I had an '05 and the sunroof control module was changed. The little switch that controls it looks,and feels pretty weak to me. So my thinking is that they replaced the old module with a new module that has a redesigned switch and this is just some dum excuse.

I've noticed that if you slightly tap the button to close the sunroof it only goes so far before returning to its original open state. Although if held for MORE than a split second, it seems to work just fine. In other words, mine works with patience, you could say we have an understanding

mine just started doing the same thing a few weeks ago...when you hit auto close, it goes a few inches then stops like there's something in the way.

will have it taken care of next time i take it in

Do you guys know where the sensor is located, would replacing it be an easy fix?

It's in the headliner but there's no sensor it's just the motor
