NIKH25 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Try shutting it again and then retry opening, when I've had mine tilted and then try to open it fully it does this, a quick shut and it opens fine. Maybe once you've got it open it might be worth greasing the runners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyfie5 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 ill have another go at it sometime over the weekend, but its really puzzling, I might take a video to show what going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 You could try opening it manually with the key? Should be with the jack in the boot I think if there is one with either of the M's in your household. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzys Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I didn't know you could do that?Yeah you're supposed to be able to manually operate it like that say if the motor dies whilst it's open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fyfie5 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 just had a look and cant really see in very well as it doesn't open that much and I tried opening it manually and it sticks at the same point so I definitely think there is something stuck in there as when I turn it by hand, it sticks at the same point and I cant turn it any more, feels like something is going to snap!

Grant Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Mine did this the other day. When your trying to slide it back, stand outside the car with your finger on the button and with your other hand gentle press on the top of the sunroof. Worked on mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
