Hi all, one of the hydraulic hoses on the roof has blown out on my partners 2002 Astra cabriolet.
I've read a few posts on this forum and it seems to be a common issue which is fixed by replacing the entire hose length.
I had a quick look at the pump end today (located in the boot just behind the rear light) and can't work out how the hose actually disconnects from the pump - can anyone advise on how to remove the hose? I tried unscrewing one, and removing the top plate on the pump as i thought it maybe acting as a locking plate but neither worked - thought i'd best check on here first before i do any damage!
Am trying to find a hydraulic specialist to re-fill oil for my soft-top bertone with no luck. Do you guys know of anyone that can do it? I have already purchased the oil. Thank you. Melanie Howard.
My roof has seized and the R hand hydraulic hose split - oil everywhere..
it is currently in with the Holden dealers in Gippsland but they have had it for nearly a week and can't yet tell me even how much they think it will cost.
The only thing they can say is that holder don't make the part anymore.
I feel I am getting the run around. Is there a service agent in South East Melbourne or out towards South east country regions?
My 2003 Holden Astra's remote key stopped working, and I went out and replaced the battery myself.
ReplyDeleteBut it doesn't work, and Holden wants $60 to 're-sync' the remote. Is there a cheaper way of doing this?
Someone said that they read somewhere holding the remote key down, and keeping the key in the ignition, but can't find it now
Anyway can someone help
