Intermittent Roof Fault

[R90GRN]

Hi,

The roof stopped working last weekend, the windows would fall, the roof unlatched and then nothing.... I'd only had the car a week so spoke to the dealer who said according to the forums its probably a fuse or relay?! having done research here could it be the motor?

However a quick run today and I thought why not try again... same thing happened. A quick run up the road (1 mile) then getting back in the car and I thought I'd try with the key, again nothing but I heard a whirring. I started the car, pressed the roof button and it went down (slowly).

When I got home I raised and lowered the roof 3 times (always liked to push my luck...) and it worked a bit quicker!

So before I go back to the dealer in the morning - any ideas?

Whatever the outcome it looks like the drains need to be cleared and the motor relocated. Drains I'm happy to tackle, the motor less so. I'm based in Bromley (South London/Kent border), so who's the local motor guru?

Thanks in advance

No idea personally, but can point you in the right direction

You checked out the forum services section? viewforum.php?f=13

Also what springs to mind is bowser, Hampshire. number5, Bristol (I think). and DLV who is north based... so bit far if you're Kent. Good luck fella

Thanks all. The dealer had done his research and found a guide on here to relocate the motor (he’s a former Jag master tech!!). Now back up and running correctly.
