Sunroof adjustment specifications
I found these online and figured I would share them here:
Adjusting Both Glass Slide/Tilt Sunroof Lids Adjusting Both Glass Slide/Tilt Sunroof Lids 54 13 002 Adjusting Both Glass Slide/tilt Sunroof Lids Special tools required: 00 9 315 00 9 340 Necessary preliminary tasks: Close glass slide/tilt sunroof completely If the glass slide/tilt sunroof is outside the adjustment tolerances, adjust as follows: Installation: Microencapsulated screws (Loctite) must be replaced and may not be reused Screw connection must be completed within 20 minutes (start of curing) Microencapsulated screws must not be retightened Clean thread of nut beforehand in event of repeated use Adjusting glass slide/tilt sunroof unit: Carry out the following step on one side first and then the other (first left, then right or vice versa): Slacken Torx screws (1) on left/right so that glass roof panel can still just be adjusted. Move glass roof panel as required. Make sure all screws are tightened down. Tightening torque 4AZ Glass panel to mechanism 4 Nm Type: R50 / R53 / R56 NOTE: Replace screws.

Press glass lid (1) at front and rear towards top or bottom until ideal position is reached. Height: Front edge of glass lid at front 0 to 1 mm under roof edge Rear edge of glass lid at front 0 to 0.5 mm over glass lid at rear Rear edge of glass lid at rear 0 to 1 mm over roof edge Check function and adjustment. |
Wanted to add an update to these findings. A little backstory about my '08 MCS. I bought it used about three months ago and my one big complaint was excessive noise from the front edge of the sunroof and a rattle from the sunroof. I implemented these specs for adjustment and in place of the tool to feel the gap resistance, I used a piece of cardstock. My rattle is gone and the wind noise has been cut down substantially. the front gap was not tight enough and the levelness relative to the roof was not even close anywhere. I am a happy camper.
