A3 cabriolet roof problem

Hi all, firstly thank you for admitting me, had my cab 3 yrs now, absolutely no issues whatsoever....

Until now, the cab roof has decided to pack up.

I raised the roof halfway and stopped it, while I cleaned the seals, whilst distracted it came down under its own weight,  I switched back on and it closed as normal.  Then rained for a month.....

Came to use it, windows retracted, roof released, then nothing..  

Dash display  "roof cannot be used"

Any tips, or know of a technician in the Manchester area??

Best regards 

Garry

If it's hydraulic operated I wonder if the roof coming down on its own under the weight and pressure has damaged the pump. Is there any noise from the pump? Also id recommend a diagnostic check to see if there's any fault codes.
