Title: Sunroof
Post by Paulus on Mar 28^th, 2006, 1:36pm

I have just picked up a bargain 24v - with lots of small problems. One of them is that sunroof doesn't seem to sit properly. the front edge is over flush and the back edge is under flush.

What can be done about that? ???

Hmmm. May be either of those I suppose. I picked the car up on Saturday, so I don't know if it has been taken out. How dificult is it to remove the sunroof for an overhaul? ???

Nice one. ;D

I'll try the fix at the weekend.

Well once you drop the motor, it should be fairly straightforward to push the rear edge down then slide back and get at the fixing screws.

Push the rear edge down then slide back. Roof is effectively a drop in cassette, common with a mk3 Granada so if you need a replacement you can visit the breakers.

But before you go that far have a look at this.
