Sunroof not working

My 05 C55 sunroof wasn't opening all the way and it seemed like a weak sunroof motor so I just replaced and it's still having the same issues. It seems like its a weak motor or not getting enough power. Any thoughts?

You, more than likely, need to grease the rails that allow the sunroof glass to slide smoothly. MB service recommends the clear grease they sell at $116+ tax! Here's a url link to an Ebay seller.

Let this Forum know how your repair worked.
