Sunroof tilt problem

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

My sunroofs slide function has been out of action for a while now.

Suddenly when opening the tilt today, I think I accidently push the button horizontal (slide way) and it mad a 'broken' click.

Now I'm home the bloody thing wont close.

upon inspection the slider for the tilt mechanism is only sliding on one side? Does anyone have any idea how I can get the other side to close, I dont care if it never opens again, but I need it to close incase it rains... I tried pulling the panel off the sunroof controls and manually closing ti with the allen key but it is only moving the one working side.

 

Please help!

Whilst closing it manually can you push on the broken side at the same time to hopefully move it equally. The sunroof trim can be pushed back (with some force) to allow Acces to the sunroof panel

Well done. Job for the future is a challenging repair. It is possible if the usual cable connection has broken, to chop and change parts from a different vw sunroof to make it work again. But it isn't easy.
