QuestionI recently had my car tuned up. It is a 1997 528i. I cannot get my sunroof to open up to let in some ventilation. It will retract but it won't open up or tilt up as it did before the tune up. What can i do to troubleshoot this problem?
AnswerI can't say i understand,
"It will retract but it won't open up"
if it retracts-
re·tract ( P ) Pronunciation Key (r-trkt)
v. re·tract·ed, re·tract·ing, re·tracts
v. tr.
1. To take back; disavow: refused to retract the statement.
2. To draw back or in: a plane retracting its landing gear. See Synonyms at recede1.
3. Linguistics.
then how could it be that it is not opening?
check the fuse, and if thats good, check the switch. if all is well, attempt to move the sunroof manually (i think it's in the trunk) if it still doesn't open, and you hear the motor running the problem is in the linkage, it's possibly broken or otherwise off track or jammed.
-cheers
