9 out of 10 testers prob would not bother with an advisory so should be nothing of concern

hi folks just to clear it up the first post is correct . i am a tester( just to clarify) lol . even if front fogs fitted and dont work is only an advisory. and reverse lights not checked as part of mot requirements, but a good tester may check them any way and advise they not working. hope this helps!

hi me again, this auto box on our 3.0 v6 elite occassionally slips in and out of 3rd and 4th ,and bangs into gear occassionaly. is this thrust washer an easy job ? could it just be a case of oil and filter change? are they gauze filters that can be cleaned? thaks in advance for help.

Omega General Help / Re: MY 3.0 V6 ELITE SEEMS TO WANDER/ALSO SLIPS GEARS

« on: 14 March 2009, 18:56:11 »

hi folks i can not believe i have left it this long!, but i changed my pirelli's on the front for a pair of budget but good tyres as the pirelli's were worn very low right on the edges. this has unbelievably worked!!! i never would have thought it or would have done so earlier, but after eliminating all your ideas seemed the only thing left. thanks a mil.  
NOW it has started to slip out of 3rd or 4th gear! bloody thing lol
we love this car dearly but is proving to be a little mare!
thanks for help guys

Omega General Help / Re: MY 3.0 V6 ELITE SEEMS TO WANDER UNEXPECTEDLY HELP!

great stuff will check camber. bought from a garage who had replaced the wishbone, although i did check the n/s and all seems ok. although the o/s/f tyre is bald on inner edge, and i assumed this was caused by a worn wishbone/ball joint.thanks will check camber though

to be honest i havent checked as we have only had it a week and the wife has taken control of the keys, she says it feels like its gliding momentarily when it happens.
do you know the camber settings? thanks

hi folks a veteran mot tester i may be but any advice on my new (new to us anyway) elite would be great .
every now and then it just seems to dart slightly to the right? has a new wishbone to o/s/f.
do the power steering racks suffer from weak spots in them ?or maybe a traction control fault? any ideas would be great
