Astra Convertible Roof Latches

Another two Astra convertible roof latch sets this week need re-engineering thanks to our friends in Brisbane

These latches come from a so called "backyard operator in the Brisbane suburbs" is how one of new our customers put it.

So there are now more Questions are now being asked?

Are these machinists Australia qualified as they advertise parts manufactured in Brisbane yet parts are not machined to Australian standards or Australian Quality Assurance standards

This is highly evident in the machining and manufacuring processes used Moreover the two Astras we inspected this week were suffering the effects of galvanic corrosion 

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_corrosion

In general terms galvanic corrosion is caused by clamping or securing dissimular materials together the result is an increase in the amount of corrosion or rate of corrosion overtime

As the Aluminimum blocks had not been treated for corrorion they were just raw Aluminimum. These Astra convertibles roof had been butchered they were showing a signifigant amount of Galvanic Corrosion or in layman terms RUST which over time will spread to the other parts on the car  

We are intrested in talking to other customers that have purchased Astra Roof Latches from the "backyard operator in the Brisbane suburbs" just to keep customers informed.

All the aluminimum parts supplied by ALNO Product Services are protected against corrosion
