looks like figure 3 is the adjustment, get the thing straight with the allens by turning? I dont read where you loosen or tighten anything to hold it in position tho.
I don’t know how it happened. So far I have removed the headliner from the sunroof support panel (It needed to come off anyway!) Unclipped the two clips to unattach the sunroof from the lining holder (step 2 in Bently).
Front seems misaligned
The back of the sunroof won’t go into the up raised position either.
The Bentley’s manual outlines that an allan key for each side goes in the rails of the sunroof. Figure 5.
Do the allan keys just stay there or do you move them around a bit. I’m a bit lost on this. I tried for a few hours yesterday but didn’t get far Must I adjust the screws do get the sunroof aligned again? Figure 6. I know the manual says do this but I can't see how it will change the alignment. All help appreciated.

Is there a chance that the sunroof is just in need of lubrication vs. out of adjustment? Also, did you try opening/closing it with the engine running? The extra voltage might help.
I'd try the adjustment option as a last resort if it's something that shouldn't "just" go akilter. I'd make sure all the parts are operating smoothly first.

If I remember correctly, I never used any wrenches to lock anything into position. I just figured out about how much I needed to move it, loosened the screws, moved the outer panel, tightened the screws, then used the switch to close the panel. It took a few times to get it right, but it's been fine ever since.
