Hi All,
This is my second only question on the A2 knowledge space, I'm not sure anyone will have a definitive answer but worth an ask. I'm on my second A2 in a year first one 1.4 TDI all good but as I hated driving a diesel I have changed to a fine 1.4 Sport petrol model which is averaging 47.4mpg so I'm happy enough.
OK enough waffle and down to the OPENSKY!
Yesterday I parked up at work on a slight slope (nose of car facing downhill) and slid the sunroof back into place. The roof got almost shut i.e. it was still tilted and there was a slight gap at the front and there was a loud bang/crack sort of snapping sound. The roof stopped right there, obviously I thought the worst and after a quick look at the user manual thought I would wind it manually in. OK so I dropped into the office and then back out to have a word with the car, I thought drive it into the back car park and fix it there out of site. Now as I drove round I held my finger on the close button and once round the corner the roof slid back into place as normal.
I ran the roof back and forward this morning maybe four or five times and it works perfectly apart from it sounds like there is perhaps a bit of extra travel somewhere before the roof engages and opens and same when closing.
Anyone have any idea what might have happened and if I should be looking to get something replaced etc? Anyone who has had similar and can shed any light I would be happy to hear from.
Thanks
