Accessing roof motors

Post by Idris » Sun Jun 22, 2014 10:35 am

What do I need to remove to get at these? Roof suck down - the system beeps but no motor sound.

Searches say need to remove headlining? do I need to remove the upper side trim first? or can I just remove the headlining?

Do I need to undo the whole roof (all the bolts/screws I can find?) or just something specific?

I'm guessing they are down the rear at the side, can't I just undoo the hinges and lift the rear of the roof?

Thanks Tom

I believe Allan has a description of how to raise the back of the AFT only to gain access - search his website
