The interior trim panel isn't too hard to remove. Open the sunroof, remove the wind deflector (pop out the side braces first), including the metal strip and all the screws along the leading edge of the sunroof opening. Remove the sun visors, and enough of the door frame trim to allow the interior trim panel to drop down. The motor should be easy to remove at this point.
My sunroof is out of synch w/ motor stops - in other words it stops about an inch short of closure, then have to press button again. Archive research indicates that I need to resynch motor, which for E36s at least simply requires "bumping" motor until roof closes fully, then removing access panel and removing motor, cycling motor to proper stop position, and reinstall. Does this work for E28s? It doesn't seem easy to remove motor, appears you have to remove interior trim panel which I have no clue how to do. Anyone have any tips?
mine seems to be insynch with the motor but not with the wind diflecter when i close the sunroof it meets head on with the wind deflector and stops. so i have to hold it down and try to time it right so i dont pinch my finger how do i get it back insynch? thanks in advance ~JOHN BANNER~
