Gear Wheel For Sunroof Motor Opel-Vauxhall Astra TwinTop

Application:
Vauxhall / Opel / Holden Astra TwinTop (2006-2010)

Reference OEM Numbers:
93188313,93188314,13297951,13297952

Symptoms of Failure:
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. 

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 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. This is a CNC machined part. We recommend replacing both gears left and right parcel shelf motors at the same time.

Please do not forget to put some grease on the cog/gear before you use it.
