Hi
Got myself a 2.0 GLS Caravan (M reg). Depreciation to thank there - its got 187K on the clock but is in grand condition. Every time another motor of mine fails its MOT (ie fails to even get to the garage) I swear I'll get something small and hatchbacked and probly rogered by boyracers but I end up with yet another great barge to toddle all around the shop in.

ANyway I was fiddling with the sunroof and it's stuck open - whenever it gets about 3/4 closed and I try to send it all the way closed but clicking the know from the 7 to the 6 o clock position, it goes back all the way open instead. I had a quick feel for an obstruction but can't find one and anyway it worked ok when I was mucking about with it with the bloke I bought it off. Soon as I get me hands on the V5 and get it home, whaddya know....

I saw Admins post on resetting the windows and sunroof but they're from a CLOSED postion. Will fiddling as per the advice there do it? I sort of guessed I should try holding the knob in for a few secs but that didn't work.

Got to do the A38/M5 schlep friday and its going to rain, I know its going to rain...

O BTW the Omega is the best tank I've ever had - gone through quite a few (including some American rustheaps of extraordinary and pointless dimensions). RWD rules.

O and I'm a short girly and even with the seat on max height I still can't see the end of the bonnet. I better be careful had I not then?

adjustment of sunroof
1-turn the ignition on
2-press and hold the sunroof switch until the sunroof closes and the motor is heard to stop turning.release switch
3-turn the sunroof switch to the tilt postion - the motor should set the sunroof to tilt position
4-press and hold the sunroof switch until the sunroof closes and the motor is heard to stop turning.release the switch
5-turn the switch to the fully open position - the motor should slide the sunroof to the fully open position
6-turn the switch to the closed position - the motor should slide the sunroof glass forward
7the preceding steps should allow the sunroof motor control electronics to learn the open,closed amd tilt positions of the sunroofglass.if at any time the adjustment procedure ,the sunroof glass opens un expectedly,repeat the steps in paragraghs 3-7 inclusive as necessary,until operation is satisfactory.
