– Loosen the end eyes -3 and 6- on tensioning bands-2 and 5- on the outside of the main hinge.

– Remove tensioned headliner without loosening additional ten‐sioning bands. Refer to⇒ “2.6.6 Tensioned Headliner, Removing”, page 248

– Remove tensioned headliner rail. Refer to⇒ “2.6.13 Tensioned Headliner Rail, Removing”, page 261 .

Note

♦ When the luggage compartment trim is installed, make sure the support is not positioned in the opening onthe longitudinal member.

♦ The bypass screw on the hydraulic pump must be opened after the repair position has been reached onvehicle from May 2007. This prevents damaging the hydraulic system.

– Place the hinge supports -VAS 6365- in the mounting hole inthe main hinge -1- and rotate the base -4- so that it is not posi‐tioned in the opening in the longitudinal.

– Switch the ignition off. The roof lowers in stages until the sup‐ports are resting on the longitudinal member.



– Remove screws -3- and remove sunroof motor -2- from mount-4-.

Note

Remove glass panel only with help from another colleague.



– First mark position of sliding blocks -7-.

– Only loosen screws -6- on sliding block -7-, do not remove.

– Move the roof pillar toward the outside -arrow a- until the slider-3- in the slotted guide rail -4- can be guided over to front guiderails -2- without touching -arrow b-.

– Pull the glass panel out approximately 25 cm.



– Loosen the cables -2- on the glass panel -1- from the left andright slotted guide rails -3-.

– Remove glass panel with slotted guide rail parallel out of rearguide rails -b arrows-. Raise front edge of glass panel slightly-arrow a-.

Installing

Note

♦ Make sure all components such the slider and bracket are installed.♦ The sliders -6- in the slotted guide rail -8- are coated in rubber up to the slider -11-.♦ The washer -9- must fit exactly into the openings. The glass panel will make noises if the guiding edge is

damaged.♦ The lower brace -12- faces downward, as illustrated.



– Place the sliders -6 and 11- on the slotted rail -8-.

– Install the bracket and all the individual parts in this sequence:

♦ Screw -10- washer -9-, bracket -12-, washer -5-, glass panel-1-.

♦ Screw -10-, washer -9-, guide -8-, washer -5-, bracket -12-.

Note

Install glass panel only with help from another colleague.



– Guide glass panel guide rails into rear guide rails.

Glass panel must be guided horizontally -a arrows- and parallelwhen doing this.

– Move roof pillar far enough toward outside -b arrows- so thatguide rail slider does not touch the front guide rails.

– Further installation is performed in the reverse order of re‐moval.

2.1.2 Glass Panel CablesRemoving

Note

♦ All screws are microencapsulated and must always be replaced.♦ Screw tightening torque: 3 Nm.



– Loosen the end eyes -3 and 6- on tensioning bands-2 and 5- on the outside of the main hinge.

– Remove tensioned headliner without loosening additional ten‐sioning bands. Refer to⇒ “2.6.6 Tensioned Headliner, Removing”, page 248







Note


♦ To support roof, both sides of luggage compartment trim should be either removed or installed.♦ The bypass screw on the hydraulic pump must be opened after the repair position has been reached on

vehicle from May 2007. This prevents damaging the hydraulic system.

– Loosen the glass panel cables -2- from the slotted guide rails-3-.

– Remove cables from rear guide rails.

Installing



– Guide glass panel cables -2- into rear guide rails.

– Insert glass panel cables -2- in guide rail mount -3-.

Note

The -arrow- points to the direction of travel.



– Place sunroof motor -2- in mount on guide tube -4-.

– Install 3 bolts 3-3-, tightening specification 4.5 Nm.

– Crank glass panel back as far as “stop” using emergency op‐eration.

– Position sliding blocks on applied markings and tightenscrews. Tightening specification: 9.5 Nm.

– Close the CSC roof and remove the hinge supports -VAS6365- .

2.1.3 Sunroof MotorRemoving



The glass panel remains closed.

– Remove tensioned headliner without loosening tensioningbands. Refer to⇒ “2.6.6 Tensioned Headliner, Removing”, page 248 .



Installing

Note

♦ The sunroof motor is equipped with a closing force limit. If the roof runs into an obstacle during the closingprocedure, the motor stops and the glass panel moves in the opposite direction.

♦ If the glass panel is closed a second time with the switch, it runs with increased closing force. If the glasspanel still runs into an obstacle, it runs once again in the opposite direction.

♦ If the glass panel is closed a third time using the switch, it runs without a closing force limit.♦ All screws are microencapsulated and must always be replaced.





– Place sunroof motor -2- on mount -4- and tighten screws -3-.Tightening specification: 4.5 Nm.

Both a re-installed sunroof motor and a new sunroof motor mustalways be adapted.

♦ Pull switch, glass panel -1- closes.

♦ Pull switch a second time, glass panel closes with increasedclosing force.

♦ Pull switch a third time, glass panel closes without closingforce limit.

In this way, the sunroof motor is adapted and learns the zero po‐sition.

– Install tensioned headliner rail. Refer to⇒ “2.6.14 Tensioned Headliner Rail, Installing”, page 262 .

– Install the tensioned headliner. Refer to⇒ “2.6.7 Tensioned Headliner, Installing”, page 251 .
