Sun Roof issues

Yesterday when I was opening my sun roof It would stop about every 6 inches throughout the opening process then at the end it would sound like the cables would slap aginst the tracks. I have no problems closing it... Any suggestions?

sorry, no input for opening your sunroof, but i would like to know if anybody else seems to have my problem with the sunroof. mine functions well (knock on wood) but when fully closed there seems to be alot of wind noise on the freeway. is this a problem or a regularity.

Benzman, what year is your car? Does it sound like it's binding up when it stops every six inches?

When your sunroof is closed, the leading edge should be even to slightly below the roof, while the trailing edge should be about 2mm above the roof of the car, so that the wind flows smoothly over the top. If it isn't, your sunroof glass needs to be adjusted. See if that eliminates the wind noise.
