Sunroof Adjustment (vertically)

[thomasso51]

Folks: A response may be posted but I haven't found it. The sunroof on my 94 J30 sits down (towards the interior of the car) a little too much (maybe 1/4"). Can anyone tell me in a rather detailed manner how to adjust it and how to get to the adjustments? Appreciate any help!

does the sun roof work? If you crank it manually will it close correctly?

If it works and cranks to the full closed position (flush with the roof) crank it fully closed and remove the motor now with the motor out crank the motor till the closed position mark lines up and then reinstall the motor. see figure 5 here http://fuzzycats.com/docs/sunroof_repair.pdf

If the moon roof does not work you can put shims between the panel and the mount brackets you will also find there location at the above link.

Thanks my friend, you're a charming guy. That is exactly the answer I needed, and, unpleasantly an answer that isn't simple. But I'll still do it! Thanks again.

I would think just removing the motor access panel shouldn't be too tough.

Your not removing the sunroof.Just calibrating the motor.
