QuestionI have a 2008 Grand Cherokee and the sunroof doesn't quite close completely. It moves to the closed position but doesn't quite lift into place completely at the back, stopping approx 1/4 to 1/2 inch below the roof line at the rear. I am not seeing water leaking, presumably because it is draining properly, but I do get notable wind noise and would like to know if I can adjust it without taking it in and paying top $ for what is hopefully a 20 minute job.
Many thanks in advance.
Answer. Move the sunshade rearward to the open position.
2. Separate the mechanism covers (2) from the tabs (1) on the glass panel.
3. Verify the sunroof glass panel is in the fully closed position.
4. Loosen the forward attaching screws (3) on each side enough to permit the front of the glass to adjust up or down.
5. Adjust the front surface of the sunroof glass panel 0.00 mm to 2 mm (0.00 in. to 0.08 in.) below the top surface of the roof.
6. Tighten the front glass panel attaching screws to 3.5 N·m (30 in. lbs.).
7. Loosen the rear screws (3) on each side enough to make the rear adjustment.
8. Adjust the rear surface of the sunroof glass panel 0.00 mm to 2 mm (0.03 in. to 0.08 in.) above the top surface of the roof.
9. Tighten the rear glass panel attaching screws to 3.5 N·m (30 in. lbs.).
10. Check for proper fit. If not OK, repeat glass panel adjustment.
11. Position the mechanism covers (2) over the glass tabs (1) between the locating features and seat fully.
12. Verify sunroof operation and alignment.
