Sunroof not opening?

Hy guys,

i have the non/Magic Sky sunroof on my 17 Coupe and although it has all the buttons the glass is not opening, not even tilting.

Is this normal?

Many thanks

It is unfortunately designed as a fixed panorama roof, so it neither opens nor tilts. The buttons just open and close the sunshade.

I had a sales person at MB Plano trying to sell me a S coupe few years back and he went on and on about how the ride is awesome with the sunroof open.

It's sad how little many of them know about the actual cars they are trying to sell

Back in 2015-2016 I couldn't understand why Mercedes designed it as a fixed pano roof... and then they introduced the cabriolet at a ~ $12k premium. Sucks for those like me who want a roof that can open (at least tilt for ventilation in the summer) but don't want a full convertible

If you want to waste your time. The thing about the guy is that he has told me these kind of absurd things many times but he doesn't remember me which is a good thing.

I agree. I don't want a convertible and would have liked the roof to open. This time around I ordered magic sky control on the 2018 Coupe.
