I have searched hi & lo and only found info on the Stilo roof. Today was a warm day so I opened the skyroof on my car, it was painfully slow. Last summer it was fine. So i am guessing it needs some TLC. A few squirts of WD40 helped speed things up, so now I would like to know a few things. How can I clean the runners successfully ? Is there a proper way to do this, and if so what grease should I use?

thank you Tad, I read the whole lot and have cleaned and greased the runners. Lots better, probably better than it's ever been in my ownership. Now all I have to do is locate the drainage hole. I am assuming they are eitherside at the front and drain into the scuttle as do most cars. I had a friend who's car had become a pond as a result of block drainage holes. It slooshed around and came into the car via the fan system and ruined it. (147 Alfa)

You're welcome my friend.
I think there's only one drainage pipe on one side (try the left side first)
Might be easier to just open the rear wheel arch cover to see the exist point of the drainage.
