My MCS is acting up again. First I've been having intermitent problems with my gas gauge, and now I went to close my sunroof and without warning it just stopped working. What should I do, any advice?

 

Call Mini Corsa!!!

 

I'm sorry, I'm still a newbie. Who is Mini Corsa?

 

To close it (if still opened), remove your upper sunroof control panel by sliding it backwards (towards you, when seated in the car). You should be able to see an allen-head bolt there...twisting it will manually close the sunroof. Hard to describe any better than that without the Bentley Manual in hand right now.

I couldn't find the allen screw, how do I get to it? Its getting pretty chilly here driving with the sunroof half way open...lol

 

The tool to turn the end of the motor is in the tool kit in the boot left side panel. If you remove the sun roof switch panel you will see the motor it has a allen hole in the shaft of the motor.

 

thanks, let me try that.

 

Interesting... on my '03 MCS, you have to remove the clock in order to gain access to the manual control on the sunroof motor... I thought they moved the clock down to the speedometer in '04? Perhaps I'm just thinking about something else.

I had a similar problem with my sunroof dying on me recently, I did a little research online and fixed my sunroof myself, after I found this blog that featured a very well written and detailed step by step intructional on doing the repair.
