Other Sunroof problem

Yasin · 24th December 2011, 20:59

My sunroof cover doesnt open properly. When I press the button for the sunroof, it doesnt open at first, then suddenly swings back and makes a loud bang. Not sure if this makes any sense?

It's a known problem Yasin, i'm afraid.
It's nothing more than a small clip/ spring that needs replacing.
Problem is - to get to it , the headlining needs to be removed or at least released at the front.

Mine did this last winter.... I sprayed some silicon cleaner on the runners (dash cleaner), been fine since

And stopped it rattling too!

Mine only seems to do this during winter. Doesn't really bother me too much so I've just left it.
