From minor shortcomings, not insured by any one car. How to deal with some of them on their own, tell the owners of Opel Astra previous generation
IF SKIPPTH OF BARDICKOK "Cricket" in the area of the web-box is heard by many owners of Opel Astra H. Sy recipe for disposal of extraneous sounds suggested at the astra-h forum. ru Sergey K. and Neck. It is possible to follow two different approaches-it is possible to eliminate the identified sources of noise, or immediately go through all the problem areas (as we will do). In order to remove the wind-chirtbox, you have to start spinning the four samorées first. Gently push forward the glove box, disconnect the connector from the backlight platter, pull out the plug-in-box. Note that a plastic latch is on top of the face, slightly rocking side to side. The main source of the noise is the screw of the duct to the passenger's seat, the red arrow is recommended for hard fixation, or a plastic filler, such as an ordinary duct, is recommended. The internal air duct from the air conditioner does not prevent the lock from being secured (upper arrow). At the point of contact, the glove compartment with the air duct is made by a piece of madelina (self-adhesive sealing material). The Madeline will also not be extranets in contact with the fixation of the duct with the rigidity of the panel. The same material shall be used to remove the potential noise source in the contact area between the air duct and floor coverings. The decorative linings of the duct at the point of contact with rubber and on the edge (lower arrows). Along the line of contact with the plastic casing of the instrument panel, the bardade is treated in the same way. HAND-IN-HAND. The Opel Astra H sedan does not have a handle to close the trunk (either outside or inside)-there are still traces of fingers on its lid, and scratches appear over time. And the hands are chitchat. In order to make the process of closure of the boot more civilized, the culinary specials suggest various improvements. Some of these were shared by the participants of the profile site astraclub. ru (we thank you for the help of the forum dimm33, Solder, MegaPavel, Bodrogo Faye). The first, budget, way is to use the pen from Opel Vectra B. It is swinging instead of the upper left (with the trunk lid) of the fag. We need to pull a payston out of the attachment and drill through the hole in the sheathing. Use the peg shown in the photo to permanently install the handle. That's what it looks like in a sborough. The trunk now closes with one finger. A more solid and labor-intensive option is to install the handle-pocket. There's got to be a detail from Kia, number 81754-3F000. With the right hand in this place as close to the horizontal reupholstery as possible, we will hit the handle (the carcass does not interfere with the carcass). We're making a pattern on the contour of the pen. The Pistons can be melted away from the rear. If you don't want to be bothered with the extra creepages, you have to bend the perimeter of the handle to the epics of the epoxy-it's almost the factory view.
