Phaeton :: Sunroof Wouldn't Close While Parked

I had my first potential problem happen yesterday. I parked my car in a parking lot and my sunroof wouldn't close. I think that the pinch protection was the culprit because it started to close and would open when there was about a 3 inch gap. It never closed but when I drove away and tried it again in motion it closed.

Phaeton :: What Is The Function Of Button In Sunroof Dial

I have quick question that probably has an equally quick answer. When I press up on one end of the sunroof control dial, it makes a click. I can only push it up when the dial is in the 'roof closed' position. I've read somewhere that this 'button' should do something, but when I press it nothing happens. Do pushing up the sunroof control dial is supposed to do anything?

Phaeton :: Sunroof Spontaneously Opened And Closed By Itself While Driving?

Happened 2 days ago, just as it started to rain. The sunroof opened about 15 cm, then just as I was starting to try to close it, it then closed itself by reversing smoothly.

Since then the sun roof has operated normally. I have waited for this problem to repeat, but it hasn't. For the first time, I tried to do a search, but failed using the key words "Sun Roof" and "moon roof". Since I know there has been several threads regarding the repair of the opening dial using a Bic pen casing, I know I am performing the search incorrectly. Issue only has happened once, and my hands were nowhere near the opening dial.

Touareg :: How To Disassemble Center Console

My wife spilled some cola from the cup holders in the center console and it got into the Hi/Low range rotary switch and the stability control button. Now the button and switch are all sticky and barely work. Looking for instructions on how to take the center console apart so I can get to those switches and wash them out with alcohol or something to get them working again...

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Disassemble Dome / Map Lights?

How to do this without breaking anything? The other day I noticed a spider somehow got into my passenger map light and died in there. I have trim removal tools and stuff but I'm hesitant to go blind on this one for fear of breaking some clips or breaking the whole thing because I missed a screw or something like that. It doesn't seem like you can just take the plastic lens off the light, so I'm not sure how to proceed.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: How To Disassemble 1AAuto Mirror

got a quick question, i have the 1aauto 2008+ mirrors on my truck. How do you take the mirrors apart? When it rains or i wash the truck the bottom of the mirror fills up with water, and it slowly drips all over my doors when i drive the truck and when i open or shut the doors the water sloshes around and again gets all over my door. I want to remove the bottom piece (if it comes off) and drill two drain holes, i would do it on the mirror still but im afraid id hit the wires or something for the heated/power functions

Sunroof Doesn't Just Open All The Way?

I was driving to work this morning and went to open my sunroof and as I always do I hit the button and it opens to a point, then I hold the button down and it opens another inch or so. I realized I always do that, open it that little extra.

My curiosity is why doesn't it just open all the way? What's the point of that little extra bit? I am sure it has something to do with air flow.

Passat (B5) :: Sunroof Opened On Its Own?

Came in on a cool cloudy morning to work. I listened to the torrential downpours all morning, then it cleared out. When I went out to the lot at quitting time, I was horrified to see the sunroof open. When I got in the car, it was dry, so sometime after the storms moved out, it got opened. I do leave the car unlocked, but can't imagine someone opened it, in fact I think you can't after the key has been removed for a while. Should I pull the fuse to it???

Bmw - X3 :: Sunroof And All Windows Opened By Their Selves

I parked my BMW X3 in my driveway yesterday and then went inside. I live in Oregon and it's been cold and raining for the last several weeks. When my wife and I went to get in the car about an hour later, we discovered that the sun roof and all four windows were wide open and the interior was soaking wet. I certainly didn't open the windows and sun roof. I've probably opened the sun roof once in the three years we've owned the car, and, with all the cold and rain the last several weeks, I've had no reason to open any of the windows. While the car was left unlocked, I did not leave my keys in the car and we live on a fairly private cul-de-sac. I'm baffled as to how this could happen and I can't even come up with a theory.

Golf/GTI VI :: Sunroof Opens By Itself

Today my sunroof tilted open all by itself while I was driving, then it closed it by itself. Then it did it all over again.

A week ago it tilted open, I closed it by moving the switch to full open, then close.

In another post ("Sunroof Problem") I found one mention of this problem and the switch was the culprit.

I had to have the switch replaced?
