Symptoms

Sloppy gear changes, loose feeling gear shift, difficulty getting into gears especially reverse and first. Gears feel like they have shifted over to the left so that 3 & 4 are where 1 & 2 normally sit. Wobbly / loose gear stick.

Fault

A bush within the gear stick assembly wears causing shifting issues.

Within the OEM gear stick shift mechanism is a poor-quality Nylon bush, a ball at the bottom of the shift stick operates within this bush, this is tight friction fit, the Nylon being of poor-quality wears away, allowing excess movement, causing the faults noted above. The solution until now was to replace the whole gear shift unit, not only is this expensive but it would inevitably fail again.

Solution

Install our new improved design bush and restore sharp gear changes.

Fit our improved material and design gear stick bush. Replace the poor-quality OEM bush with our new part at a fraction of the cost of changing the complete gear stick assembly (£300+). This will bring the sharpness back to your gearbox and make driving the vehicle easier and more enjoyable.
Our bush is made from a high-quality modified nylon and will not fail like the OEM part. Our part is made in two halves to make installation very easy, please check out our instructions and video.
Our part is injection moulded for the perfect finish. This is essential in providing smooth operation and combating wear. Not 3d printed or machined. Constructed of the best material for this application, this is what we specialise in, please check out our feedback.

$Vauxhall Opel Holden Astra Twin Top Convertible Roof Parcel Shelf Winglet Flap Motor Brass Gear Link to purchase product: https://x8r.co.uk/vauxhall/vauxhall-soft-top-motor-repair.html?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=analytics 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 Fault 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. Our 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. Vehicles Affected Vauxhall / Opel Astra Twin Top 2006-2010. Part numbers: Parcel shelf motor, part numbers 93188313 93188314 and all newer motor part numbers 13297951 13297952. You Will Receive: 2x Brass CNC machined parcel shelf winglet gear. This is not a cheaper cast part, this is a CNC part produced to fine tolerances.$
