Mine did the same thing. I spent an hour or two cleaning the guides and re-lubing. Didn't help. Finally I watched the sunroof from the outside as I closed it and noticed a tab that was protruding from the guide that was blocking the roof from progressing. I took a flat head screwdriver and pushed the tab in and walla, the sunroof closed.
As for a fix I can't help you there, I just gave up on the fact that I had a sunroof and never correctly fixed it. Blue |
