Hey y'all
25. Aug 2006 at 22:56
 
Was asked by a guy in a traffic jam on the M6 today if I was on the forum so I thought I'd stop by and say a big hello to you all, I'm on my 3rd Omega, all have been different (2.5 V6, a 2.0 estate and finally a 2.5 TD) and have loved each of them.... Smiley

Greetings one and all!

Ronnie, I must admit I did wonder who was calling to me across the M6  Smiley I think it confused me more as you were driving a
Corsa

Thanks for introducing me to the forum

You're welcome mate.

As you drive a TD, you'll find myself and MarksDTMCalib and a couple of others have most the answers on this model. I have had 3 of them, including two that needed extensive work.

There are some VERY knowledgeable guys and gals on here. You can be fairly sure that whatever the problem, we have cobered it before, possibly in a previous life on another unmentionable forum.

What we have here is Omega's only. It is the worlds only totally Omega dedicated forum. We all own or have owned Omegas and share a love/hate relationship with what I can honestly describe as a car. Grin

Anyway, glad you have joined. Feel free to ask anything you like, we don't mock.

Ron.

Welcome to the site Belgarion. If you had leaky rocker cover gaskets Ronnie mcb could have done them for you whilst you were in the traffic jam he's that well practiced at them now it's rumoured that he can change a full set in only 43 seconds Wink Grin

According to Vx, 4.5k between oil changes. I would do it more often if possible as its the single biggest (and easy) thing you can do to help engine life...
