Oh well, had to happen to me eventually I guess.

by Callyman » Sun Jul 21, 2013 1:06 am

Popped outside to close the car up (sunroof and windows) and Yep, yep you guessed it, sunroof closed with an almighty bang.

Now, common sense would say leave it shut, but no, like a plum i opened it again to the tilt position, another clunk, tried to open it further ad it went out of square and it's taken me 3 hours to get it closed, but at least it's now water proof again. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Sounds like a bit of a nightmare Andy,I had to replace the full
unit on the SE6 and it was hard trying to find a decent one.
