millertime9 Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 I can see replacement motors on eBay for about £140 which is great but daft question... is there a "pump" too? What are the chances it's the motor as opposed to the pump I need replaced? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 There is an hydraulic pump. Have you done a diagnostic check? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millertime9 Posted April 7, 2023 Author Share Posted April 7, 2023 No nobody near who can do one for me Is it daft me buying a motor just incase it isn't that? I can get a motor and pump for £280, as opposed to £140 just for motor, am I better doing that? The fact it pops open a few cm then nothing apparently suggests it's the motor only?

Steve Q Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Could them be something jammed in the system which could prevent it opening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Hello Frankie, I think you will be throwing good money after bad, by just assuming it’s any one of many components that could be at fault, rather than getting the root cause diagnosed. Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, can you give me some pointers on where to check? It is weird as it worked fine for a few weeks after buying it then just stopped operating properly and no flashing error light or anything, just pops then nothing else I'm struggling to find ant diagrams of where the sensors etc are, can you help?

Lance Evans Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Hi we had the same problem and ours was the motor only the roof would unlock lift slightly then nothing a garage in Birmingham did ours and they supply and fit the motors as audi will do the same but they will include hydraulics which wasn’t needed can give you the garage and number but not the cost because our seller paid for it as the fault occurre the day after we purchased it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have ordered a motor, hopefully that's all it is Wonder if it maybe even just needs fluid topped up? Nightmare to get to it though yo check so will wait for the motor to arrive and check Any ideas how to top the fluid up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
