Default Sunroof = Broken

the sunroof is officially broken. When I hit the button it seems like one side moves while the other remains stationary and the whole thing grinds to an undignified halt. Awesome. Somebody please tell me they've been there before and tell me it can be fixed. A technical PDF about removing the Sunroof would be extremely appreciated as well....

I have listed the sunroof repair TSB in both X300 and X308 versions (identical).
You need to have a few days and 10 posts to download.

Look in the sticky section.

Do a search on JTIS. There have been many threads on downloading and installing this software.

You gotta admit... very effective tactics.
And I got a chuckle or two out of it.

Hey Kevin... you're suspended for 3 games!

All of the responses above your post were on point and useful even if they did not reach your level of approval.

You received a warm welcome and advice about JTIS when you first joined 5 months ago:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-issues-60945/

In addition to the referenced stickies, sunroof threads are sprinkled all over the section going back years.

Forums are for *gathering* information, not *demanding* instant gratification.
