Common engines during this period included: X20XEV (2.0L 16V Ecotec I4), X25XE (2.5L V6), X30XE (3.0L V6), Y26SE (2.6L V6), Y32SE (3.2L V6). Diesel engines such as the X20DTH (2.0L Turbo Diesel) and Y25DT (2.5L Turbo Diesel) were also available. Specific engine codes would be detailed within the manual. Performance Typical Power Output: Varies significantly by engine. For example, the 2.0L 16V Ecotec (X20XEV) produced around 136 PS (134 hp; 100 kW). The 3.0L V6 (X30XE) produced around 211 PS (208 hp; 155 kW). Precise figures for each engine variant are in the manual. Typical Torque Output: Correlates with engine power. For the X20XEV, torque was around 188 Nm (139 lb-ft). For the X30XE, torque was around 270 Nm (199 lb-ft). Specifics for all engines are detailed. Fuel System Injection Type: Multi-point fuel injection (MPI) for petrol engines, common rail diesel injection (CRDi) for later diesel models. Specifics for each engine are provided. Fuel Type: Unleaded gasoline (petrol) for gasoline engines, diesel fuel for diesel engines. Lubrication Oil Type: Manual would specify OEM-approved oils, likely API SL/SJ or higher for petrol, and ACEA B3/B4 for diesel. Viscosity grades such as 5W-30, 10W-40 are common for this era and platform. Oil Capacity: Varies by engine. For example, the 2.0L 16V would be around 4.5 liters, while V6 engines would be closer to 5.5-6.0 liters. Exact capacities are listed per engine. Cooling System Coolant Type: Typically a long-life ethylene glycol-based antifreeze. Specific GM/Vauxhall/Opel coolant specifications (e.g., G12 or equivalent) would be detailed. Ignition System Spark Plug Type: Manual would specify OEM or equivalent spark plug part numbers and gap settings for each engine. Common types might include platinum or iridium plugs. 🔧 Transmission Standard Gearbox Type: Depending on engine and trim, manual transmissions were common. For example, Getrag or Opel-designed 5-speed and 6-speed manuals for petrol and diesel engines. Optional Automatic Transmission Type: General Motors 4-speed automatic transmissions (e.g., 4L30-E) were widely used, particularly with V6 engines. Later models might have seen 5-speed automatics introduced. Specific GM transmission codes are likely in the manual. Features Transmission Fluid Type: Manual would specify DEXRON-III or equivalent ATF for automatic transmissions. Manual gearboxes would typically use GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil, with specific viscosity grades like 75W-90. Clutch Type: Dry single-plate clutch for manual transmissions. Details on clutch disc and pressure plate replacement procedures are included. 📐 Dimensions Exterior Body Styles: The Omega B was available primarily as a 4-door saloon (sedan) and a 5-door hatchback (Caravan/Vectra Caravan in some...
