Thanks for the info. Are there some known issues with the sunroof. Ours seems to get hung up and can't completely close in the auto mode. It begins to travel, then stops and opens again unless operating with the manual override switch.

Thanks for the tips. Cleaned and resynchronized!

Also applied some lithium grease to the rails.

Mine has the same issue. Haven't tried to fix it yet, but that's on the docket for this weekend.

I don't know if it's the same, but on my old C280 you had to remove the map light to access the point where you use that tool.

hu, I have one of these and I always assume the old owner left it in the car while working on a project. You learn something new every day.
