04 STR Sun Roof / Moon Roof problems with Pictures HOW TO
#21
Hi Abonano,
have the same problem with my (ex-US) 2005 S-Type. Tried to get parts via Webasto in Germany and from the Sunroof Doctor, but both without any result!
Can now buy a complete sunroof from a pre-2002 car, but the partslist shows a different number for the early S-Types.
Do you know/think it will fit, or can I exchange the slider components?
Appreciate your advise in this.

If you get the slider components out - look at the part numbers and reference them to the parts listing numbers.
Hope this helps.

The repair kits all say they fit the 2000-02 cars, am I safe to buy one for my 03, it's doing the crunching thing now.

That's exactly the question, still.
There are no Jaguar partnumbers on these components. and Webasto (Germany) is not informative as well.
Have you got an answer from The Sunroof Doctor - Your source for replacement sunroof & t-top parts! ?

I don't know what I need, the roof has developed a mind of it's own when opening / closing and is crunching pretty good, so something in the tilt slide mechanism, I'll contact the doctors and see what they have to say if no one has the answer here.
I've got it closed now and think it's better to leave well alone until I can source some parts.

With 45C+ daytime temps here, the sunroof isn't a big issue (although aircon and the cooling system are)

I purchased Kit WSRK from the SunroofDoctor.com last year. They stated it would fit my 04 STR. It was listed as being for 00-02 Lincoln LS. Paid $119.00 plus $12 shipping.
It has been a year since I researched it, but the sun roof in our S-types are the same as used in a lot of other cars. A very common module. Our 04 Saturn L300 has the exact same moon roof in it. I took her glass out to compare and see what plastic parts had broken in my S-type.
I haven't wanted to install the kit because I was told you have to remove the head liner to get access to the runners. I did have the glass out and confirmed that the parts in the kit are exactly the same as in my 04 STR.
