hi folks, today i was driving round with the sunroof open, so when it came to closing it the sunroof slid about half way closed but then it just stopped and has since refused to move at all when i press either buttons, is there a fuse that i can check or anything at all to get the damn thing to close?

thanx in advance :thumbsup:

Have you tried pulling it with your hand? They can get stuck if not used for a while, or full of crud. Might work if you give it a helping hand.

Bump from the dead:

is is possible to lube the sunroof tracks? I was planning on taking the whole unit apart from the car this summer to lube as it wont move that easily

I smeared some grease on my runners, but it didn't seem to make that much difference - where it seems to stick is the point it folds that deflector down.

Most of the time it closes with no help from me, but sometimes it needs me to give it a prod to get it going again.

In my case it tilts down and move maybe 1cm by itself, then i have to help it. When I want to close it its the same thing the other way around, I have to push it while holding the switch, then when it gets to the end of the track it tilts up by itself
