Has anyone else had the half setting on their sunroof stop working? Now, when I push the button in partway it does nothing. This used to pop up the sunroof without actually sliding it back. If I push the button in all the way the thing still opens and closes though...

Would this be something that is covered under warranty?

 

Yupp..

Does your sunroof move when all windows are closed and you shut a door? Mine would pop up from the pressure.

I complained and they said they had to replace the carriage system that there was a lock tab or something missing.

I also told them that sometimes the button would not always work. I noticed that the switch was on an angle..

They ended up changing the entire switch.

Hope this helps

 

I'm assuming you tried cycling it full open and closed once or twice?? Sometimes the programming catches it half open or something, I have had that happen, but usually if I fully open and close it, then it starts working again.

 

my sunroof sometimes doesnt work, and the switch feels funny, like i have to push it harder then i should, or sometimes it opens but sounds really boggy and rough

 

Half setting? Okay, I got my car in Feb 07, but as far as I knew, the Sunroof toggle switch is either fwd or backward. If I let it go it stops, if that's what you mean by "Half setting"

 

no by half setting he means vent as opposed to fully open

 

Ahh so he clicked it once, just to pop it!
I was ready to look for another button!

 

I hadn't actually but thanks for the idea. I'll give it a try when I drive to work this morning.

More on the half setting that someone asked about. When you push the button just a little bit it will "vent" the sunroof but not actually push it back. This is the setting I use most often so I really hope it isn't messed up!

 

I thought it was normal, thanks for the tips i'll get it repaired

 

mine works fine but everytime I use it I have to push the bezel back into place..or it will rattle like hell

 

Update - I tried opening and closing the thing several times on my way to work today and didn't notice a change. I was going to take it to the dealership after work today but after I left work I tried again and now everything works. I guess it was the combination of opening and closing as well as the key cycle. Anyways, everything seems to be back to normal now.

 

Mine went too today... at least i know its not me.

 

mine did the same thing for a few weeks last summer, but it just stopped it by itself and its worked great ever since, it was really annoying for a while, like that part of the switch just wasnt working, then one day, no more, oh well,

 

Mine has been doing the same **** since last october. Went to the dealer and the damn thing worked when I got there. The tech greased everything and said you are all set, worked for about 4 months and did it again yesterday, today it works. my switch is also setting lopsided I guess I will have to take it back YAAAAAAA!!!!

They need to do a recall on the DAMN thing because I am tired of the ****!!!

 

doubt they'd do a re-call on something intermittent like that, they'll say something like "you must be smashing on the button to open the sun roof, you broke it" lol

 

If you have an '05, there is a recall on the sunroof button. Just take your car in and complain that the button fell off and you had to press it back on, or that it was crooked like that. There is a bulletin for all 05s with that problem to update the design.

 

mine does it...cant get it to happen when im in service tho

 

Mine does it once and awaile but it is so far and few between times when it happens that I just dont worry about it.

 

Mine started working again.. this is going to be fun!!.. Does anyone know if its the switch or in the computer or elsewhere?

 

If your switch is crooked like mine I bet its in the switch, just guessing.

 

Okay, a little off topic but...
Can someone tell me, when the sunroof is 'totally' open, does about 1/4 of the glass still stick out of 'the car' and not go all the way inside? It seems mine only pushes 3/4 of the way in...? Or is this normal. I want MORE SUN

 

uhm doesnt the roof go OUTSIDE the car?? mine does...u must have an aftermarket sunroof and yeah they open like 2 inches which is el shittay

 

Wow. I really didn't explain properly! Yah, your right it goes inside the car I guess I meant that only 3/4 of it pushes back and that 1/4 of it is still visible inside the car. Okay, so that's normal then. Thanks for replying.

 

min does the same thing, half settings keep on failling and come back to normal.....pissing my off. next time ill go to the dealer.

my switch is also bending by the passenger side....look broken or something, i dont know, i am not pushing that button hard.

 

Knock on wood I have no problems with my sunroof. Except I'd like MORE SUN!! But then that's why they invented convertibles.
