General Skywindow - help

[gorole]

Hi there,
does anybody know if I can remove the whole skywindow if it's seized shut. I want to remove it, inspect and try to fix it. The only thing I can move is forcing the first panel by hand - nothing else. BTW, the motors and blind are working fine - just the clicking noise - nothing moves even with the manual winder.

Thanks all of you

It's a single unit so you can't buy spares (aside from motors) so why don't you bite the bullet and start removing the head lining as it might give a few clues once it's down.

Garole i had a major problem with mine for over a year nothing worked and it wouldnt open manually. I pushed the button in on advice from another forum user and the following day everything worked dont know if you have tried that ? anything is worth trying to get our babies as i like to call mine back to working order.

Front motor gear is worn. You can replace it. Search on ebay for: "Webasto cog, bmw, sunroof" you will see it.
