Sunroof Malfunction
#1
![Default](https://landroverforums.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
On a nice day several weeks ago I opened the sunroof but when I got home it wouldn’t close. I power-cycled the truck and it closed as expected. Yesterday was another nice day but when I went to open the sunroof nothing. The sunshade works as expected — it closes when I lock the car and opens when I start it, but the switch is a little finicky when opening and closing manually. It’s a two position rocker switch, so depressing it the the first position opens/closes the sunshade until you release the switch. Depressing it further to the second position triggers the auto open/close. It’s the second position that is flakey on the sunshade. This leads me to suspect it’s an issue with both switches.
I’ll post back once the dealer services it. In the meantime, has anyone else had any issues with either the sunroof or sunshade?

I had the same issue last year in extremely hot days - wouldn’t close - parked it under shade for an hour and it closed.
next day wouldn’t open after being parked in direct sunlight all day so I parked it in the shade for half hour and it opened - I think it’s such a tight fit it expands when hot and won’t budge 🥵
