Sunroof Trouble
#1
Hey all

Just wondering with those of you with the sunroof, when you press the close button to the second spot on the switch does it close it automatically, it says it is suppose to in the manuel but mine closes but then reopens. So I open it it works fine but when I go to close it it take 2 or 3 times to get it to shut. As well it seems to sit low in the roof, its not even with the roof line is this normal?

On the second click, it should close automatically...I had trouble with my sunroof as well. I am going to bring it in for it to be serviced again. When i open it to the vent position, it gives me this creaking/rubbing/squeaking sound which is unbearable...i had them fix it just before the winter and at that point, there was no more sounds, worked perfectly. Now that winter is over, the sound is fricken back...so im bringing it in soon and see what they say.

Mine is flush with roof. I don't think it should be recessed at all. I know the manual tells how to reset the sunroof, but I have never tried this procedure.

Oh yea, now that SVT ZX3 mention it...there is a reset procedure for the moonroof. Check your manual, it should reset your roof back to factories settings.

Had the same problem b4 too and the reset corrected it. You also may notice on very hot days your sunroof won't open...it'll go in a safety mode thinking the motor is overheating, it'll work again when it cools down ;) .
