Sunroof
A sunroof is a movable or fixed glass panel in the roof.
What is Sunroof?
Types include tilt, sliding and panoramic roofs. An electric motor moves the panel. Drains carry water away. After battery disconnection, many electric roofs need initialising to restore one-touch and anti-trap functions. Rattles often come from loose guides or worn seals.
How it works
The motor drives cables or a mechanism along guides.
Why it matters for your car
Blocked drains cause leaks. Lubricate guides as recommended.
