So having been on holiday I had left the Z for 3 weeks, came back and he front was lower than a Lambo!

Front spring had failed, luckily I had a spare so popped it into German motor works and the car was ready in no time.

On the way home the sun made an appearance so i thought I'd put the roof down, nothing! No lights nothing.

After parking up and messing with it for a while i discovered when I turned the wheel a little it sprang into life unlatched and then I could here the motor whirring but that's as far as it got. Turn the wheel again and I can relatch. At the same time the steering was making a groaning noise too...
Now the steering is fine but same problem with roof...

Any suggestions?
 
**UPDATE**

Had the battery charged and now the buttons work fiine without the need to turn the steering wheel. It unlatches but the rood motor just whirs... can fold the top down manually and it locks in place and can put it back up manually and then with the button pressed it latches itself.

Roof motor can be heard but not doing anything... Time to take it out?
