I've noticed when i put my roof down the rear screen gets slightly stuck as it's folding back on itself and then kinda pops free making a bit of a sound. The roof goes up and down fine, it's just this clonk when it free's itsef from the folds on the times it catches.

has anybody had this problem and is it ok to leave or is there a fix?

Thanks

I've noticed mine does it as well. I have watched my roof closing and have found it's the roof liner catching on the lock mechanism between the headrests. The roof lining doesn't appear to be slack or drooping when closed. The roof does go fully down OK but I'm afraid the roof liner will fray in time. Anyone any ideas?

Mine is getting worse, I've got a feeling it's something to do with the tension in the foof fabric, mine is in on Thursday to a BMW indie until then anyone any ideas? :headbang:
