VAUXHALL OPEL ASTRA TWINTOP ROOF PARCEL SHELF WINGLET FLAP MOTOR BRASS GEAR CNC PART NUMBER: X8R0060
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Our repair kit in this listing addresses the common failure of the Vauxhall / Opel / Holden Astra twin top parcel shelf motor. Our components described herein with the assistance of our supportive instruction media will allow you to replace just the faulty components which always fail within the parcel shelf winglet motor without having to replace them with the OEM actuator mechanism as this would only leave you exposed to the same fault in the future. An extremely common fault corrected by our repair kit.
SYMPTOMS OF FAULT
Typical symptoms of the failure of the gear within the parcel shelf winglet motor include; roof going down but taking a long time to come back up, perhaps going half way stopping for a period before closing down. When opening / closing roof parcel shelf winglets remain in the air and do not fold out / in. Alternatively winglets may function but slowly or erratically. Please check out our video to see the most common symptoms of this fault.
THE CAUSE
THE PLASTIC GEAR WITHIN THE PARCEL SHELF WINGLET MOTOR WEARS AND STRIPS CAUSING ROOF FAULTS.
It is common for the motor which operates the parcel shelf winglets to fail, within this motor is a plastic gear. The gear is made from a poor quality plastic which wears prematurely; stopping the motor from working and causing defects such as the roof not opening or closing- a result of the parcel shelf winglets sticking, not operating or only moving part way. It is rare for any other components in this motor / actuator to fail. The outer worm gear in this module is made of metal and does not fail however this interacts with the plastic gear causing the plastic gears teeth to wear / strip and fail to function. A new motor can be purchased from the vehicle manufacturer, these typically retail for £350+, these are also fitted with the same plastic gear which will fail again. Our CNC Brass gear allows you to replace just the part that fails at a fraction of the cost and permanently fixes the fault. This product is also ideal to fit as a preventative measure as the plastic gear will wear in future and is likely to malfunction at an inconvenient time.
THE SOLUTION
INSTALL OUR PRECISION ENGINEERED CNC BRASS GEAR AND RESTORE YOUR TWIN TOP ROOF OPERATION.
Our Brass gear allows you to replace just the component that fails within the parcel shelf winglet motor without the need to replace the whole motor which would just fail again. Our Brass gear replaces the plastic gear that fails. We have matched the material of our gear to function correctly with the existing gear within the motor to ensure smooth life time use. Replacement motors are extremely expensive and are fitted with the same plastic gear which will just fail again. Install our gear at a fraction of the cost and enjoy using your roof again. Our gear is bench tested to 10,000+ motions with no measurable deterioration of our gear or the worm drive, also fitted and field tested ensuring this product means our high quality standards. Install is very simple with the aid of our video and pictorial instructions and the help of our technical team if required. This is a CNC machined part. We recommend replacing both gears left and right parcel shelf motors at the same time.
