If I push the open button it just churns on the motor til I punch the ceiling. It usually depends on the weather and if its rained and the roof was closed and dried and a seal was made. Generally I just WD-40 the side tracks and front every now and then to help it. The WD-40 seems to help a lot.<P>- Meg

The same thing happens to mine too after it rains....the moisture makes the rubber form a really tight seal, so tight that the motor alone won't open the sunroof. All I do is gently push it up at the back to help it get going.
