        I noticed that the yellow em light was on and wondered how to turn this off.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, welcome to the forum.
If the EML is on there is a fault. You need to identify the fault & fix it.  ;)

Have a look here ..... http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1189022687

if you have an 'eco' button I'd say you have air conditioning  ;) ;) ;)
Look for the compressor under the bonnet ........ I can't give you a clue as I've never owned a 4 pot.  ;) :y

Same place as the abnormal engines ;D bottom passenger side of aux belt run

im in leeds

Given the codes and the symptoms, cam sensor needs replacing. Geuine GM one needed. If you're near me, pop it over and I will show you.

I suspect it *may* need crank sensor at some point, but lets do one thing at a time :y

Mine IS the normal engine. The rule when buying ANY car is that is must have more cylinders than doors!  ;) ;) ;) ;)

Even her Smart conforms to the rule!  :y :y :y

Bit too far for me ;D. Follow this guide, ignore picture 6, your "Ecotec" strip just unclips.

Rectify the problem and it`ll reset itself

As said, you need to fix the fault & then the EML will go away by itself.  :y

All rules have their exceptions ..............  ;) besides, a 6 door Omega has 'stretched saloon' on the V5. The last British 'limousine' was the DS420

thanks for all your input.

if i get that sorted would the other codes go.
also would the power increase as it seems abit flat

You need more cylinders than doors ......  ;) ;) ;)
