    Default Help, my sunroof has sunk!

    As in, the top of the sunroof no longer lines up with the roof of the car. It's 'sunken' down about a centimeter. I can push it back up from the interior, but it won't stay. Did a clip or something break? I can't see anything obviously broken. Please help, the wind noise and it bouncing up and down whenever I hit a bump is driving me nuts!

    I think there is some adjustment procedure that the bentley covers.

    You have to unclip the fabric from inside, slide it back into the roof. You'll see one screw at each corner which in your case will probably be loose. Push the panel up until its flush and tighten the screws.(Two man job)

    Didn't even think of checking, sure enough, it's got exactly what I need. Page 540-2 in case anyone else is having the same problem.
