Sunroof Gone Funny
« on: 18 May 2007, 12:41 »
hi people just wondering if its much of a job to get the sunroof appart it seems that one of the runners wont return, so it goes up on tilt but when lowering one side stays where it is!!!
anyone know how to fix this or a rough estimation about getting it repaired at a stealers
many thanks

Not an easy fix!
have ya tried a liberal spray of WD40?

If one of the runners is jammed then its not an easy fix. probably be easier to get one from a scrappy and replace. But that means removing the headlining and a few trim items.

Have you tried the manual winder? Its under/above the interior lights. usually a hex head next to the motor.
