Angry 2011 G550 Sunroof Stuck in tilt position

Hello All! Just got a '11 G550, Black on Black. Love it so far.
When I was test driving the car, I opened the Sunroof and it was making this sound going back and forward as if it was not on its track or something... but was opening and closing fine. After I bought the car, I tilted the sunroof up and it opened fine, but I realized the tilt up was not even, it was more open on one side. So i kind of forced the other side to popup also at the same level, and it did... so now it is even. But the problem is that when I close it, it does not close completely. It does not completely close from the side where I pushed it up... any help ? Is there a manual way to close it?

So I think I know what it is..it is not closing completly because from teh passenger side, when tilt is closed, it sits on top of the rubber seal and does not completely close.. somehow when I had pushed it up, it moved maybe a cm toward the back of the car, and now it sits on the seal... any ideas, what I can do? I have tried slightly forcing it towards teh front of the car, but no help.
