1994 Vauxhall Omega SEL Estate review from UK and Ireland
"Good working car, very comfortable - potential unknown problems?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Headlights far too dim.
Fuel stop solenoid failed.
**Loud slow metallic clicking coming from engine, 2 to 3 clicks a second starting at 500 revs and increasing with revs.
General comments?
Engine Problem: Independant of engine load. Oil condition fine. Regular service. So far three Vauxhall technical specialists have examined the engine. None have been able to identify the cause. All were concerned. One of them reported hearing it in another Omega taxi with 200,000 miles, which was also not resolved. Problem still under investigation - can any one help?
