Help please anyone,

I can hear the motor operate for a couple of seconds on switching for open and then for a couple of seconds on switching for closed, but sunroof will not move. I understand from other sites there are a couple of plastic pins connecting the lifting arms to the operating cable which break, and have purchased new pins from dealer, but am unable to lift sunroof to get at them. Any ideas?

You should be able to unscrew the sunroof and remove it.

Thanks for reply Tech, but cant see any screws to unscrew, my understanding is that once the sunroof is up there are two allen screws on the end of the lifting arms which unscrew allowing the glass to be removed and access gained to replace the broken pins. However I cannot see how to lift the sunroof manually, do I need to remove the headlining to get access to screws? :blush:
