Hello all............I've been looking at my screen for ages trying to work out how to post myself onto the newbies page........I'm not sure if I have achieved this, if I have, Hello!

I have recently bought my first Omega. It's 2.5 V6 Auto on an 'S'. It's done 85000 miles.The CAM belts and tensioners replaced at 68000. A few spots of rust on the N/S rear passenger door and also O/S rear wheel arch. Very clean motor. It's been sitting for a year on my neighbour's drive whilst he was abroad. Paid 800.00 quid as he is going away again - bargain?

Once I fit a new battery what do you suggest I need to do in terms of oil changes etc........I want to drive it from Tuesday, MOT is Monday.

If I have entered this on a wrong page I am sorry.....................could you direct me?

cheers, drive safe.

Nov 2006 at 21:07 Welcome to the forum Thanks for introducing yourself What model is it - GLS, CD, CDX, Elite etc? Best to keep technical queries to 'Omega General Help' I personally change my oil and filter every 3 - 4k, and use genuine Vx parts and Vx Semi-Synth oil (nice and cheap on Trade Club)
