My c350 sunroof wouldn't auto-express close. It would stutter close incrementally. This is a warranty issue right?

I'm going to schedule an appointment on monday, Is that a well known problem.

Yes, it's a well known problem. My '01 did this a time or two. '08s OK so far.

Run the roof closed all the way and hold the button for a further five seconds minimum. Repeat for open and again for tilt, both directions.

Look up reprogramming the windows in the manual so when they develop this hiccup you can fix that, too. Or the dealer will do it if you have the time.

If its stuck in the open position you can use the handy dandy p.o.s. looking tool usually located in the glove box when you purchased the car. It looks like a bent up piece of metal, you pop out the cover in the roof of the back seat and use the tool to crank it closed manually.

I had a similar problem and it's noted as one of my rants (#10) on another thread:

Just need the dealer to reset the software. It's covered under the warranty.

Sunroof

He didn't say it was stuck open, but that the auto-express function was not working.
