before anyone starts trying to beat me to death with a broken mech. i have read the threads posted about the problem.

 

im going to look at a vr with a completely non working roof over the weekend.....is this likely to be the motor is dead rather than anything else?

 

the bloke said its not worked for 4 years and didnt get it fixed because vw quoted him £1000......

could be motor/cables, but it's a good way of knocking £500 of the asking price though, and it shouldn't cost you more than £100, and a day to fix.

thats what i was thinking....even a complete new mech can be picked up for £200 odd if you know someone....

or go to the breakers pick up a complete sunroof motor mech and runners etc from a passat estate for not a lot of money and fit that. all you need to do is swap the panels over which is only a couple of torx heads. Is that you big Chris from no rice? If so twas me who put you in touch with the guy who bought your audi 90, if not youve no idea what im on about and i apologise prefusely.

Nice one

ello gav how ya doing?

 

take it the 90's still ok?

 

was going for an s2 this time round, but after lookig at some im no longer that keen.

 

the big decision now is g60 or vr6!

 

take it your taling about the passat glass roof??

aloha, aye your old 90's going from strength to strength, big valve head etc fitted last week, ill try and get some pics for you.

Aye, did mean the glass one. The glass panel can be swapped for the oe metal one. on the passat frame but no the other way round.

Miss my old s2, really do. But my new vr is a good subsitute, totally different.

Personally prefer the flexibilty of the vr lump over the g60 but thats just a personal preference
