Sunroof won't close

[GraemeRobertson]

Hi,

New member here, so hi all.

I have a 2018 S3 with the panoramic sunroof. I opened it yesterday when I popped out briefly, but I couldn't get it to close.

I hear a click sound when I press the button, so i don't think it's dead. It just doesn't move. I've checked for blockages and I can't see any.

Obviously this isn't ideal from a security and weatherproofing standpoint. Does anyone have any tips on where to look? Is there a way of closing it manually?  The manual suggests it can be closed manually, then just says pull and hold the switch which doesn't work. 

Any suggestions welcome.

For any who are interested; I just went out and closed it. Not working for half a day, suddenly working now. Perhaps a dodgy switch or temperature related in some magical way. who knows. 

I won't be opening it again until after lockdown 🙂

Welcome to the forum Graeme, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 

Glad it's sorted. Is it worth checking the runners to make sure there's nothing jamming it. 

Cheers

Steve
