Ginger60 0 Posted July 19, 2011 I was admiring the one electric device still working on the car on Sunday, of course it decided to break. Anyone got any spares for a sunroof mechanism or any tips for broken bit? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
floppyman 0 Posted July 19, 2011 Years ago ive spent days and days trying to fix the sunroof on my g60.... Still the same... The best thing to do is buy a repair kit from vw and replace the mechanism... Its a bit of a job, done it on the vr6 2 years ago and its working great... Ill get you the part number if you want but be ready $$$... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

floppyman 0 Posted July 20, 2011 I dont remember how much... But I can find out today. The repair kit is just for the sliding operation.... If its not tilting any more then you going to need some more parts, i'll try to get the images from etka today at work but I can only post back around 6 What year is yours?

fendervg 33 Posted July 20, 2011 There are 3 parts each side for the repair - one kit will do both sides and comes with the cables - then there is a water guide at the back and a sprung arm assembly at the front. I can get you part numbers for the lot later. You should also invest in a tube of the VAG "special" sunroof lube - have a search and you will find a couple of threads on it.
