I open the roof with the key fob until its at an angle to stay while I clean the window.

My roof stops moving the moment I take my finger off the key/button

get an e86 ... press the roundell , the whole tailgate opens up and clean the inside of the window, another bonus, about 500 less parts to go wrong as the car gets older

It is just as difficult in my E85, might try one of these.

Re: How to clean inside rear window (E89)
I use newspaper to rub on the windows (all), inside and out. The real windows require some stretch. I'd advise caution to clean it while the roof is partially retracted, as the mechanical force on them may damage the pantographic mechanism.
