Introduction
Customers may complain of wind noise from the moon roof when in the closed position. They may also notice that the moon roof sliding panel does not sit flush with the stationary panel when fully closed. This condition is caused by the gradual loss of the ECU's memorized position versus the actual position. If either of these conditions are present, replace the sliding roof drive gear assembly using the following instructions.
