cheapo lead one... |

cruise stalk £31.33 + vat from Vaux, might we worth getting one brand new ebay ones can be suspect.
Real Tech2 needed, has to be enabled by dealer or member here who has real tech2, whats your location? I enabled cruise on my 2.2, best mod I have ever done.... :y |

Price quoted was Trade Club... £34.80 + Vat retail.... £31.33 + Vat Trade Club.... Your looking at £45+ vat just to plug in Tech2 at a dealer, however it may be worth going around the back and having a word with the Vx guys round the back.... maybe 'donate' to their favourite beer fund ;) |

Not TC item, so cheaper is std trade price. SO they've gone up in price, they were £29 trade, £31 retail (+VAT) |
