Sunroof - I need advice on what is happening (is it normal or not) and what my options are

Hi ,

My sunroof started getting bounce back the other day. I took the car to a mechanic and he's pulled the lid off to have a look.

What he's found is the two sides of the sunroof, when operated, are moving at different speeds.

He then said the mechanism that is linked to either side is allowing movement (see video) where it shouldn't allow it.

I've only showed video from one side. The other had movement but not as dramatic.

What he's saying is that there are teeth that have warned down and no longer holding the mechanism which is allowing the movement.

A new cassette is astronomical $$$$

Help ?

Hi Team E30,

Watched a few videos on YT and it looks like the only way to address this is to drop the cross member / raise engine?

Before I tackle this I just want to make sure there's no other way / easier method?

thanks team
