Sunroof Problems
#1

I've got a 2003 Vanden Plas and the sunroof does not close properly. I have to hold the button to open and it closes with one touch but goes past the stop and opens to vent. I can only close it by trying to stop it when it cycles? Can anyone help? Also it looks like there may also be a problem with the seal. Is this common?

If you tap and release the button, it auto opens, or closes. It likely needs the cable adjusted. That is found under the center ceiling console.
Also, the seal issue. If you are seeing light around it, but not getting a leak in your car, you are ok. It does not seal completely. If you are getting water in, then the drain tubes are likely plugged. There's one in each corner under the Sunroof Panel. Water does get past the Roof Panel, but it drains out of the holes. That's the normal design.

Thanks to motorcarman I dropped the roof console, pulled out the ecu and lined up the timing marks. Popped it back in to find that it was loose when I removed it as the clip at the back was not tight in the ceiling. I made sure it was tight and the 8mm spacing was correct and works perfectly!
I love this site and the kindness of other members is fantastic.
