Astra Convertible Roof Problems



When you find your convertible Astra’s roof is failing to work properly or isn’t moving then you have a real decision to make in how you are going to go about fixing it. 

For a truly reliable solution you have two options, ask the team at Holden and pay an exorbitant amount or let us at ALNO Product Services help you get it working.

Our team at ALNO have been serving Astra drivers for over 10 years.  We can get your convertible roof moving and in great working order. 

You’ll be surprised to know that a lot of our Astra parts revenue actually comes from Holden or GM branches from New Zealand, Europe and Australia-wide.  And it is often the case that our parts are half the price offered by the big dealers. 

Getting a repair for your roof system be it latch, hose or simply oil is vital in the maintenance of your Astra.  Don’t rely on mechanics with limited experience in repairing systems like these.  You costs will only increase if an untested solution or parts are placed experimentally on the system. 

Some problems we’ve solved in the past include roof parts:

·        Stick to the windscreen
·        Have sprayed oil everywhere
·        With the latch bearings incorrectly replaced
·        Roofs that stop halfway
·        Roofs that don't make any alert noises when you push to open or close the roof
·        Roof rusting due to the latches
·        Latches that have been bolted together
·        That need a complete replacement

Astra Convertible Roof Repairs

If you have problem with your Astra convertible roof opening and closing:

If so the best bet is to get a professional to look at.

The team at ALNO Product Services have a list of Professional Mechanics working across Australia and New Zealand.
Many of these mechanics are fully trained Ex-Holden Dealership employees.
In the cases where you are remote and there are not a lot of mechanics around the team at ALNO can assist in identifying what the problem is with your Astra roof over the phone.

Please note we are more than happy to assist our customers but not time wasters
So people call up wanting infomation oin what is wrong with there Astra then purchase chinese manufactured hose or latches sets
Then call back when they cannot get the roof working.
When fitting a set of latches there is a risk of hydraulic failure.
Furthermore if latches are not fitted correctly there is a real possibility of failure 
In the flexible drives or roof jaming.
One other peice of advice dont remove the Tyrco Relay before talking to us.
As they are not manufactured any longer and are quite difficult to get your hands on. 

Over the past six years the team at ALNO Product Services have serviced over
 75 Convertible roofs each year.


Why risk taking advice from people on a blog  ..... if things go wrong who will you turn to.

There has not been an Astra Bertone Convertible that the team at ANO Product Services
 has not been able to fix.

We have seen many weird and wonderful inventions the latest failure is a Queensland failure.
Aluminum parts machined for latches .....  fitted for two days
 then convertible roof started slamming into the windscreen.

One could argue that the parts fitted were ok ...... when fitted ......
or maybe it was the way the parts had been fitted who is to say?

One thing is sure there was one unhappy customer .... buy all reports
the solution did not fit the problem for three months the customer struggled
 with closing the roof and at some stages was not sure
if the roof was going to break the the windscreen.

At the end of the day if you enjoy the feeling of driving in an open roof and you love your car which one day will be a collectable item.


Then let the team at ALNO Product Services take care of your roof
