Hi everyone
Just a query to anyone who has had experience of the sunroof fit at the front frame edge, which is clamping down too firmly resulting in damaged paintwork at the corners and along the front of the roof aperture?
I have just had my roof repainted due to the front corners of the sunroof frame wearing the paint away, it's not through movement but sheer pressure. There was also a wear line along the centre of the roof front again from the leading edge of the sunroof frame which presses down too much.
I have looked at the sunroof frame to see if it can be levered away from the body of the car slightly but it is too solid. The roof aperture is now fitted with a water seal that looks good but does not sit in the right place to lift the sunroof frame. The next place to work on is the actual sunroof lever catch lock. This looks to have some adjustment but on my car this looks to be fully used. Has anyone experienced this and if so what was the fix?
Cheers
