Astra Cabriolet Roof Hoses

The Team at ALNO repair Cabriolet Soft Tops

We repair Cabriolet soft tops and Cabriolet hard tops. We don’t fix seats we don’t fix boat trims we get convertible roof moving again.

The Astra Cabriolet Soft Tops and Hard Tops are Electrohydraulic driven system so why would some take there roof to an auto trimmer to have it repaired.

The team at ALNO are manufacturing engineers we manufacture the parts we offer for sale our product are of the highest quality on offer.

Our team are train in Machine and Electrohydraulic maintenance with many of our employees with over 30+ years experience in maintaining electrohydraulic systems.

The team at ALNO have developed more cost effective products for sale many of these products are manufactured in Asian or China some of these manufactures offer warranties yet many without.

Over the past 10+ years of fixing these convertible roofs not only the Soft tops, Hose Latches, but flexible drives and roof controllers as well

We have seen many customers come across quick fixes, plastic parts or back yard mechanics and in some cases hose companies fix one end of a ten year old hose and the other ends blows a week later. So the customer ends up paying double or half the price of a new hose with news hose fittings.

As time has gone on many of the Holden or local dealership mechanics that have been trained to maintain or repair the Astra Convertible roofs have moved on in there jobs as 10+ years ago they were trained on the TS Astra Bertone Cabriolet ( Opel manufactured ) and 5+ Years ago they were trained on the AH Astra Convertible ( Vauxhall manufactured ). In today’s day and age it quite difficult to keep well trained mechanics.

Astra Roof Latches

It is funny how many new ideas people are coming up with regard to getting Astra Roof Latches to work.

In most cases these people are just guessing that is manufacturing without engineering.

In the coming days across this blog we will be publishing more information

On what ….. not to do with your Astra Convertible.

What I don’t understand is why people try to save money

With a simple quick fix and it ends up costing them More in the long run

Than the price of new Holden Astra Roof Latches

Plastic Roof Latches that only last 2-3 years dependant on how offen the roof opens.

In one instance an Astra owner spent over $6000 in legal costs as one person said that

they come fix the convertible roof yet 2 years later the roof still did not function.

Yet $150 later after seeking advice from ALNO the roof works as new.

Getting the right advice on what the next step is becoming more critical as many of these Astra’s are over 10 years old and becoming more fragile.

In this instance a set of Brass roof latches where fitted to his Astra Convertible

Astra Roof Hose

Astra Hose Blown

Today Hydra-link franchise called ask / requesting help for another Astra convertible that had a blown hose.

Then after replacing the hose that roof did not work?

or function how it was designed

” We just want to send this customer to another mechanic to fix the problem,  ?”

” We don’t do mechanical repairs ” 

” Do you know anyone in our area that can help “

– The Hydra-link supplier stated

————————————————————-

I’m not sure but when i went to University Hydraulics was under the Mechanical Engineering stream

along with mechanics.

————————————————————————–

Our responses is that anyone can fix these cars the Astra Bertone Convertible roofs with the right advice.

From what we are currently lead to believe or all the evidence suggests that the car had a blown hose and that hose has been repaired 

Yet through the installation of the hose additional damage has been caused to the car / roof and now the roof does not function any longer.

If you have a blown hose and you replace that hose that is blown and nothing else changes through changing the single hose

The problem is solved …..

The issue here is with so many Pirtek, Hydra-link and Hose Doctors across the country that know how to fix all the hydraulic systems in factories or on manufacturing equipment quite well as they work on them most days.

When it comes to specialist systems I would not want part timers working on my car as when things go wrong these guys just push you off to some else.

 Over the past 6 months ALNO Product Services has assisted 39 Astra Convertible roof owners repair hose systems in the car with the right advice.

Not to mention customers in Europe, the UK and New Zealand across 4 different languages 

95% of these Astra Convertible owners have repaired these hoses themselves including a single mother of 3 in Adelaide region and a retired 75 year old man from Perth suburbs 

Don’t let part timers replace one end of your hose to find out the other end blows two weeks latter.
