Just tonight, i try to open my sunroof all the way back and it gets stuck about 1/4 of an inch and doesn't budge. I can tilt it open but it wont retract. Bad motor? It was working fine when i opened and closed it 10 minutes before it stopped working. I don't think something could be stuck, but then again i dont know much about the sunroof.

as you open it try giving the roof a little push,you can feel a ridge underneath(or on top?) of the fabric about half way back.Mine did this but a little lube did the trick...You need to have it open though.If the motoer still wont move it you can open roof manually
